Ceramic & Lingual Braces at London City Smiles
When you think of braces, you’re likely to either picture a steel fixture or clear aligners. However, other forms of braces hold other benefits and are greatly effective.
However, ceramic braces are made in this material because they look subtle, matching the shade of your teeth. The smooth material is discreet and comfortable.
Lingual braces are equally as effortless and subtle, being fixed on the other side of your teeth than the braces you’d normally expect.
The Benefits
Ceramic braces are incredibly tough. The material can withstand a lot of different things we consume daily.
While the approach of fitting braces on the other side of your teeth might seem unusual at first, it works just as effectively as the more common form of braces.
The subtlety and colour of ceramic braces make them hugely attractive to many, you too can experience why they’re increasingly popular.
Because of where the braces are situated, onlookers will hardly notice that you’re wearing braces at all.
These types of braces also make it easier to keep the forward-facing surfaces of your teeth clean. You won’t need to navigate around wires to clean your teeth properly.

FAQ

For more information, fill out a consultation form and see how we can help.
Consultations tell us what exactly you’re looking for and give us a chance to tell you all the important information before anything is fitted.
Now we can begin the treatment; you’ll need to have a digital scan of your mouth so our dentists can fit ceramic or lingual braces that are just for you.
On your next visit, your dentist will painlessly fit your braces into your mouth so that the realignment process can begin. This is done by applying a gel to the teeth that is adhesive so your braces won’t move.
You will require check-ins now and then to refit the braces and assess the condition of your mouth. These periodic visits can be booked over the telephone or by contact form.
