Which Specific Lingual Braces Would Be Best For Me?

March 25th, 2013
Q.

Hi there. Okay so after having looked myself I have started to get a  bit of a headache because there are so many different types of lingual braces on here and I’m finding it hard to distinguish them all from each other. Could you briefly tell me which would be best for me? I have two missing back teeth and my two front teeth are slightly twisted…other than that my teeth are all relatively straight. I’d like a general idea from a professional so that I can get a good start on saving the money. Thanks ever so much.

Will lingual braces take longer than regular braces to straighten teeth?

February 6th, 2013
Q.

Can you please help me with my situation dr patel. If I have a lingual brace will it take longer to have the treatment than getting the standard kind of equipment for this at the dentist. I know that when you have a brace on the front f your teeth it pulls the teeth apart. I can see how it would do this but I don’t understand how a lingual brace can physically pull teeth apart and if it can I don’t see how it would do it so quickly? thanks for your time and I hope you can answer me.

Can I get Damon braces that are fitted to the back of the teeth?

October 31st, 2012
Q.

Hi. I have looked at a few braces and am torn as to which one to have I like the look of a few and have drawn up a shortlist on my own. I do intend to take it to the dentist and see what he thinks of it and which methods are best but I though I’d try and get some background on each first. I like the look of the damon brace and have read a lot of good reviews about it. is it possible to have the damon brace on the back of teeth? i like the idea of a lingual brace but have seen good things of the damon. however the damon is always on the front of the teeth and i wondered if this was for a reason or whether it was just easier/cheaper to do this. could you please help me with this and to expand, is it only the stb and incognito brace that you can have on the back of teeth? thanks

How much would it cost me to have full mouth Incognito braces?

October 31st, 2012
Q.

Hello my apologies if this is brief/not enough detail but I need some advice. I am no longer able to get braces free on NHS so I figured I’d get some smart braces if I was going to be paying for it anyway. I have overlapped teeth slightly and wanted incognito braces but I here how expensive they are and that brackets are x amount each. How much apprximately would a full mouth cost to fit with this system? I am convinced it would work as my teeth are not abnormal just have crossed a bit? thank you

What is the difference between Incognito braces and Invisalign?

September 7th, 2012
Q.

hi can you tell me the difference between incognito and invisalign? i’m trying to do a bit of research on the discreet braces as i’m in full time employment right now and don’t fancy everyone knowing that i have braces. in terms of comfort which is better in your opinion? my friend had braces and suffered a lot of problems with them and couldn’t speak very well for a while. as my job involves speaking to customers i can’t afford to be speaking bad! cheers, sandy.

I have two very crooked front teeth, will lingual braces fix them?

June 29th, 2012
Q.

Hello there, i wondered if you could help me? I have long considered getting braces for my crooked front teeth. There is not a lot of teeth that are crooked mainly just the two at the front which are not straight and this can sometimes have a very negative effect on how I am feeling on any given day. I would like to know what is the effectiveness of lingual braces in such a case and if it would be a suitable option for myself? Is there any other braces option you feel would be better?

I don’t mind having a brace but do I have to have one of those on the front of my teeth?

April 24th, 2012
Q.

Hi Mr Patel I have been told that I will need to have braces. I don’t mind and actually quite want to have them in order to straighten my teeth. If I can help it though I don’t want the ones on the front of the teeth as I don’t like these. I learned of the lingual braces and the different types of linguals I could get. I was wondering how long it would take to have lingual braces put on? I like the look of the incognito brace, is the better and would it take longer to put on or not? thanks

Are there different types of lingual brace?

March 16th, 2012
Q.

Hello. as a 25 year old assistant teacher I don’t feel that traditional braces offer the look of proffesionalism in the workplace. as a reslult I had thought about having a lingual brace. I know there are differnt types of brace (I can see a list of them on the side of the page here) but they are all different as some are on the front of the teeth and the linguals are on that back. what I want to know is that, there are many different types of brace I can see that are for the front but how many different types of brace are there for the back of the teeth or is there just the one option? thanks

Can I swap from stb lingual braces to incognito?

March 2nd, 2012
Q.

Hi Darsh I had lingual braces fitted ages ago. about five/six months now and I don’t particularly like them as I haven’t got used to them. my tongue still feels like it has no room and i thought I would be used to this b now but no. I still have about a year or slightly more to wear them. I was wondering if i could change my treatment in conjuction with my treatment plan or with the minimum change to it? I wuold like to try the incognito as they look slightly less obtrusive. wouold this be possible or would it require starting all over again? thanks for your time Dr 🙂
