One of the systems we use is the Social 6 lingual brace. This system is ideal for minor to moderate crowding or spacing affecting the front teeth and typically takes only 3-4 months to achieve the desired results.
The brackets are only placed on the front 6 upper or lower teeth. The canine teeth act as the anchors of the brace (they cannot be corrected) with the aims of aligning the front 4 incisor teeth making it a truly cosmetic brace.
The major benefits include:
- Totally invisible
- Treats minor to moderate crowding or spacing of the front teeth with maximum control and no compliance issues
- Comfortable
- Quick treatment
- Minimal impact on speech and lifestyle
Please be aware , although this is a fantastic brace, there are limitations to what can be achieved. If you constantly look at your teeth in the mirror and have high expectation for treatment, this is NOT the treatment for you. In this case, full arch lingual braces or Invisalign Full would be the options of choice.
