How Do Invisible Lingual Braces Work?
It’s not like having visible metal braces is something to be embarrassed about, but Swedish Dental Clinic realizes that some people may be worried about how their smile will look with braces. From that perspective, Swedish Dental Clinic’s orthodontists offer lingual braces in Dubai for anyone looking to correct their smile seamlessly.
Just like traditional metal braces, lingual retainers apply pressure to designated areas in the jawbone to shift the teeth to the desired proper position. However, the significant difference, and what makes lingual braces appealing to orthodontic patients, is that they are attached to the back of the tooth crown instead of the front, hiding the brackets and lingual wires.
Unlike other labial braces in Dubai, you won’t have to worry about the hassle of taking the aligners off and putting them back on. You also won’t have to keep track of how long you’ve worn them each day or set reminders to remember to wear them in the first place. Lingual braces stay in your mouth all the time, straightening your beautiful smile discreetly from behind the teeth.
Similar to other orthodontic treatments you can get at the Swedish Dental Clinic, inside braces will effectively change the alignment of your teeth. Our dentists will advise you on the best possible treatment for your case, depending on the severity of the misalignment. However, braces on the back of the teeth are usually ideal for overbite, protruding upper teeth, and crossbite cases.
Of course, the treatment won’t deliver the same results for everyone; that’s why it’s crucial to look for a specialized orthodontist in Dubai who will prioritize the patient’s benefit and discuss your treatment plan comprehensively before proceeding with the orthodontic treatment.
Benefits of Getting Lingual Braces in Dubai
Swedish Dental Clinic is a leading dental clinic in Dubai, and having your ceramic braces, or any other orthodontic retainer, done by one of its expert orthodontists will help you get your desired results faster and without wasting time on ineffective treatments.
Behind-the-teeth braces work wonders behind the scenes; that’s where their power lies! There are a lot of benefits that you can reap from lingual braces, and they include the benefits that accompany conventional braces:
- Fix misaligned and crooked teeth seamlessly
- Close any undesired gaps and fix crowded teeth
- Enjoy continuous improvements without worrying about the appearance of braces
- Improve your smile without the need to take the braces off and then put them back on
- Hidden braces allow you to talk and smile unbothered.
The Ideal Candidate for Lingual Braces
Virtually anyone who requires an orthodontic treatment and can adequately maintain long-term fixed retainers can get lingual braces in Dubai. However, since cases may differ significantly, it’s best to leave the decision until your consultation appointment at Swedish Dental Clinic’s dental office.
Our professional dental care providers will inform you of the best orthodontic treatment options to treat your condition and reach your desired goals no matter what they are. So, don’t hesitate to contact us and find out if lingual braces are right for you!
The ideal candidate for behind-the-teeth, incognito braces usually is an adult patient who has the following:
Good Oral Hygiene
Lingual braces, like other permanent retainers, require extra attention while cleaning. That’s why it’s ideal that the patient who will get behind-the-teeth braces already practices a good oral hygiene routine.
Healthy Gums
It’s crucial to check the periodontal health of any person who needs an orthodontic treatment before proceeding with the treatment plan. If any issues are overlooked, they will be much harder to treat after the braces are installed. Swedish Dental Clinic’s dentists make sure that never happens with any patient.
No Deep Overbite
Although incognito braces are perfect for treating many dental alignment issues, it’s ideal that you thoroughly discuss your case with your doctor to know what results you can expect. Patients with a significantly deep overbite may not see the results they desire with lingual braces soon enough because the pressure administered on the brackets might cause them to come off the back of the tooth too often.
The Process of Getting Hidden Lingual Braces in Dubai
Any treatment at Swedish Dental Clinic starts with a detailed consultation; our dental care professional will inspect your teeth and jaw structure, determine any problem, such as tooth decay, and discuss the concerns you may have.
Our dental care providers will take your medical record, including x-rays and photos of your smile, teeth, and face, to monitor your progress over the course of the treatment.
The orthodontist will study your case and decide on a personalized treatment plan that delivers your desired results. Then, after agreeing on the plan and discussing its details, we will work on manufacturing custom-made brackets specifically for your teeth’s shape and positioning.
Before bonding the brackets to the back of your teeth, you will receive a thorough dental cleaning, removing tartar, scaling, and polishing your teeth so they are completely prepared for the bonding procedure.
Afterward, your orthodontist will place the braces behind your teeth with bonding material and insert the retainer wires. You will be given instructions on maintaining and taking care of your lingual aligners. We recommend that the patient attends regular checkup appointments every 6-4 weeks or when necessary, but throughout the treatment phase, they won’t have to worry about anyone noticing their braces!
Once the desired alignment is achieved, your orthodontist will remove the dental braces and clean your teeth; you can get a teeth whitening if you wish. You will also receive custom-made retainers to ensure the position after treatment lasts as long as possible and does not relapse to the original position.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions About Lingual Braces in Dubai
Braces behind the teeth are just as effective as regular braces, and they even perform better in certain cases.
They are definitely more effective than removable retainers, which require the patient’s effort to remember and use them, as they adjust the teeth’ position throughout the entire time of the treatment while remaining hidden and unnoticeable.
Depending on their specialty and training, the orthodontic services vary from one dentist to another.
Although lingual braces deliver results effectively, they use entirely different techniques than traditional braces applied to the front of the tooth. That’s why if you’re interested in behind-the-teeth braces, you should discuss the matter early on with your orthodontist.
Braces, in general, are not painful. You can expect to experience slight discomfort within the first week of installing your braces. However, it will fade away gradually.
If you experience any pain or significant discomfort while wearing your braces, you must check with your dentist to find out the cause.
Braces usually take anywhere between 12-24 months, and lingual braces fall in the same category. However, the treatment time could be less or more, depending on the severity of the misalignment.
This depends on the type of orthodontic issue; lingual braces perform just as effectively as other braces in numerous situations. However, there are certain cases where the pressure applied to the brackets is too much, causing them to come off frequently.
Discussing your case with our specialized orthodontist will better enlighten you on the situation and help you make the right decision.
