Lingual Braces in Burbank, CA
An Invisible Approach to Orthodontics
Lingual braces are attached to the tongue-side (inner surface) of your teeth, keeping them completely hidden from view while gently straightening your smile. They provide the same dependable results as traditional braces—often with custom brackets and digital treatment planning—making them an excellent option for professionals, performers, or anyone seeking truly discreet orthodontics without sacrificing effectiveness.
Start Your Smile Journey
Choose a discreet, behind-the-teeth solution for a straighter smile. With custom lingual appliances, flexible scheduling, and digital monitoring, you can achieve efficient tooth movement—without visible brackets during work, performances, photos, or special events. Financing options are available to keep treatment accessible and convenient.
What Are Lingual Braces?
Lingual braces are an advanced orthodontic solution placed behind the teeth for patients who want straighter teeth without visible brackets or wires. Instead of being bonded to the front surfaces, custom brackets and wires are attached to the tongue side of your teeth. This hidden placement allows them to function like traditional braces—gently guiding teeth into alignment—while remaining out of sight.
With lingual braces, you receive the full benefits of orthodontics—without the appearance of traditional front-facing brackets and wires.
