Your smile is one of the first features people notice, and your smile maybe even more noticeable if it’s slightly crooked or misaligned. However, our orthodontist Dr. Frank Andolino also understands that it’s just as important to have a discrete set of braces as it is to achieve amazingly straight results. This is why our New York orthodontic team is proud to provide Incognito braces to children and adults who are looking for subtler ways to correct their bite issues.
What are Incognito braces?
If you aren’t a candidate for Invisalign this doesn’t mean that you can’t get a more subtle orthodontic treatment that won’t be visible when you smile. You could be an ideal candidate for Incognito braces, which are a type of lingual braces that involves bonding brackets and wires to the back of your teeth rather than the front. They function in the same way as traditional braces, but as you might imagine, by placing this state-of-the-art orthodontic treatment on the back of your teeth we can make your treatment invisible to everyone around you.
Who is a good candidate for Incognito braces?
Lingual braces may be a great option for teens and adults who are looking for a less visible form of braces. Incognito braces can be used to treat,
Crowding
Protruding teeth
Spaces between teeth
Open bites
Crossbites
If you are dealing with any of these issues Doctor Andolino can determine whether Incognito braces are right for you.
Should I get Incognito braces or Invisalign?
There are a lot of discreet orthodontic options on the market these days that can help you get a straight smile; however, Incognito braces may be less visible than other types, since they are bonded to the back of the teeth. Incognito braces also offer custom-made brackets that perfectly fit your teeth.
