Can any malocclusion be corrected?

Usually yes. Unlike Invisalign, which is only indicated for certain mild to moderate cases, lingual orthodontics can solve most of the orthodontics situations, even difficult cases involving extractions.

Does it hurt or bother too much?

Usually no. As with conventional appliances, there is a period of adaptation of some weeks, sometimes only a few days, until your tongue gets used to the new situation.

Will I be able to speak normally?

Yes, after a period of adaptation and a little bit of training, most of patients get used to the invisible braces in a couple of weeks. You might feel some difficulty speaking the first days, although many patients speak perfectly just a minute after having their braces on!

Does it take longer treatment time?

No. In general, treatment times are similar and depend on the difficulty of the malocclusion rather than on the kind of braces used.

How much does lingual orthodontics cost?

Lingual orthodontics is a very new and revolutionary technique. Your orthodontist has spend many hours learning to manage this new kind of appliances and taken many training and certification courses. Clinical management is longer, more difficult and precise than with conventional braces, and beyond that, Incognito braces are manufactured individually for each patient in a gold-zirconium alloy, which increases the price.

Prices vary depending on the difficulty of the case, from 4900 to 5900 euros.
