LingualBracesNearCarson

Lingual braces are the orthodontic option most people don't know about. Same brackets and wire mechanics as traditional braces, but they attach to the inside surface of your teeth.

From the outside, nothing is visible. Treatment is completely private.

For Carson residents, Bloom Orthodontics & Bloom Smile Studio in Long Beach offers InSmile lingual braces under the care of Dr. Thao Vu, board-certified orthodontist.

How They're Different

Aligners are removable and nearly invisible. Lingual braces are fixed and actually invisible.

With aligners, plastic sits over the front of your teeth. At close range or in strong light, it's there. With lingual braces, everything is behind your teeth. Nothing visible from any angle facing you.

They also don't require management. No removal, no soak, no case. Continuous pressure around the clock.

Comprehensive Treatment Capability

Lingual braces use the same bracket-and-wire system as traditional braces. They handle complex cases that aligner treatments can't fully address, while remaining completely invisible.

If your case involves significant crowding or bite correction, lingual braces may produce a better clinical result than aligners.

Specialized Placement

Lingual braces require specialized training. Dr. Vu is trained in lingual technique and places all InSmile brackets personally.

Placement is one to two hours. Tongue adjustment takes two to four weeks. Adjustments every four to six weeks after that. Most cases finish in 12 to 24 months.

Bloom's Long Beach office is easily accessible from Carson. Consultations are free.
