You want straight teeth. You just don't want anyone to know you're getting them.
Lingual braces are the only truly invisible orthodontic option. The brackets and wires attach to the back of your teeth, the tongue side. From the front, nothing is visible. Not at a client meeting. Not on a video call. Not across the table.
At Bloom Orthodontics & Bloom Smile Studio in Long Beach, we use InSmile Braces: custom-fabricated lingual brackets made specifically for your teeth.
Why Long Beach Patients Choose Lingual Braces
A lot of people here have wanted to fix their teeth for years. They're professionals. They're in front of people. They don't want metal on their teeth and they don't want to manage aligner trays all day.
Lingual braces solve both. They're fixed, so they work around the clock without any effort. Because they sit behind your teeth, no one ever sees them.
If you've looked at clear aligners and worried about compliance or visibility, lingual braces are worth a serious look.
What to Expect
Placement takes one to two hours. Your tongue takes two to four weeks to fully adjust. Most patients notice a brief speech change during that window. Then it passes.
After that, you come in every four to six weeks for adjustments. Most cases complete in 12 to 24 months.
Dr. Vu and Board Certification
Every lingual braces case at Bloom is handled by Dr. Thao Vu, a board-certified orthodontist. Lingual technique requires specialized training that most orthodontists don't have. Dr. Vu does.
General dentists don't offer this. It takes years of focused practice to place lingual brackets with precision.
