Behind the teeth invisible braces are one of the most popular ways to achieve a perfectly straight smile. Many of the NYC orthodontic patients of Dr Lagstein’s office have experienced the incredible results that can be achieved within just six months of wearing invisible adult braces. Still, Dr Lagstein’s office feels as though there are many questions floating around about adult braces, and their staff is ready to provide the answers.

Dr Lagstein’s NYC orthodontics office provided the following questions and corresponding answers about adult braces:

What are behind the teeth braces for adults?

Behind the teeth braces straighten teeth the same way traditional braces do, only they are placed behind the teeth so that they are hidden, or invisible to others.

What are some benefits of behind the teeth braces?

Besides the fact that they are invisible to others, behind the teeth braces use new technology that customizes each bracket and wire to the patient’s teeth. This customization enables teeth to become straighter faster, in some cases, in as little as six months. Patients also avoid irritation to their inner lips since the braces sit behind the teeth.

Who can get behind the teeth braces?

Any patient at our NYC orthodontics office that is 13 years or older is eligible for behind the teeth braces. Dr Lagstein’s office offers a complimentary consultation for anyone considering invisible braces.

Can I eat normally with behind the teeth braces?

Yes, patients can eat normally with these braces. There is an adjustment period, as there is with traditional braces, but in time patients function, talk and eat as if they are not wearing braces at all.

Do behind the teeth braces hurt?

As with all teeth straightening methods, there is some discomfort when the braces are first applied to your teeth. In time, this discomfort diminishes and most patients report that they are very comfortable and practical.
