About Us
The Incognito brace system is placed behind your teeth, and is therefore virtually invisible to other people.
Treatment time varies for each individual patient and the amount of work required to align the teeth. It usually takes between 12 to 24 months although many patients will start to see results after just a few weeks. Due to the advanced technology in the customised brackets, precise bracket placement and precision bent wires, your teeth will move in the most efficient manner possible.
You will still be required to visit the practice every 6 to 8 weeks for your orthodontist to check your progress and maintain your brace. New wires will be fitted to the brackets to gently move your teeth into position.
Once the smile you envisaged has been achieved your orthodontist will remove the brackets from the back of your teeth. This requires some force to break the bonds but it should not be painful. The backs of the teeth are cleaned and polished of any leftover glue.
Invisible: As Incognito braces are placed behind the teeth, they are invisible from the outside.
Faster: The treatment time varies depending on the case, but due to the advanced technology in the brackets and wires, treatment can be completed faster than with traditional braces.
Customised: Each set of Incognito braces is custom designed especially for you.
Comfortable: After the short adjustment period, most patients experience minimal discomfort with Incognito braces.
Flexible: We have a range of Incognito treatments to suit both mild and severe cases
Once your brace is removed, you will be provided with your own personal removable retainer which is normally worn at night to keep your beautiful new smile looking its best.
Like traditional braces, Incognito Lingual Braces use brackets and wires to gradually move the teeth into their desired positions. However, the main difference is that these braces are placed on the back of the teeth for a discreet treatment experience.
The duration of treatment with Incognito Lingual Braces varies depending on the complexity of the case and the specific treatment goals. Generally, treatment times can range from 12 to 24 months, but your orthodontist will provide a more accurate estimate after assessing your individual needs.
While wearing Incognito Lingual Braces, it is important to maintain good oral hygiene by brushing and flossing regularly. Your orthodontist will provide specific instructions on how to clean your teeth effectively with lingual braces.
Yes, you can eat most foods with Incognito Lingual Braces. However, it is recommended to avoid very hard, sticky, or chewy foods that could potentially damage the braces.
Initially, you may experience a slight adjustment period with speaking while wearing Incognito Lingual Braces. However, most people adapt quickly, and any speech difficulties are usually temporary.
Regular visits to the orthodontist are necessary for adjustments and monitoring progress. Typically, appointments are scheduled every 4 to 8 weeks, but the frequency may vary depending on your treatment plan.
The cost of Incognito Lingual Braces can vary depending on the complexity of your case, though they tend to be more expensive than traditional braces due to their customised nature and specialised technique required for placement.
