Hi,
I recently heard of a new technology for braces that has patient's wear metal braces, but on the other, non-visible side of teeth, or the inside of the teeth. Is this true or just a orthodontic rumor?

This is true and has been available for a long time. However the technique is very difficult. The other drawback is that people generally do not get on well with these braces as they are very obtrusive to the tongue.
I hope this helps
