Hi. I would like to know what’s the difference between Social 6 Lingual Braces and Fast Braces Other than where they are placed (back vs. front of the teeth)? I have some overcrowding at the top and the bottom and my front teeth stick out a little. Would either of these two treatments correct these problems? Thanks.

Hi, Dr Hughes. Would It Be Cheaper To Only Straighten Two Teeth With Lingual Braces?
Thursday, October 23rd, 2014Hi, Dr Hughes. I hope that you can help me. I was wondering if it would be possible to get lingual braces for only 2 top front teeth which have a gap in them. Would that considerably lower the costs and if so how much would it cost?
Also again, what would the costs be if the bottom incisors (only 2) were to be straightened with lingual braces? Thank you for your reply in advance.
I Have Porcelain Crowns And Veneers. I Would Like To Know If It’s Possible To Have Lingual Braces?
Friday, March 28th, 2014 Hi Mark, I would like to know if it possible for me to have lingual braces? I have porcelain crowns with metal posts on my two front teeth and veneers on the two teeth either side.
I have a small upper arch and originally my upper front teeth were overlapped before they were replaced with crowns and posts. I have always wanted to have my teeth straightened but was put off by a dentist who did not want to offer me braces. I have since read on the internet that it is possible to have lingual braces on crowned teeth. I would like some advice on this if it’s possible. Thank you for your time.
I’m 15 And I Was Wondering If The NHS Would Provide Me With Lingual Braces Or Not?
Wednesday, March 26th, 2014Hi Dr Patel. My question is: how much do lingual braces cost? Does NHS provide it? I’m 15 years old. I have 2 of my front teeth are overlapping like they should be in the front but they are on the back and that is the only problem that I have. How long should I wear the normal braces or the lingual dental braces? I think that lingual braces are the only braces that can help me. I don’t really want the normal braces and I was wondering if there was any discount because of my age? Thank you.
I Am Using Lots Of Wax To Stop My Braces Hurting. Do You Have Any Advice That Can Help Me With This?
Monday, March 10th, 2014Hi Mark. I had lingual braces on 2 weeks ago and I am using lots of wax but my teeth feel like they have razor blades stuck in between them that are ripping my tongue to shreds and I am lisping badly. I am a 51 year old female and am totally regretting my decision. It cost an enormous amount of money and now I do not want to go out in public as I constantly lisp and I am always aware of it. I regret not doing more research, I had no idea it would be so painful. Any advice?
I Am Nervous About Having Dental Surgery To Fix My Crossbite. Would Veneers Be Another Options?
Tuesday, November 26th, 2013I am 44 years old and have a narrow upper jaw and crossbite, despite having had braces in my 20’s. I am thinking about having SARPE surgery and Lingual braces but am nervous about the surgery and having to live with a metal expander for 3 months followed by a year of orthodontics. Ideally I would like to improve my bite but I am not sure if it is worth it at my age. The main thing that bothers me is my front teeth stick out a bit. Could cosmetic dentistry (say in the form of veneers) offer some improvement? Thanks.
I’ve Wanted To Straighten My Teeth For A Long Time. Which Discreet Braces Are Most Suitable?
Friday, November 8th, 2013 Hi. I’ve wanted to straighten my front
teeth for a long time as one slightly crosses over the other.
However I wanted a brace fitted for the shortest possible time and something clear so no one can tell I’m wearing one.
Which type of brace would you recommend?
I’ve looked at lingual and simpli5 but I’m unsure as to whether either would
be suitable as my front teeth cross at the bottom. Many thanks, it’s much appreciated.
Hello Doctor. My Sister Needs Braces Before Her Wedding. She Wants Ones Which Are Less Visible. What Treatment Would You Recommend?
Tuesday, October 29th, 2013Hello Doctor, hope you are well! I’m writing to you to know about treatment for overcrowded teeth for my sister (27 years old). She does not want to opt for metal braces as they are visible and will not give her a good look for her wedding.
Please suggest what procedure will be best for her and which is less painful, giving her better look as well.
How long would treatment go and how frequently would she need to see doctor once treatment commences. If you have any details of cost of treatment, that’ll be of great help to plan! Awaiting your response.
Cheers.
I’d Like Straight Teeth But I’m Not Sure About Braces, What About This New Aerodentis Treatment?
Tuesday, September 3rd, 2013Hi, I was just wondering if you have ever heard of Aerodentis? I would like to have straight teeth but really do not want to get a brace! I have been looking at lingual braces but I’m not sure I could afford them. Also the inman aligner, which is much more affordable but still not really suitable! I’ve read that it’s quite bulky and I don’t think I would have the confidence to wear it whilst at work or generally out and about. Aerodentis looks like a really good option but there’s very little information about it online! I would just like to know if it works, the overall length of treatment and how much it costs and if you have ever come across it before? Thanks, this would really help me.
