    Arrow Orthodontic Rumor!

    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?

    Default Lingual braces

    It's true. They are called lingual braces, I believe.
