Moorestown Lingual Braces
Invisible Treatment, Unstoppable Confidence
Lingual braces at McHugh Orthodontics move teeth with full-strength power while staying completely out of sight. By bonding brackets to the tongue side of each tooth, Dr. Hellen McHugh helps professionals, performers, and image-conscious teens straighten up without flashing a single wire.
Hidden Braces, Powerful Results
Hidden braces. Invisible braces. Whatever you call them, lingual braces deliver the same reliable force as traditional metal—just tucked behind your teeth where no one can see.
After a fast 3D scan, Dr. McHugh designs custom brackets that hug the back surfaces of your teeth and robot-bent archwires that guide each shift with pinpoint accuracy.
Because every piece is tailor-made, you’ll notice smoother edges, fewer tongue irritations, and efficient movement right from the start.
Lingual treatment in Moorestown tackles deep bites, rotations, crowding, and even complex surgical-orthodontic cases that clear aligners sometimes can’t handle. With no brackets on the front enamel, you avoid “white-spot” stains and keep your visible smile pristine from day one to reveal.
How Lingual Braces Work
Your journey begins with digital planning that maps each tooth’s new home. Custom 3D trays place the brackets perfectly in a single visit, and thin, low-profile wires exert gentle, continuous pressure—no bulky gear, no constant adjustments.
Because the system stays put, you’ll never misplace an aligner or forget to wear it; progress stays on schedule while you carry on with life as usual.
Benefits of Lingual Braces
At McHugh Orthodontics, hidden braces combine top-tier strength with absolute discretion, providing Moorestown patients with a treatment that suits every lifestyle.
Totally Hidden Treatment
Lingual brackets stay behind your teeth, so nothing shows in high-definition video calls, stage lights, or social feeds—perfect for adults with public-facing careers and teens who’d rather keep braces off social media.
Custom-Fit Comfort
Each bracket is individually milled for your teeth, reducing tongue irritation and making the adjustment phase surprisingly quick. Paired with smooth, low-profile wires, most patients forget the hardware is even there.
Reliable, Precise Results
Fixed appliances work 24/7 and never get “left in the locker,” delivering the steady force needed for stubborn rotations, deep bites, and significant crowding. They’re every bit as effective as front-facing braces—just invisible.
Effortless Convenience
There are no trays to track, and no mid-day rinse rituals. Because lingual braces are bonded in place, you simply brush, floss with a threader or Waterpik, and show up for brief check-ins every six to eight weeks.
Front-Tooth Protection
With brackets hidden behind the enamel, you’re less likely to see decalcification spots when treatment ends, and cleaning the visible side of your smile is a breeze.
