Lee’s Summit Lingual Braces

Invisible Braces,
Very Visible Progress

With Brava by Brius, you’ll wear these comfortable braces behind your teeth—so everyone focuses on your smile, not your treatment.

Lingual Braces in Lee’s Summit

Lingual, or tongue-side, braces at Lakewood Orthodontics provide the same level of correction as traditional braces to gradually move your teeth into alignment—all while remaining completely hidden.

How? Each Brius by Brava bracket bonds to the back of your teeth, allowing for effective movement without altering your appearance. Just like traditional braces, lingual braces use brackets and wires to apply gentle, continuous pressure that shifts your teeth into alignment.

Because they’re custom-fitted and positioned behind your teeth, each hidden bracket delivers precise results without getting in the way of your smile.
