Lingual dental braces are the preferred option for people who want their braces to be truly invisible. The biggest drawback of lingual braces is that they can be uncomfortable and result in cuts and sores in your tongue. Speaking can be difficult at first too. On the other hand, ceramic braces are less visible and look more natural than metal braces, as they blend in with the teeth. Ceramic dental braces do not stain, and are as strong as metal ones. However, ceramic braces require a longer treatment time and can be a good deal more expensive than the metal variety.
