Masri Orthodontics in Livonia, Michigan, is offering lingual braces as a discreet orthodontic option for adults and teens, the practice announced. The treatment, which includes the Incognito custom computer-designed lingual bracket system, places brackets and wires on the inner surface of the teeth, making them invisible from the front.
The availability of lingual braces matters for patients who want orthodontic correction without visible hardware. Traditional braces use metal brackets and wires on the outer surface of the teeth, while clear aligners are removable plastic trays that are nearly invisible but can be taken out. Lingual braces remain fixed throughout treatment and are positioned entirely out of sight, making them a consideration for patients whose professional or personal circumstances make external hardware impractical.
Masri Orthodontics, located at 15230 Levan Rd, Suite A, Livonia, MI, provides Lingual braces in Livonia MI through the Incognito system. The process begins with a digital scan of the patient’s teeth, which generates a three-dimensional model. Custom brackets are then fabricated using computer-aided design based on that model, a manufacturing process that takes approximately six weeks. Once the brackets arrive, they are cemented to the inner surfaces of the teeth, and the patient follows a schedule of regular monitoring visits throughout treatment.
The Incognito system is custom-fitted to each individual’s dental anatomy rather than adapted from standard bracket sizes, which distinguishes it from some other lingual approaches. The fabrication step that follows the initial scan allows the brackets to conform closely to the contours of each tooth’s inner surface.
For adults in the Livonia area considering orthodontic treatment, the practice also offers clear aligners and traditional braces, meaning treatment choices can be matched to the patient’s daily routine, occupation, and aesthetic preferences. The practice serves both adults and teens, and Dr. Nawaf Masri oversees treatment planning and clinical care.
