iBraces: Hidden Dental Braces in Toronto

iBraces in Toronto
Are you concerned that traditional dental braces might damage your teeth or give you an unattractive smile? If so, ask our dentist whether you are a candidate for iBraces, also called lingual braces. These light, hidden dental braces in Toronto can help your dentist realign your teeth without many of the difficulties associated with metal braces.

What makes iBraces in Toronto different from regular braces?

When you come into our dental office for an orthodontics evaluation, we discuss a variety of options to realign your teeth, including a new option called iBraces. In a personal dental consultation, we explain their benefits and explain the procedure for placing them on your teeth. These braces have several distinct advantages over traditional braces.
A few benefits of invisible braces are that:
  • They are completely customized to your teeth.
  • They can be placed in less time and necessitate fewer visits while you have them in place.
  • iBraces are hidden in such a way that your front teeth still show.
  • They affect your speech so little that you can talk normally within about 2 weeks.
  • They require virtually the same care as your natural teeth.
  • Hidden dental braces in Toronto eliminate the risk of damage to your teeth that nickel-alloy braces can cause.
  • iBraces do not prevent you from playing any musical instruments.
  • They are a great alternative for people who play contact sports.

How are iBraces custom-fitted to your teeth?

When you arrive for your first dental appointment for iBraces, your dentist makes an exact impression of your natural teeth. A member of our dental team scans images of the impressions into a computer so a lab technician can create iBraces for your teeth using precise robotic technology. It takes about 6 weeks for the lab to complete this process.

What should you expect when getting your iBraces placed?

Getting your iBraces put into place is a quick and easy process when you choose our dental office for the procedure. Because they are custom-fitted, your doctor can place these hidden braces on your teeth for an accurate fit. However, any dentist must do this procedure with incredible precision. Our dentists have extra training and are experienced in placing iBraces. Most people have no pain at all with this procedure. Your dentist then cements them into position, and you are ready to go.

Are iBraces right for you?

The smart, streamlined structure of iBraces makes them an ideal choice for many people with crooked or unevenly spaced teeth. Although we do not recommend them for people with serious bite problems, they might be just the solution for you and your unique dental needs.

Braces that keep you smiling even as you wear them

Because we place these braces behind your teeth, you can still have the same smile you have always had. The difference is that iBraces move your teeth into their proper position and alignment to make your smile straighter and more pleasing with each passing day. You never need to hide your smile because these braces are completely hidden from view. You can face the world as confidently as ever from day one. No one else knows when you have the hidden dental braces in Toronto on your teeth or when you have them removed. At the end of your treatment period, you just might be the only one who knows the reason for your newly straightened teeth and improved smile.

FAQs about hidden dental braces in Toronto

What are iBraces, and how are they different from regular braces?

iBraces, also called lingual braces, are placed on the back of your teeth instead of the front. This means they work like traditional braces but remain hidden, making them a discreet option for patients in Toronto who want straighter teeth without visible brackets.

How long does iBraces treatment take?

The treatment length depends on your case. On average, it takes between 12 and 24 months, similar to conventional braces. At Downtown Dentistry, we customize treatment plans to your needs and monitor your progress closely.

Do iBraces affect speech?

Most patients experience slight changes in speech during the first week or two. However, the tongue adjusts quickly, and normal speech usually returns within two weeks.

Are iBraces suitable for teenagers?

Yes. iBraces are often chosen by teenagers and young adults who want an alternative to traditional braces. They’re especially helpful for those who want to play musical instruments or sports without worrying about visible brackets.

How do I care for my teeth with iBraces?

You can brush and floss as usual, but our team will provide specific tips to make cleaning easier around the brackets. Maintaining good oral hygiene is essential to prevent plaque buildup during treatment.

Are iBraces more comfortable than traditional braces?

Because they are custom-made to fit your teeth, many patients find iBraces more comfortable after the initial adjustment period. Our dentists ensure precise placement to reduce irritation and make the process as smooth as possible.

How much do iBraces cost in Toronto?

The cost varies based on the complexity of your case and treatment length. During your consultation at Downtown Dentistry, we’ll provide a personalized estimate and discuss available options. We also review your insurance coverage to help you make an informed decision.
