Lingual braces

#1 Post by Nicky19 »

Hi

This maybe (probably is) a stupid question?? I'm considering getting lingual braces on top and ceramic braces on the bottom. I had a thought... how am i going to close my mouth/bite etc with braces that are going to contact each other?? Given I have a deep bite and there is not much room in between my top and bottom front teeth. Just curious... Also Jims found your information on linguals very informative.[/list]

your back teeth will be separated intially. This will actually help open your deep bite faster. As the back teeth will grow toward eachother and thus open your overall bite.
