At Harley Street Dental Studio we are proud to use the latest technology and we are always eager to ensure that our clients have access to the best treatments. One of our most impressive orthodontic treatments is STb Social 6 lingual braces, which offer an invisible alternative to normal fixed braces.

What are lingual braces?

Lingual braces are essentially very similar to traditional fixed braces, but they are fixed to the back of the teeth, instead of the front. This means that the brace cannot be seen, so your smile remains unchanged and you don’t have to worry about what other people think of your brace. STb Social 6 is a lingual brace system, designed to focus on the social 6, the name given to the six front teeth on the upper and lower jaws.

Who is a suitable candidate for STb Social 6 treatment?

STb Social 6 is a system aimed at patients who have minor orthodontic issues that involve the social 6. This treatment is not suitable for those who need more tooth movement, but there are lingual brace treatments that can achieve major corrections.

STb Social 6 is an ideal choice for teenagers and adults who want to make minor corrections to their smile with the added bonus of the brace being completely invisible to everyone else.

What are the advantages of STb Social 6 braces?

The main feature of lingual braces is that they are invisible when you smile; however, there are additional benefits. Lingual braces are very advanced and they use impressive and innovative technology to move the teeth rapidly without causing you pain. The brackets of these braces are much smaller than your average fixed brace and the technology involved helps to reduce friction and increase comfort during the treatment process.

Another massive selling-point of this treatment is the treatment time. Most cases are complete within 16 weeks and patients will start to notice a difference in their smile after just a few weeks.
