 Abstract

Esthetics plays a significant role for patients seeking orthodontic treatment. Patients not only desire an attractive smile, but also seek treatment that is as inconspicuous as possible. To meet this demand, orthodontic options such as ceramic brackets and composite plastic wires have been developed, despite their inherent limitations. However, the desire for truly invisible orthodontics led to a shift from the traditional labial to the less common lingual side. Socially active young adults who desired orthodontic treatment but were too self-conscious to wear braces on the labial side helped to drive the development of lingual orthodontics. This earnest yearning has brought lingual orthodontics into the forefront of orthodontic treatment options.
