What do lingual braces feel like?

It will take your tongue a little while to get used to your lingual braces. Some people have difficulty speaking clearly at first. If you practice speaking at home by over-enunciating, you will speak clearer. To help with discomfort, use a small ball of wax to cover any brace or wire that irritates your tongue. For the first few days after your braces are in place, you will need to eat soft foods, such as mashed potatoes, soup, applesauce, and fruit shakes.

Who can wear lingual braces?

If you are a good candidate for regular braces, you are a good candidate for lingual braces. In addition, if you are an athlete, musician, or professional where traditional braces would interfere with your performance or appearance, you might benefit from lingual braces. Feel free to discuss your options with Dr Kataria.

Is it hard to talk with a CBJ appliance?

As with most orthodontics, the first few days of having a new appliance in your mouth will feel funny and you might find it hard to speak clearly. Your mouth will also create more saliva and swallowing may be difficult. These effects will diminish in a short time as you get used to the hardware. Your teeth and jaw may feel sore during the first three to five days, so you may take an non-prescription pain reliever.

Can I eat all my favorite foods with a CBJ appliance?

Eating will feel funny at first, but you will soon become comfortable chewing and swallowing. You will be asked to limit sugary drinks, hard food and sticky sweets.

How often will I have to see the orthodontist while wearing a CBJ appliance?

The appliance will need to be adjusted by the orthodontist every eight to ten weeks. You should also continue to see your regular dentist for check-ups and cleaning every six months.

Is surgery right for you?

Surgery may be right for you if you have space between your upper and lower teeth when you close your mouth, a receding chin, a severe overbite, a protruding lower jaw, difficulty chewing, or breathing problems when sleeping. We will help you determine if surgery is an appropriate choice for your condition.
