Hidden Braces
Avoiding orthodontic treatment is common among adults and teenagers due to the distraction and unattractiveness of traditional braces. Lingual braces address this issue by providing the same benefits as traditional braces but are discreetly placed on the back of the teeth. Dr. T.C. Hardy, an orthodontist in Loveland, CO, can help you achieve a healthy and beautiful smile with lingual braces.
Benefits of Lingual (Hidden) Braces
To effectively straighten your teeth, you no longer need to spend long periods of your life with metal braces overwhelming your smile. The benefits of lingual braces can include:
- Correcting long-term or lifetime dental issues
- Minimizing the visibility of orthodontic treatment
- Providing effective treatment for athletes and musicians who play wind instruments
- Boosting confidence during treatment compared to traditional methods
- Enhancing self-esteem after treatment

InBrace – Hidden Braces
InBrace is a cutting-edge technology in aesthetic orthodontics. It uses 3D digital scans to create a digital model of your teeth, allowing for precise virtual repositioning to design your ideal smile. A smartwire, similar to traditional arch wires but customized for your smile, is discreetly affixed to the back of your teeth with hidden brackets. These smartwires use gentle force technology to gradually shift teeth into alignment with less pressure than conventional braces or aligners. This method ensures healthy tooth movement while maintaining gum and tooth health. Ideal for mild to moderate cases of spacing, crowding, open bite, and deep bites, InBrace offers comfort and confidence, allowing for easy brushing, flossing, and eating.

What Can I Expect?
Lingual braces use brackets and wires to reposition teeth, but they are installed on the back of the teeth, making them invisible during speaking, eating, or smiling. After an initial consultation at Taft Hill Orthodontics, Dr. Hardy will assess if lingual braces are suitable for you. Impressions of your teeth will be sent to a lab for custom brackets and wires, if you are a candidate. These will be bonded behind your teeth for discreet yet effective treatment. Regular office visits will allow Dr. Hardy to monitor progress and make adjustments to achieve optimal results.

Why Should I Choose Dr. T.C. Hardy?
Choosing a skilled orthodontist is crucial for effective care. General dentists may offer orthodontic services, but only a specialized orthodontist has the advanced training required for complex treatments. Orthodontists undergo an additional 2-3 years of education in a specialized residency program. Dr. Hardy, who specialized in orthodontics at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine, focuses on misaligned teeth, jaw disorders, and occlusion adjustments. His expertise ensures high-quality, results-driven care.
