Which is best out of lingual and invisalign braces?

Q.
Which are the more popular out of lingual and invisalign braces? Which would you say it the better choice for straightening crooked teeth? Which are more easily available at clinics?
A.
hi many thanks for your email, lingual braces are conventional braces but instead of being stuck on the fronts of the teeth they are stuck on the backs of your teeth. there are a very good way to striaghten crooked teeth.

Invisalign is a clear brace system which uses aligners. Aligners are thin clear plastic gum shields which are placed into the mouth over two weeks, the aligner moves the teeth to a certain position and then you remove that aligner and place the next aligner in the mouth. this happens until the teeth are striaght. it can take longer to correct crooked teeth with this type of treatment.

i would say invisalign is a very popular treatment as more general dentist can perform this type of treatment whereas lingual braces is more complexed to perform so less dentists are confident in doing this treatment.
