Lingual Braces in Thailand

Straighten Your Teeth Invisibly with Lingual Braces in Thailand

Looking for a completely hidden way to straighten your teeth? Lingual braces are placed on the inside surfaces of your teeth, making them invisible from the outside. Thailand offers this advanced orthodontic option at a significantly lower cost than many Western countries.

What Are Lingual Braces?

Lingual braces are similar to traditional metal braces but with one major difference—they’re attached to the back of your teeth, not the front. This makes them a highly discreet solution for adults and teens who want the power of fixed orthodontics without visible brackets and wires.

Each set of lingual braces is custom-made to fit the contours of your teeth, and treatment is tailored to your unique alignment needs. They can correct a wide range of issues, including crowding, gaps, overbites, and complex bite problems.

Why Get Lingual Braces in Thailand?

Thailand is an ideal destination for orthodontic care, including high-end treatments like lingual braces. While this option tends to be more expensive than traditional braces, the cost in Thailand is often 50–60% lower than in the US, UK, or Australia—without compromising on quality.

Key advantages:

  • Lower cost for a premium treatment

  • Experienced orthodontists trained in lingual systems

  • Modern technology like digital scans and 3D treatment planning

  • Personalized care and English-speaking staff

  • Comfortable, private clinics in top destinations like Bangkok and Phuket

Whether you live in Thailand or plan to travel for dental care, clinics here are equipped to support international patients every step of the way.

Who Are Lingual Braces For?

Lingual braces are best suited for:

  • Adults or teens who want fully invisible orthodontic treatment

  • People with moderate to complex alignment issues

  • Patients who are not candidates for clear aligners (Invisalign)

  • Public-facing professionals who want aesthetic discretion

They may not be ideal for patients with very small teeth or severe crowding, but your orthodontist will assess your case and recommend the best solution.

What’s the Process Like?

  1. Consultation and 3D Scan
    Your orthodontist takes digital images and impressions to design your custom brackets.

  2. Placement of Braces
    Brackets are bonded to the back of your teeth, and a special archwire is attached.

  3. Regular Adjustments
    You’ll visit the clinic every 4–8 weeks for tightening and monitoring progress.

  4. Completion and Retainers
    After treatment, a retainer is provided to maintain your results.

Treatment typically lasts 18–30 months, depending on the case. Clinics may offer the option to begin treatment during your trip and continue with remote support or local care at home.
