C5 Hidden Orthodontics
What is C5 Hidden Orthodontics?
Unlike traditional braces that are often noticeable and can sometimes be a source of self-consciousness, C5 Hidden Orthodontics is designed to be invisible. C5 Hidden Orthodontics is simply a small thin wire custom attached to the back of your teeth so that nobody knows and it is barely noticeable to your tongue.
How long does C5 Hidden Orthodontics take?
It can range from 3-12 months depending on the severity of the crowding.
How does C5 Hidden Orthodontics work?
A digital 3D scan is taken of your teeth. Then the wire placement is 3d planned and delivered. You will then come back every 6-12 weeks to have the wire adjusted. After treatment, a passive wire will be placed to hold the teeth in place.
Does C5 hurt? Will it affect my speech?
C5 does not hurt. Your teeth will initially be sore for a couple of days after placement. It does not affect speech. It will be slightly more difficult to clean.
