The word “Lingual” comes from Latin and it means “on the side towards the tongue”. Lingual orthodontics refers to the correction of misaligned teeth by means of fixed appliances (braces) bonded to the inner side of the teeth instead of the usual position. As a result, correct tooth positioning can be achieved without the braces being seen.
