At Simon Says Smile, we treat a great smile and a confident one as the same goal — because lingual braces let Chamblee patients straighten their teeth without anyone ever seeing the wire.
Most people assume that straightening teeth means choosing between something visible and something removable. Lingual braces challenge that assumption entirely. This treatment bonds custom wires to the back of the teeth, keeping the entire system hidden from view while working continuously to move teeth into alignment. For kids heading into a new school year, teens navigating social life, or adults in professional settings, that invisibility makes a real difference.
Simon Says Smile Orthodontics in Chamblee, GA is a certified C⁵ Hidden Orthodontics provider, offering this advanced lingual system under the care of Dr. Hazie Simon, a board-certified orthodontic specialist who built this practice around the belief that every patient deserves genuinely personalized care. Whether your child is a candidate or you are an adult ready to address alignment concerns, we offer a thoughtful, individualized approach through our full range of orthodontic services.
Lingual braces work differently from every other orthodontic option you may have heard of. Rather than using brackets on the front of your teeth or removable trays, lingual braces use tiny wires that bond directly to the back of your teeth. Because they sit on the tongue side of your smile, they are completely hidden from view. No one looking at you will ever know you are in treatment.
The C⁵ system specifically uses custom wires developed through all-digital Opti-IP™ 3D treatment planning. Each wire is designed around the exact shape of your individual teeth, which means the fit is precise and the movement is controlled. Once the wires are placed, you do not need to think about them. There are no trays to swap out, no attachments to manage, and no special maintenance beyond your normal brushing and flossing routine.
C⁵ Hidden Orthodontics is offered exclusively through a select network of certified providers, and Simon Says Smile Orthodontics is proud to be one of them. The system uses a team-based approach, with licensed professionals collaborating throughout your treatment to ensure your teeth are moving on track.
Treatment with C⁵ typically takes between 6 and 12 months, making it one of the faster orthodontic options for patients of all ages. Unlike traditional braces, lingual braces require no enamel shaving or alteration to fit your teeth into the system. The wires do the work gently and consistently in the background of your daily life.
Progress is monitored remotely using V5x™ imaging technology, which you can use from home with your smartphone. This means fewer in-person appointments and more flexibility in your schedule, without sacrificing the oversight that good orthodontic care requires.
Lingual braces are an excellent choice for a wide range of patients, including children, teens, and adults. They are particularly well-suited for patients who:
Even patients with more involved cases often start with C⁵ to reduce their overall time in other appliances. Dr. Simon will evaluate your bite, alignment, and goals during your consultation to determine whether lingual braces are the right fit for you. If clear aligner therapy or another approach makes more sense for your needs, he will walk you through the comparison and help you make the most informed decision.
The process begins with a thorough consultation and digital records. Because C⁵ uses 3D planning technology, the treatment is mapped out in detail before anything is placed in your mouth. Once your custom wires are ready, Dr. Simon will bond them to the backs of your teeth during a straightforward appointment.
From there, you will use the V5x™ remote monitoring system to submit progress photos from home. Dr. Simon reviews your progress and keeps your treatment moving without requiring you to come in for routine check-ins as frequently as traditional treatment. According to the American Association of Orthodontists, adults today prioritize discreet treatment options like lingual braces precisely because they fit seamlessly into busy professional and family lives. When your treatment is complete, we will transition you into a retainer to protect your results and keep your smile in its new position.
Simon Says Smile Orthodontics was built on a commitment to individualized care and meaningful outcomes for every patient who walks through our doors. Dr. Hazie Simon is a board-certified orthodontic specialist, a U.S. Navy veteran, and the author of the children’s book Simon Says Smile, a story that reflects his belief that a great smile goes far deeper than straight teeth. He brings that same level of care and intention to every treatment plan we create, including lingual braces through the C⁵ Hidden Orthodontics system.
