These are, basically, hidden braces that are bonded behind the teeth, unlike the conventionally used braces, which are bonded in front. These technologically advanced and innovative products offer several advantages over the conventionally used products.

Apart from this, the growing public awareness about dental health and dental care treatments is also positively impacting the popularity of orthodontic supplies.
This was ascribed to the fact that these braces are more precise and effective in treating the irregularities existing in the dental structure and are, therefore, widely preferred by people over the other orthodontic products.
