I want to straighten my teeth with lingual braces. Are lingual braces safe?

They are safe, but are not for everybody. It usually takes a certain type of bite for them to be an acceptable option. If they would interfere with you closing your mouth because they would be in the way, then they would not be indicated. Check out clear aligners such as Invisalign or others. Dr. Conrad

Yes, lingual braces are safe to use but they should always be under the supervision of a professional Orthodontist.
