Does it seem like standard braces haven’t changed in ages? If you haven’t looked into orthodontic options, you may not be aware of self-ligating braces.
Self-ligating or Free-Sliding
Self-ligating systems use what is called a free-sliding mechanism. Each bracket is a moveable device that holds the archwire. The bracket is a small metal clip that is less cumbersome.
No elastics
The free-sliding device replaces the elastics used with conventional braces. Because of this, you never have to replace elastics.
So, the bracket just looks different?
While the bracket does look different, this isn’t what makes self-ligating braces revolutionary. The system actually works differently. The free-sliding system provides more incremental, even pressure. This often shortens the treatment time. Patients find self-ligating braces very comfortable.
