Self locking bracket: greatly reduced pain

summary

Today's orthodontic technology is more and more mature, there are many new orthodontic methods, such as invisible correction, lingual correction, ceramic correction, straight wire correction and so on. Self locking bracket correction technology is also a common orthodontic method, so what are the advantages of self-locking bracket correction?

Self locking bracket: greatly reduced pain

First, the pain is greatly reduced: in the past, the wire bracket correction is easy to rub with the oral cavity, and some pain, while the comfortable and soft orthodontic force of self-locking bracket correction can reduce the discomfort of orthodontic patients.

Second: shorten the treatment time: the teeth move rapidly under the action of low friction.

Third: extend the distance of follow-up time: the distance of traditional fixed orthodontic treatment is about 4 weeks, that is to say, patients need to go to the hospital to adjust once a month; while the distance of self-locking bracket treatment can be extended to 8-10 weeks, and the arch wire has enough time to move the teeth. That is to say, patients can go to the hospital to adjust once every two months.

matters needing attention

Because the friction force of self-locking bracket is very low, it is easier to move the teeth, so some patients who used to need tooth extraction treatment can now do not need tooth extraction treatment.
