Thanks to special locks, the archwire slides freely in the braces’ grooves, which contributes to a more physiological movement of the teeth and increases the comfort of treatment. Metal self-ligating braces are characterized by high strength, predictable results and are suitable for the treatment of both adolescents and adult patients. They allow you to get a beautiful and healthy smile with maximum efficiency.
What is it
Unlike classic designs, the self-ligating bracket system does not have a ligature – special fasteners that hold the brackets on the arch. Instead, special clips or clamps are used for fixation, pressing the arch to the base of the groove.
This design is considered more modern and aesthetic, which is decisive when choosing braces for women or teenagers.
Advantages of self-ligating braces
- Less friction between the archwire and the brace.

- Easier oral hygiene.
- Effective treatment of complex orthodontic cases.

What types of braces are there?
Depending on the materials from which the structures are made, self-ligating braces in Kiev are presented in the following types:
- Metal. These are classic bracket systems, characterized by high strength and low price.
- Ceramic. Such self-ligating braces are barely noticeable on the teeth, as they allow you to select ceramics with a shade identical to the natural tone of tooth enamel.
- Sapphire. The most aesthetic, albeit the most expensive version of the design, made of sapphire crystals grown in a laboratory.
- Combined. As a rule, they combine metal and ceramic (or sapphire) braces. In this case, the invisible version is installed in the front, and the cheaper metal part is installed on the back teeth.
