Self Ligating Orthodontic braces

One of the many technological advances in the field of orthodontics. The science behind self-ligating braces is the idea that by having a smooth metal door holding the wire in the bracket, instead of a high friction rubber tie, teeth are more free to slide along the wire, resulting in less discomfort, faster treatment times, shorter appointment times, fewer trips to the orthodontist, and teeth that are easier to clean.
