Innovative, Self-Ligating Braces (Metal or Clear)
We use the amazing, next-generation braces at Dr. Panucci and Jackfert's office! We love the slim, micro design, and the virtually friction-free movement afforded with the clip or door system, thus reducing your appointment time itself, and time between appointments and providing some pretty amazing esthetic results! Easier to keep clean as there are no "colors" or ties to collect more plaque, they are smaller, more comfortable, and, in conjunction with our nickel titanium archwire system, they work more efficiently. A choice of stainless steel (metal) or beautiful ceramic (clear) brackets is available to our patients.
How do Self-Ligating Braces Work?
Self-ligating braces use a specialized clip in place of elastics to help the archwire guide teeth into place. The clip helps reduce the amount of pressure being placed on the tooth and decreases the number of adjustments because there are no elastics to replace.
Self-ligating braces are a great option for patients needing braces. Dr. Panucci and Dr. Jackfert can help you determine what type of braces will be most effective for your smile. Please call our office to schedule your orthodontic consultation.
