Product catalog summary
Introduction to Self-Ligating Braces
Self-ligating braces differ from traditional braces by eliminating the need for elastic ties. Instead, they use a sliding gate mechanism to hold the archwire, reducing pressure and friction on the teeth, which enhances comfort and speeds up treatment.

Design and Functionality
SLX Self-Ligating Braces are designed to be patient-friendly, offering a sleek and comfortable experience. They are bonded to the teeth similarly to conventional brackets but without elastic ties, allowing teeth to move smoothly into position.

Advantages of SLX Braces
  • Fewer Office Visits: Patients experience 40% fewer appointments on average, allowing more time for regular activities.
  • Shorter Treatment Time: The passive self-ligating system reduces the overall time spent in braces.
  • Shorter Office Visits: Without the need to change elastic ties, visits are quicker and more enjoyable.
  • Increased Comfort: Reduced pressure and smooth, rounded edges enhance comfort and minimize irritation.
  • Precise Results: The unique design allows for precision in achieving a beautiful smile.
  • Sleek, Low-Profile Design: Avoids irritation and bulkiness associated with conventional brackets.
  • Low Force, Less Friction: Free-sliding technology moves teeth more naturally and comfortably.
  • No O-Rings or Elastic Ties: Easier to maintain oral hygiene, keeping teeth clean and free of debris.

Conclusion
SLX Self-Ligating Braces offer a modern orthodontic solution that prioritizes comfort, efficiency, and effective results, making it easier for patients to achieve a beautiful smile in less time.

SLX™-1

Self-ligating braces are different from traditional braces as they do not require elastic ties to hold the archwire in the bracket slot. The placement of elastic ties on traditional braces puts unnecessary pressure and increased friction on your teeth, which causes discomfort and slows treatment. Instead of elastic ties, SLX Self-Ligating Braces feature a sliding gate that opens and closes to engage the wire, allowing the teeth to move more quickly, more easily, and more comfortably than conventional braces.* * Based on the study "Self-ligating brackets: where are we now" N.W.T.
