What Are Self-Ligating Braces?
Traditional braces use colored elastic ties to hold the archwire in place. However, self-ligating braces use a unique metal “door” that opens and closes to secure the wire, eliminating the need for elastic ties. While these ties can still be used with self-ligating braces for patients who enjoy selecting colors, the technology itself provides numerous benefits.
Benefits of Empower Self-Ligating Braces
1. Quicker, Easier Adjustments
Empower’s self-ligating clips allow for quicker wire adjustments, reducing the frequency of office visits and improving comfort during appointments.
2. Stronger and More Hygienic
Unlike traditional ligatures, Empower uses heat-treated chromium cobalt clips that are more durable, resistant to discoloration and don’t require frequent replacement. This design eliminates one of the major food traps in traditional braces, making it easier to maintain oral hygiene.
3. Greater Comfort
The contoured edges and low-profile design of Empower braces provide a smoother surface, ensuring a more comfortable experience in the mouth by reducing irritation to the cheeks and lips.
4. More Efficient Treatment
Empower braces offer more control for orthodontists, allowing them to achieve treatment goals more effectively and efficiently with fewer adjustments.

The design of each bracket keeps both patient comfort and treatment goals in mind, making Empower braces a reliable option for those seeking the latest in orthodontic care.
