Non-Ligating (Self-Ligating) Brackets
How does a flexible, non-ligating slot improve treatment?
A non-ligating bracket holds the archwire without elastomeric or wire ties. Flexibrace’s flexible archwire slot flexes to moderate the force delivered to each tooth, keeping forces light and continuous. This lowers friction, lets clinicians progress to rectangular wires earlier, and speeds archwire changes — reducing chair-side time at every visit.
Non-ligating brackets do away with elastomeric and wire ties. Innobrace’s flagship Flexibrace uses a flexible archwire slot that flexes to moderate the force delivered to each tooth — keeping forces light and continuous while letting clinicians progress to rectangular archwires earlier.
Self-ligating designs across the Epsilon and Polaris lines reduce friction and chair-side time, with faster archwire insertion and removal at every visit.
