Orthodontics, ceramic braces and self-locking braces are all 20 thousand yuan, which is better?

First, ceramic braces. Generally speaking, ceramic braces have the advantages of moderate price, high aesthetics and simple cleaning, and the corrective effect is also guaranteed. However, it should be noted that the brackets of ceramic braces are easier to break than traditional braces, and the braces themselves are thicker, which is the shortcoming of ceramic braces. Therefore, we should pay more attention to this aspect when choosing ceramic braces. But many people choose to use ceramic braces, which naturally has its advantages. The edges and corners of ceramic braces are smoother than those of metal, which will not cause oral ulcers when worn for the first time, and are more adaptable and comfortable.

Second, self-locking braces. Compared with traditional orthodontic appliances, self-locking appliances have shorter correction time and can generally complete orthodontic treatment three months in advance. Because the positioning of the self-locking bracket is more accurate and the treatment process is simplified, a lot of time required for photocuring bonding is saved. At the same time, the self-locking bracket has memory function, which can ensure that the arch wire is in the correct position and effectively improve the effectiveness of tooth movement. Using self-locking brackets for orthodontics, it is also very simple to replace arch wires, and there is no need for ligating rings and doctors to unlock them again. In addition, the orthodontic force of self-locking bracket technology is concentrated on the alveolar surface, which can not only reduce the friction, but also effectively protect the oral mucosa, and the process is more comfortable.
