Difference between active ligation and passive ligation in orthodontics

Orthodontic active ligation requires surgery. Patients need to receive local anesthesia or general anesthesia, then make an incision in the mouth, move the teeth to the correct position, and then fix the teeth with metal brackets or other instruments. Passive ligation does not require surgery, but is corrected by fixing the bracket in the mouth and adding external force. Don't worry, just choose Keane.

2. Pain:

Because the active ligation of orthodontics requires surgery, there may be some pain after surgery and a certain recovery period is needed. Passive ligation does not require surgery, so the patient has no pain during the operation.

3. Corrective effect:

Orthodontic active ligation is to move the teeth to the correct position through surgery, so the correction effect can be more accurate and can be used to treat various complicated correction situations. Passive ligation is based on the principle of tooth movement, and the correction effect is relatively limited, which can not solve some complicated correction problems.

4. Calibration time:

Because orthodontic active ligation can correct teeth more accurately, the correction time is usually short. However, passive ligation takes longer to achieve the ideal correction effect.

5. Applicable object:

Because orthodontic active ligation can be corrected more accurately, it is suitable for all kinds of complex orthodontic problems, including crowded teeth, malocclusion, uneven teeth and so on. Passive ligation is suitable for simple orthodontic problems.
