Braces
Self-ligating brackets, unlike traditional braces, don’t need elastic or metal ties to secure wires. They have a built-in mechanism for this purpose, potentially speeding up treatment and reducing the need for frequent adjustments. These brackets offer a more comfortable experience and make oral hygiene simpler during treatment.
Smile Arc
The smile arc references the relationship between the position of the top teeth and bottom lip. The most successful smile arc occurs when the bottom line of the top teeth perfectly mirrors the arc of the bottom lip.
Unmatched Smile Arc
The bottom line of the top teeth is more straight across than curve of the bottom lip.
Perfect Smile Arc
The bottom line of the top teeth makes a curve that exactly matches the curve of the bottom lip.
