What is the explanation of self-locking bracket?

1, the meaning of self-locking bracket, refers to the combination of bracket and archwire in orthodontics, which means that the bracket is equipped with a clip to fix the archwire, and the archwire is not tied to the bracket with traditional steel wire. It is a kind of bracket used in orthodontics, which is more convenient for follow-up and reduces local soft tissue trauma.

2. However, sometimes the fixing force of this kind of self-ligating bracket may be smaller than that of the traditional bracket, so it is necessary to choose appropriate conditions to use the self-ligating bracket. Now many patients choose it, because its advantages are still obvious, each follow-up visit will be faster, and there is no steel wire ligation, which has little trauma to local soft tissue and is convenient for cleaning.
