An ordinary metal bracket has to be “tied in” or secured to the arch wire with elastic bands or small stainless steel wires. The Damon bracket is self-ligating, meaning it has a built in “sliding door” that secures the bracket to the wire.
The impact of this difference is that instead of using elastic bands that grab the wire, the self-ligating bracket allows the wire to slide through the braces freely. This translates into less pressure, more comfort, and potentially faster treatment.
