Fixed braces, also known as multi-bracket appliances, are used to correct more complex tooth and jaw misalignments where removable braces offer limited options. These allow precise physical tooth movements and are used to fine-tune the teeth.

Fixed braces consist of brackets that are glued to the outside of the teeth. These brackets are connected to an archwire to move the teeth into the desired position. Dr. Ewen replaces the archwires at regular intervals to achieve the desired tooth position gradually and as gently as possible.

But not all fixed braces are the same.

Achieving beautiful, straight teeth in combination with healthy chewing function is the goal of every treatment. Nowadays, there are a large number of providers of orthodontic brackets and arches that differ, for example, in their properties. At heyzahn, our main focus is always on your well-being. In addition to professional treatment, we attach great importance to using materials from renowned manufacturers. You can rely on us to provide you with the latest scientific care.

Twin wing brackets/insurance variant:
The standard brackets are made of metal with wings on the sides. A rubber ring is stretched over the wings and secures the arch, which runs from bracket to bracket and transfers the necessary force for tooth movement to the teeth.

Damon Brackets
The Damon system is a highly developed self-ligating bracket system. Instead of a rubber band, the arch in the Damon bracket is fixed with an integrated metal flap. It helps the practitioner to achieve outstanding clinical results using minimal forces.
The Damon® system enables a more efficient, faster and more comfortable treatment for your patients. The Damon® system uses biological forces to create space in a natural way. In most cases, treatment without extractions is possible when using the Damon® system.

Damon ceramic brackets
Ceramic brackets have the advantage that the brackets are tooth-colored. This makes the braces less noticeable.
