Self-ligating orthodontics is a technique for aligning teeth with brackets that hold the wire in place through a built-in closing mechanism, without needing elastic ties.
What is it for? It corrects the position of the teeth and the bite, just like traditional orthodontics, with a different attachment mechanism.
What to expect? Treatment extends over several months with periodic adjustment visits; the duration varies by case.
Which specialist performs it? It is provided by dentists and, in a specialized way, by orthodontists. It's advisable to go for an evaluation to find out whether this option fits your needs.

Before you book
- Every licensed doctor in Mexico holds a cédula profesional, a national licence number. It appears on our doctor profiles where we have it, and you can verify it yourself against the federal registry.
- Ask exactly what a quoted price covers. Consultation, imaging, anaesthesia, materials and follow-up visits are often quoted separately.
- Ask who handles follow-up once you are home, and what happens if something needs correcting. For treatment that spans several visits, agree the schedule before you travel.
El Doctor is a directory. We do not provide medical care, take bookings, or receive payment from the providers listed.
