Self ligation braces are different from other type of braces in the sense that they require fewer adjustments and exert lighter forces.
It is advisable to get these tightened at intervals of 4 to 6 weeks.
Getting them tightened earlier will result in them exerting excessive forces and thus negating the benefit these offer over the conventional type of braces.
Having said that, the increased appointment gaps does not mean slower treatment. It will still finish off earlier than normal
