The FORESTADENT company based the development of new braces on naturalness and naturalness. A new ceramic mixture was specially created, which in color most closely matches the natural color of tooth enamel. This guarantees excellent aesthetic properties of the braces: the braces become noticeable only from a close distance.
Quick Clear braces are self-ligating translucent ceramic braces that provide an aesthetic alternative to metal braces. Kwik Clea is an interactive system with an opening mechanism similar to the Kwik braces system. Excellent aesthetics, natural smile, reduced treatment time - ideal conditions for the patient.
Lingual bracket system Incognito
The Incognito system has a number of undeniable advantages over other analogues! It is made individually for each patient.
Using modern electronic technologies, the patient’s future beautiful smile is modeled, and then individual braces are made, each of which exactly matches the shape of its tooth. The locks are made of medical gold alloy and are therefore completely hypoallergenic. The arches for the bracket system are also made individually based on computer modeling, with very high precision. Due to the fact that the bracket perfectly matches the surface of the tooth, even if the bracket comes off, the doctor can very easily return it to its place without redoing individual plates.
Incognito is completely invisible because it is installed on the inner, lingual surface of the teeth. No one will see that you are wearing braces. This is largely the reason for choosing this system, helping patients overcome the embarrassment of using orthodontic products.
Incognito bracket system - lingual .
Because it does not make any changes to the articulation of speech. The plates, due to their individual shape, are so thin that you cannot feel them or touch them with your tongue. And therefore they do not affect the conversation in any way and do not interfere with the usual production of sounds. This is also one of the important criteria by which this system is chosen.
Reviews
Wearing such orthodontic systems is a long and responsible process, so if you have your own observations or advice on this topic, we will be glad to see your feedback.

Self-ligating sapphire bracket system CLARITY SL
The ceramic bracket system Clarity SL
has become very popular today .
The plates are based on a crystal (sapphire) and various metals to strengthen it. This bracket system is translucent. And despite the fact that it is installed on the front surface of the teeth (unlike Incognito), it is nevertheless very invisible when used.
Modern ceramic plates do not react with salivary enzymes or various foods and do not change their color (transparency) while worn. They are smooth, with rounded corners, which avoids the formation of plaque or tartar. The design of the grooves allows the orthodontist to position the bracket as accurately as possible.
Clarity SL braces include SmartClip self-ligating technology and are passive, self-ligating, open-slot ceramic brackets with a classic double bracket design. The grooves allow the archwires to move, allowing for a gentler alignment of the teeth.
Flaws
Despite the many innovative solutions of the manufacturer, Quick braces have several disadvantages:
- First of all, this is a high price , which, however, is compensated by the excellent quality of any system of the German brand;
- Complete invisibility of the structure remains an unattainable dream. For all its grace and diminutiveness, Quick is still noticeable to others;
- At the initial stage of treatment, a minor disturbance in diction is possible , which subsequently quickly passes.
Damon self-ligating ceramic bracket systems
In the Clear series of Damon systems, special attention is paid to the aesthetics of the bracket. All plates are made of transparent ceramic and are completely invisible on the teeth. The composition of the plates is completely inert to various reagents, so the bracket system does not change color or become cloudy from saliva or other enzymes.
In size they correspond to the Damon Q series , small with metal grooves for the arc. But even more invisible due to transparency.
A low-cost analogue of the Clear series is Quick braces, also made of ceramic, the color of which matches the color of your teeth as closely as possible.
The cost of Quick bracket systems is slightly lower than Clear. They have similar types of arch fastenings and the absence of ligatures. Quick braces are characterized by very high plate strength and are comfortable to wear.
The entire Damon family of brace systems has reduced friction and creates minimal stress on the muscles of the face and jaw.
How long does the treatment last?
Quick metal solutions require minimal treatment times. In addition, the unique design makes it possible to equip the system with additional components that will create an enhanced effect on individual teeth. Thus, the course lasts on average about a year, even in the presence of complex defects of the dental system.
As for ceramic solutions, it is worth paying attention to the self-ligating type of construction, which also allows for faster treatment. As a rule, the duration of the course in this case is 1.5-2 years, however, if it is necessary to correct complex anomalies, the period can be increased.
Self-ligating braces Damon Q
Damon self-ligating braces provide greater patient comfort, shorter treatment duration and time, and more precise control of tooth movement.
All Damon braces have reduced friction. This allows us to both reduce the time of use of the systems and the range of required tooth displacement. This also reduces the number of visits to the orthodontist for wire replacement.
Damon Q series braces are made from metal alloys that do not enter into oxidative processes with saliva and do not change their color. The arc is attached to the plates by means of a special metal groove, which is closed with a lid, forming a tube in which the arc is located.
Dimon's Q series is distinguished by its plate sizes, which are half the size of its metal counterparts and look like rhinestones on teeth. When using this design of braces, the forces that are optimal for the body are developed, which are sufficient to stimulate bone activity and move teeth, but do not disrupt the blood supply to the periodontium!
The absence of ligatures in Damon braces allows you to maintain the level of oral hygiene and does not contribute to the formation of tartar or plaque.
Contraindications
The treatment has several contraindications. If the following problems occur, the doctor will most likely refuse to install the structure:
- Poor oral care;
- Cracks, chalky spots on the enamel;
- Untreated caries;
- A large number of fillings, crowns on teeth;
- Inflammation of the gums;
- Mental illnesses;
- Allergic reactions to construction materials;
- Severe somatic conditions - tuberculosis, cardiovascular diseases, pathologies of the endocrine system, AIDS and others.
Victory metal braces
These are traditional metal brace systems, which have already been tested for decades in orthodontics.
Victory braces today are very neat and at the same time very durable products. They are made from special tool alloys that are completely hypoallergenic and non-corrosive. They are attached to the arches using special silicone rings - ligatures. Ligatures can be either transparent or have a specific color.
The most important advantages of such systems (and in particular Victory) are the low cost of the system itself, as well as reliability and simplicity (the braces are very well fixed to the teeth, doctors can easily work with them, they are easy to care for).
The downside is, of course, the aesthetic component. Despite the small size of the fastenings, the braces are clearly visible on the teeth. However, the aesthetic aspect can be diversified by changing the color of the ligatures at each visit to the orthodontist. At the same time, you can combine colors with a wide variety of variations. This is a good option for teenagers - every time they add a new “trick” to their image.
History of Forestadent
Forestadent is one of the world leaders among manufacturers of high-quality bracket systems.
Having a history of more than half a century, the German company created its first system back in the 70s of the twentieth century. Since then, Forestadent has been constantly improving its braces manufacturing technology.
For these purposes, large-scale research is carried out, on the basis of which the company’s specialists modernize their products, bringing to perfection the convenience and elegance of appearance.
The main principles in working with the company’s new line of bracket systems are maximum naturalness and aesthetics of the products.
In search of a solution to make braces on teeth as invisible as possible, manufacturers came up with the idea of using translucent ceramics to make systems. Innovative solutions also affected the classics - all-metal braces.
The Quick line has been developed taking into account all new trends in orthodontics and is considered one of the most high-tech systems.
Combined braces options (Victory + Damon)
You can easily combine inexpensive and effective metal braces with aesthetic ones.
As a rule, only the first six front teeth fall into the “smile zone”. Therefore, it is quite reasonable to use only a partially ceramic bracket system and metal clasps on the remaining teeth (from 4 to 7). This will make it possible to feel less complex because of the “visible” braces system and at the same time allow you to save money on treatment.
For many patients, only the upper row of teeth appears in the “smile zone”. This makes it possible to install a completely metal bracket system for the lower row without reducing anything in aesthetics.

There are no age restrictions for the treatment and correction of malocclusion, and the methods of adult and pediatric orthodontics differ. Modern medicine makes it possible to eliminate the psychological barrier when visiting an orthodontist. Today, correcting your bite is not only fashionable, but also in a certain way beneficial for dental health.
Design features
The entire line has a number of characteristics that make it unique. The main ones are:
- The low profile of Quick Clear and Bioquick braces is achieved thanks to the thinnest brackets, especially for the front teeth. This prevents chafing and irritation of the mucous membrane in the area of contact with the bases.
- All sharp corners on the plates are smoothed out during the manufacturing process. This is achieved by careful polishing, so the risk of soft tissue injury is minimized.
- There is a double groove system, which allows the orthodontist to accurately install all structural elements. This gives an enhanced effect on the dentition and guarantees an early start of adjustment processes.
- The materials are not subject to staining during wear, and this preserves their original appearance.
