Dr. Michael Cook may recommend self-ligating braces to give you a reduced treatment time and a more comfortable overall experience with braces. This type of braces uses a specialized clip in place of elastics to move your teeth, resulting in less pressure on the tooth and fewer adjustments to your braces as your treatment progresses. Call Cook Orthodontics at 801-523-2509 to learn more about self-ligating braces in Sandy, Utah, and schedule an appointment with our orthodontist.
