Empower^® Brackets

The Most Complete Self Ligating Bracket System in the World.

Empower is all about choice. With Clear, metal, and molar options, as well as interactive and passive designs, Empower's complete system allows you to customize treatment that fits your philosophy and your patients' needs.

Treatment Versatility

Empower is the first in the industry to offer you the versatility of either interactive or passive bracket designs in one unified system with coordinated in/outs.

Interactive Bracket

Clip passively captures smaller wires and actively engages larger wires for lower ligation force early in treatment and exceptional torque and rotation control during working and finishing stages
Available in metal upper and lower 5-5 and clear upper 5-5

Passive Bracket

Clip passively captures all wire sizes for lower ligation forces throughout treatment
Available in metal upper and lower 5-5

Treatment Philosophies

Empower's Interactive and Passive bracket designs allow unprecedented treatment options.

Dual Activation™ System (Combination interactive/passive system)

Dual Activation combines interactive anterior brackets with passive posteriors for a hybrid system that minimizes ligation forces, while still offering full anterior control for precise finishing.

Anterior teeth – Interactive brackets. Low ligation force during initial leveling and alignment; exceptional torque and rotation control during finishing.

Posterior teeth – Passive brackets. Low ligation forces throughout all stages of treatment.

Fully Interactive System

Empower's interactive self ligating system offers the benefits of less friction at the beginning of treatment and more control in the later stages to assist with final torques and rotations.

Fully Passive System

Empower's passive self ligating system offers the benefits of less friction and lower force mecahnics throughout treatment. No wires are actively engaged by the clip.
