i-Zip Braces in Bangkok – THB 99,000
La Posh Dental Clinic · Bangna and Ram Inthra-Ratchada · Open daily 10:30–19:30
What makes i-Zip different?
Regular braces hold the wire with elastic ties. i-Zip uses Zip LP brackets with a built-in clip, so no ties are needed. Combined with the light-force i-Arch wire, this aims to reduce friction, keep force gentle and continuous, and make cleaning easier because there are fewer places for plaque to collect. Orthodontic work is led by Dr. Lalita Rutchakitprakarn, orthodontist (license ท.9453), MSc in Orthodontics from National Yang-Ming University (Taiwan).
The technology behind i-Zip
i-Zip is an orthodontic technique from Italy that combines two technologies at La Posh: the i-Arch wire, a vertical rectangular archwire that helps the dentist control tooth movement and torque from the early stages of treatment, and interactive self-ligating brackets that hold the wire without elastic ties. The brackets draw on the self-ligating concept many people know from the Damon philosophy, but use an interactive system to balance free tooth movement with precise control at each stage.
Concerns i-Zip is planned around
- Comfort: suitably light force, with comfort in mind during treatment
- Early visible change: teeth may start to show change within months
- Front teeth position: control of the front teeth and roots to limit unnecessary movement, according to the plan
- Treatment length: planning aims to cut unnecessary steps
- Mini-screws or surgery: the dentist assesses options that may reduce the need for these in suitable cases
- Gums and roots: appropriate force and oral health throughout treatment
Results and treatment time depend on each person’s teeth and treatment plan. Self-ligating systems or light-force wires do not guarantee less discomfort, faster treatment or less need for mini-screws or surgery in every case.
Who is i-Zip for?
- Teens and adults with crowding, gaps or protrusion
- People who want fewer adjustment visits than elastic-tie braces
- More complex cases where the dentist wants precise control
- People who prefer ceramic (tooth-coloured) brackets – available for an extra fee
