Pilot braces - effective designs of domestic production

Pilot (“Pilot”) is a metal bracket system based on the classic ligature type of construction. This model is produced in Russia and has a very affordable price, due to which it is very popular among patients. This is a standard version of a corrective orthodontic device that does an excellent job of correcting various defects of the dental system.

Main characteristics

The main purpose of braces is to straighten teeth. It is metal braces that give excellent results when treated with them, even with the most serious defects.

Pilot structures allow you to straighten your teeth in a fairly short time. In addition, their quick installation is noteworthy. You will need far fewer visits to the orthodontist than with other aligners.

They are quite affordable in price and significantly effective in their activities. They can be worn by both children and adults. In addition, such products resist the formation of stains on tooth enamel.

The Pilot product system is quite simple. They have a classic shape, and the braces are larger than other types, which makes them very reliable. The Pilots are made from metal by powder pressing, which allows them to serve the time required for teeth straightening without any problems, making them durable and reliable. Manufacturing features prevent damage during installation.

What are they?

These are metal systems that are actively used by many patients in our country. They allow you to get a beautiful smile without spending huge sums of money on them.

Who produces?

These designs are produced in Russia , which is why they have a relatively low cost.

When using them, the patient saves not only money, but also time, since the number of visits when installing systems is reduced to a minimum.

Design

Pilot braces do not have anything supernatural in their design. They are made from metal using powder pressing .

The design is created according to the classical form, without the use of modern technologies and details. The braces themselves are slightly different from their Western “brothers”, since domestic ones are larger in size. But their reliability is not inferior to such famous models as Daimon.

Manufacturing Features

Pilot systems are manufactured using powder compression technology. This allows you to use the structure for a long time without doubting its reliability and durability.

Depending on the characteristics of the bite, each bracket has a separate fixation of the arch. The pressure on the teeth is calculated as standard.

Due to the manufacturing features, the system is easy to install on the jaw. Although they are metal, their use is safe for teeth - there is no chance of damage to the enamel during the treatment process.

Features of Pilot products

Let's look at what distinguishes Pilot systems from other leveling structures:

  1. Classic shape, lack of modern details.
  2. Significant sizes of the braces themselves.
  3. Manufactured using powder compression, which makes the structure more reliable and stable.
  4. Each brace is attached to its designated fixation location, which increases its strength.
  5. Quick and easy installation.
  6. Do not damage enamel and resist corrosion.
  7. The pressure on the teeth is distributed according to a standard pattern.
  8. A traditional scheme for distributing pressure on the teeth is used.
  9. Possibility of use for children and adults.

What makes Pilot braces special?

Metal is used to create vestibular braces. In this case, the arch is attached to the brackets using elastic rubber bands, which, in turn, need to be regularly replaced. Therefore, when choosing this model, you should take into account that you will have to visit the orthodontist’s office at least once a month. The features of braces include the following:

  • uniform pressure distribution: the ligature type of construction allows for correct and uniform impact on the teeth during treatment,
  • high levels of strength and reliability: this system is created from metal using powder casting. As a result, the device is very durable and resistant to mechanical stress. In addition, the design itself has virtually no parts that are susceptible to breakage. All this allows us to minimize the risks associated with additional expenses for replacing damaged elements,

“I have been wearing Pilot braces for a year and a half, so I can give my assessment of this model. All problems are solved, the teeth have moved, the gaps have disappeared. Only now the bottom row has become crooked, as if the teeth were of different lengths and now look uneven, but this is a question for the orthodontist, not for the system. The braces did their job with a bang! One of the difficulties is that in the first couple of days there is a terrible nagging pain, from which only painkillers can help. Then problems appeared with the inside of the cheeks - the parts of the structure were constantly rubbing, so I had to use wax. Over time, everything went away, and I stopped noticing the staples in my mouth. In my opinion, it’s an excellent and inexpensive solution that works just as well as expensive braces, and maybe even better.”

Irina Z., Moscow, 29 years old, review from flamp.ru

  • simplicity and ease of installation: the brackets hold securely on the teeth, but are easily removed without damaging the enamel,
  • affordable cost: Pilot systems belong to the budget class of orthodontic devices.

Age for which installation of structures is indicated Pilot

Like any other braces, Pilot products are best placed in adolescence, when the bite is not yet fully formed. For these structures, the most appropriate age is from 10 to 12 years, when all the teeth have already formed and their position can still be easily changed. At the same time, some bite defects disappear on their own at this time.

Note: When installing braces on teenagers, the duration of wearing them will be shorter, and installation will be easier.

Products can also be installed at a later age (even in old age), but it should be understood that then the treatment will be longer, and the result will have to be maintained by using retainers for quite a long time.

A few words about prices

One of the main advantages of the domestic brace system model is its affordable cost. Thus, installing the device on one jaw can cost the patient from 6 to 12 thousand rubles, while the minimum price for fixing any other metal system will cost at least 15 thousand rubles. It should also be taken into account that you will have to visit the orthodontist once or even several times a month to adjust the operation of the structure and replace the ligatures, and this is an additional expense.

Installation steps

Installing Pilot systems is a fairly simple procedure. However, only a highly qualified orthodontist can do it, who will carefully complete every necessary step.

First, a photograph of the patient’s jaws is taken, as well as casts of them, which will determine the extent of the defect. The data obtained is used for treatment planning and installation begins.

Installation steps:

  • tooth enamel is processed;
  • Braces are attached to the enamel in the desired position using a special adhesive;
  • put on an arch.

If the patient’s entire oral cavity has been treated before installation (if it has caries or other diseases), Pilot braces can be installed in one visit to the orthodontist. The doctor decides how long the patient will wear the structure, based on data regarding the complexity of the pathology.

With Pilot products you can get rid of:

  • abnormal bite;
  • deformation of the dentition;
  • presence of gaps between teeth;
  • difficulties for teething.

It is important that after installation of the structures, continue to periodically visit the doctor, who will monitor the progress of treatment.

I have an opinion

The Pilot bracket system is popular in the domestic market, as confirmed by reviews.

I wore Pilot braces for 1 year – from 18 to 19 years old. I liked everything, the teeth moved in the right direction and quite quickly. At first there was a little discomfort, but I quickly got used to it. There were no allergies or pain. The enamel did not suffer at all from the system. I recommend.

Elena, 21

Worn by Pilot when he was a student. I liked the price. The treatment time was 18 months. Comfortable, although large, I quickly got used to them. The main thing is to maintain hygiene. I recommend it to everyone, especially since the price is very affordable.

What restrictions exist regarding the installation of “Pilots”?

The main restriction when a patient is not allowed to have Pilot systems installed is children under 10 years of age.

But for patients over 10 years old, in order to straighten their teeth and get a perfect smile, such products are perfect. Also, Pilot systems are always used before prosthetics, when it is necessary to straighten living teeth, leaving the necessary places for artificial ones.

The treatment time for such braces is approximately one to two years.

In order for the result to be as planned, the patient should follow the following rules:

  1. Do not eat solid foods, nuts, crackers.
  2. Avoid eating too hot or cold foods.
  3. Avoid toffees and chewing gum.
  4. Take good and regular oral care.

With Pilot designs you can become the owner of a Hollywood smile at any age. There is no need to use other traumatic methods of therapy; Pilot products can make your teeth straight and your smile attractive.

Lingual braces Incognito and their features


The procedure for making Incognito braces takes about two months.
The procedure for making Incognito braces takes about two months. First, the dentist creates a cast of the jaws, then a virtual model is developed based on the cast, and only then a wax model is created. This becomes the prototype on the basis of which the bracket system is manufactured. Both the development of the virtual model and the manufacture of braces are carried out in Germany, using modern equipment that ensures jeweler precision.

Indications and contraindications

Any braces have both indications and contraindications.

Let's look at when you can use Pilot braces:

  1. If you have a malocclusion.
  2. When there are interdental spaces.
  3. If teething is difficult.
  4. If there are abnormally located teeth in a row or their inclination.

Contraindications for use:

  1. The presence of complex chronic diseases.
  2. Diseases that oppose the restoration and reconstruction of the jaw bone.
  3. The patient’s inability to adequately evaluate everything that the doctor does to him.
  4. Poor oral hygiene.
  5. The presence of generalized periodontitis can lead to a decrease in bone tissue, which will greatly complicate the alignment process.
  6. The patient has allergic reactions to the metal present in the design.

Description of the Pilot bracket system

Pilot braces are vestibular metal ligature structures made using the powder pressing method. The model was originally designed to correct any bite problems, and it does an excellent job of this purpose. Since its inception, the system has never been improved.

Braces are installed on the outer surface of the teeth of the upper and lower jaw using the vestibular type of fastening. Locks or brackets are made of metal. The arc is fixed with ligatures - special rubber bands. Below are photos of Pilot braces.

Advantages and disadvantages

The positive qualities of Pilot products are as follows:

  1. Affordable price, which makes them very popular among the middle class population. At the same time, the effect of their use is similar to the use of more expensive structures. The low price is due to local production. The price does not have to include transportation, customs duties, and so on. In addition, the cost reflects the fact that the system is no longer new.
  2. Safe to use. Such products do not cause allergies and do not injure the oral cavity during installation, as well as during operation. Despite its significant size, such designs are quite comfortable to wear.
  3. Reliability. The strength of the material used in the manufacture in combination with the classic structure contributes to the most reliable fixation using any special components. This means that there is no need to replace individual components during the treatment process.
  4. Minimum friction force between the groove and the arc of the structure.

The main disadvantages of Pilot braces include the following:

  1. They are quite massive, which makes the products noticeable on the teeth, reducing the aesthetics of the smile.
  2. Treatment programming results may not be accurate.
  3. Possibility of increasing the expected treatment period.

General information about the design

Malocclusion develops in a person in childhood, and then it is difficult to recognize. But when the problem is identified, it is important to take a responsible approach to choosing braces. Pilot metal braces have important advantages. Such products will not “hit” your wallet, because the product is developed and manufactured in Russia.

You will be attracted by the special Pilot device. They apply constant gentle pressure, but at the same time, after removal you will not see marks on your teeth. There is a myth that bites can only be corrected in childhood, but the device will also be effective for adults.

Pilot is popular both among ordinary people and among professionals. The product is based on glass with impurities. This is good because the plates will not be noticeable on the teeth.

Parts are manufactured using powder compression. Products are externally tested before being released to the customer.

Each small plate is fixed at a certain point. This is necessary for proper distribution of pressure, because each tooth has individual values.

Treatment procedure

Pilot systems can be installed only after a visual inspection and assessment of the client’s condition, analysis of all the disadvantages and advantages, as well as prediction of the result obtained.

Let's consider the main stages of treatment with such structures:

  1. The diagnostic stage involves taking an impression of the jaws and making a diagnostic model. At this stage, the need to use these particular braces as a leveling system is identified. Today, 3D models are used as modeling, predicting the outcome of treatment at a high level. So, you can clearly see what teeth look like before and after wearing braces. At this stage, an individual design is also selected and a treatment plan is drawn up.
  2. The preparatory stage includes examination of the patient’s oral cavity, filling of teeth affected by caries (if any). Thus, the proliferation of pathogenic bacteria in the oral cavity is prevented, and teeth are protected from caries. If tartar or plaque is present, these should also be removed. You can proceed to the next stage only when the oral cavity is completely sanitized.
  3. The installation stage proceeds quite quickly, thanks to the ease of installation of Pilot braces. The installation takes place in one visit to the orthodontist.

Types of braces that can be placed on an adult in our clinic

We use modern, reliable self-ligating bracket systems from the USA Pitts 21 and H4 Pitts Board. Today the best orthodontists in the world work for them!

Self-ligating braces are a type of brace system that allows you to most effectively carry out the treatment plan and activate the orthodontic structure due to the free movement of the arch in the grooves of the lock. During the correction process, the teeth move more smoothly, which reduces trauma and simplifies the activation process.

Metal and ceramic Pitts 21 and H4 are:

  • High reliability of the design.
  • High-quality hypoallergenic materials.
  • Optimal shape and design, which serves the practical comfort of the patient and the least trauma to the tooth enamel.
  • Convenient installation and activation of braces.
  • The optimal price-quality ratio, according to most orthodontists, is the most popular braces in Moscow.

All that remains is to choose: simpler and more reliable metal structures or slightly more expensive ceramic structures that are invisible on the teeth.

It is also possible to install a lingual brace system in our clinic.
