3M™ Unitek™ Miniature Twin V-Slot Metal Brackets, 017-343, .022, L4, -17T/0A, 5/Pk
About the product
3M™ Unitek™ Miniature Twin Vertical Slot Brackets have all the features you’ve come to expect in a twin bracket—and more. They’re smaller, for greater comfort and improved esthetics.
Product details
Their metal injection molded, one-piece construction features a micro-etched base which provides bond strength comparable to mesh, and lower friction than machined brackets.
Also featured are easy-to-read, permanent I.D. marks plus new tie-wing ink marks.
A vertical scribe line facilitates more accurate placement, and the vertical slot adds treatment
flexibility.
Vertical Slot (.020 x .020) accommodates a variety of
auxiliaries, including a removable hook pin, which can be added when needed—or not, your choice. Unitek Miniature Twin Vertical Slot Brackets deliver outstanding performance for both patients and practitioners.
- Permanent raised I.D. markings provide ready identification
- A permanent vertical scribe line facilitates more accurate bracket placement on the long axis for bonding
- Symmetrical tie-wings add balance to enhance tie-wing strength and improve patient esthetics
- An integral base perimeter ridge facilitates easy flash cleanup
- Torque-in-base design with compound base contour
- Bracket design provides additional reference points to ensure proper bracket placement regardless of tooth position
