Standard Edgewise
An Advanced System for the Standard Edgewise Practitioner
FUNCTION:
-
Optimum bracket widths achieve excellent torque and rotational control, with adequate interbracket space for free tipping
-
Improved rotational control due to the base radius being machined into the part rather than formed after the slot is cut
-
Streamlined bracket heights allow greater latitude in vertical bracket placement, to accommodate individual case requirements
-
Reduced mesial/distal and occlusal/gingival dimensions allow earlier bonding of severely rotated teeth
- Superior bond strength with a diagonally orientated 80 gauge mesh bonding base.
AESTHETICS:
- Improved patient hygiene. Gingival third of the crown is accessible with reduced bracket heights
-
Better patient acceptance. Smooth contours and compact size provide for a more comfortable appliance
-
Improved aesthetics. Less bracket body is exposed, creating a more pleasing appearance
