Description:

The HSL Horizontal Scribe Line of the Orthomatix Mini Low Profile Series Bracket helps to improve the vertical positioning (occlusal-gingival) of the bracket during bonding. To ideally position the bracket on the transverse plane (along the long axis of the tooth),  this feature within the bracket base has been designed (a perpendicular line from the center of the slot base) to complement bracket height gauges to accurately site on the FA point of the tooth. This reduces improper extrusion or intrusion of teeth, angulation, as well as torque and in-out errors.

The HSL aids in the following:

• Level slot-line up
• Torque direction
• Height positioning with different bracket placement techniques
• Positioning of the pre-molars to help align the marginal ridges
• Removes bracket parallax in higher torque brackets - Aids in flattening the curve of Spee
• Reduces angulation positioning errors

Features:

• Rounded mesial and distal entrance minimizes archwire notching thereby reducing “friction”
• Smooth and rounded contours allow for maximum patient comfort
• Anatomically contoured base and pad nestle each tooth for positioning that feels right
• State-of-the-art pylon base design maximizes surface area, which directly correlates to bond retention
• Rhomboid shape brackets and pads allow for maximum placement control
• Patented Horizontal Scribe Line across the brackets and pads, mesial-distal, creating additional visual clues, to enhance bracket placement

Packaging:

• kit of 5-5
• 20 metal brackets for the upper and lower
