U-Clip brackets feature the exclusive patented LB2—Laser Bonded Booster, a laser texturing process on the base that increases retention and ensures greater adhesion efficiency.
INTERACTIVE SYSTEM PASSIVE PHASE
The clip in the passive function reduces friction, increasing the efficiency of the sliding mechanics during the initial stages of treatment and promoting quick alignment and leveling. There is no pressure on the clip when using round archwires, making teeth movement more comfortable for the patient.
INTERACTIVE SYSTEM ACTIVE PHASE
In the subsequent stages of treatment, when higher gauge rectangular wires are used, the clip starts to have an active function, exerting pressure on the archwire and providing better control of the torque and rotation, allowing a more accurate expression of the prescription used.
