Iceram

MBT 0.022 (McLaughlin, Bennett, & Trevisi Prescription)

Unlimited evolution and beauty!


Iceram ceramic brackets possess high translucency, offer patients increased comfort in addition to a much-desired "invisibility" without affecting the expected clinical performance.

Made with pure polycrystalline aluminum oxide at a concentration of more than 99%, Iceram brackets are the result of state-of-the-art sintering technology, which allows increased precision and comfortable shapes.

Especially designed to provide efficiency and performance to the orthodontist, its concave base enables a perfect fit to dental anatomy. The ceramic base design, equivalent to the traditional metal mesh, provides superior mechanical retention.

Differentials
• Outstanding translucency and invisibility;
• Maximum comfort due to its reduced dimensions and rounded contours;
• More anatomical base providing improved fit and retention;
• Superior finish with a highly smooth surface;
• Totally stain resistant;
• High resistance to fractures on wings and hooks;
• Easy positioning of elastics and ligatures;
• Super polished slot reduces friction;
• Precision of angles and torques;
• The brackets are resistant to pigmentation although the patient should also be advised to avoid certain habits such as smoking and the consumption of drinks with dyes to provide a sense of invisibility throughout the treatment.!

Better Fitting
- Anatomical base with mesiodistal and occlusal gingival curvatures, facilitating fitting to the tooth surface.
 - The base contains retention pins that increase adhesion area, ensuring greater efficiency in bonding and safety to the orthodontist.
 - Mechanical retention made with the exclusive and patented laser texturing, LB2 – Laser Bond Booster, which grants the brackets 30% greater retention when compared to the traditional sandblasting.

Raised edges of the base
- Raised edges contribute to cutting excess resin, facilitating removal, while retaining the resinous material.

Comfort and esthetics
- Low-profile with rounded edges and short, spherical hooks, relieved contact surface with special curvatures;
- Brackets are resistant to pigmentation with maximum esthetic treatment;
- 100% produced in Polycrystalline Alumina Ceramics.

Precision and Performance
- Extremely resistant spherical hooks on canines and premolars, characterized by curved geometry, ensuring comfort and better fitting for elastics and accessories;
- The twin fin design allows better accommodation and retention of elastic ligatures, in addition to rotational control and less friction, relieving the edges of the slot.
- Gutters with smaller contact area to reduce friction, favoring arch sliding.
- Parts are designed with torque on the base, providing greater precision.
 
COLOR IDENTIFICATION
- Color identification on the fins, indicating the long axis line for greater positioning precision during gluing.
