The perfect combination of strength and beauty

Clarity™ Metal-Reinforced Ceramic Brackets offer the aesthetic look patients want with the functionality needed. In fact, the outstanding combination of easy debonding, sliding mechanics equal to metal brackets, strength and aesthetics make Clarity ceramic brackets the clearly superior choice.

The beauty of Clarity brackets:

Clarity brackets give patients a lot to smile about. A comfortable, sculptured design. An attractive, translucent appearance. And perhaps best of all, the self-confidence that comes from wearing brackets that look as good as they perform.

Metal-like bonding and debonding:

Clarity brackets can be bonded like metal brackets, using light cure or chemical cure adhesive bonding, or use APC II™ or APC PLUS™ Adhesive Precoated Appliance Systems for optimal convenience and secure, reliable bonding from start to finish.

Count on Clarity brackets to debond like metal, too. The keys are the patented debonding slot and “stress concentrator” located on the base of the bracket. The debonding slot concentrates stress at this point causing the bracket to collapse under gentle pressure for consistent debonding. No special tools or procedures are required to remove the bracket from the tooth. With Clarity brackets, debonding is with greater confidence, minimized stress and maximized treatment efficiency every step of the way.

World-class sliding performance:

Clarity brackets feature a unique, patented metal-lined archwire slot that delivers sliding mechanics not possible with conventional ceramic brackets. With Clarity brackets, there is no metal-to-ceramic friction, resulting in smooth tooth and bracket movement along the archwire.

Strong like steel

With strength like steel, Clarity ceramic brackets are designed to resist fracturing even when subjected to intense torqueing forces. An innovative production process is used to pre-stress the brackets in much the same way that concrete is pre-stressed to withstand the rigors of day-to-day use and abuse. The brazed metal-lined archwire slot gives Clarity brackets the “backbone” required to achieve higher torque strength. This unique configuration overcomes the forces applied by the archwire during adjustments and helps resist bracket fractures throughout the course of treatment.
