SmartClip™ Self-Ligating Appliance System


Smart Clip The Intelligent Choice. The SmartClip™ Appliance system from 3M Unitek dramatically advances bracket design and revolutionizes self-ligation. With sophisticated engineering that integrates the unique properties of nickel-titanium into a precisely designed form, 3M Unitek innovators have created a clip mechanism that brings the first truly self-ligating appliance to orthodontics.

With the SmartClip Self-Ligating Appliance, there's nothing for you to open or close. The integral nickel-titanium clips permit easy and simple archwire insertion and removal, yet hold the archwire with a pre-programmed force that avoids unintentional disengagement. And, you'll find a familiar twin bracket design that lets you keep your preferred treatment techniques.

But there's more to the SmartClip System than simply the most unique self-ligating bracket design available. Integral to the system are the advantages of APC™ PLUS Adhesive coating and the renowned MBT™ System Prescription, exclusively from 3M Unitek. Together in the SmartClip Appliance System, these premier orthodontic systems combine to bring unmatched efficiencies and more predictable outcomes to orthodontic treatment.
