  MBT™ Versatile+ Appliance System

The MBT™ Versatile+ Appliance System is more than an orthodontic prescription. It is a total treatment philosophy and appliance system. Sixty years of combined clinical orthodontic experience with pre-adjusted systems have culminated in the MBT System, the next generation of the pre-adjusted system.

3M Unitek's integrated approach has created a system incorporating brackets and buccal tubes (both available with the option of the APC™ Adhesive Coated System), bands, archwires and archform templates, along with an improved bracket positioning system, positioning instruments and a technique guide. The entire system facilitates accurate individualized bracket placement, as well as sophisticated reference textbooks.

To complete the picture, 3M Unitek supports orthodontists worldwide with ongoing MBT System continuing education courses. It all adds up to greater productivity for your practice and more predictable outcomes for your patients.

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.
