Highlights
  • Rounded-shape corners for improved patient comfort. The corners and ligating mechanism feature the same buccal curvature as the bracket body
  • Integral Hook with simple versatile design
  • Easy ligation with enough space under the tie-wing area for conventional or chain elastics if needed
  • 80 gauge mesh base for better adhesive coverage to increase bonding retention
  • Torque in base for precison, control and easy bracket positioning
  • Compound curvature base allowing for accurate bracket fit
  • Nitinol ligating mechanism features elasticity and high resistance to fatigue during treatment

These brackets offer the simplicity of a passive door self-ligating appliance. An advanced Nitinol ligating mechanism provides low resistance to door opening and closing, without using special techniques or instruments. Nitinol also offers the advantage of high resistance to unwanted mechanism fatigue, which can affect door operation and bracket performance during treatment.

Passive self-ligating Unitek Gemini SL brackets feature reduced friction for treatment efficiency, but you can also utilise the benefits of tie-wings, which permit active control with ligatures when you need it. The bracket’s smooth finish and rounded profile offer improved patient comfort. Discover the advantages of Unitek Gemini SL brackets for your practice.
