Passive friction – active control

➊ Snap function on the clip and bracket makes it easier to open the clip from the gingival. ➋ Optimised, anatomically adapted base prevents “rocking” of the bracket when it is pressed on the tooth. BioPassive®-Brackets The passive version of the popular BioQuick® brackets. Minimal friction – active control during handling.

BioPassive ® can be clearly seen on the photograph in comparison with active BioQuick ® brackets. Externally the passive brackets are differentiated from the active brackets by a vertical mark on the mesial ligature wing. (22 Slot). The use of archwires that virtually fill the slot, e.g. the BioFinisher ® archwire, is recommended for fine adjustment. This effectively transfers the preset values without impeding the physical tooth movement. The clip is opened gingivally using a probe. With the aid of the snap function a notch on the pad margin guides the probe automatically to the clip. This enables...

Minimal friction ensures quick success Well-rounded bracket and slot edges as well as contact ribs in the bracket slot ensure controlled force transfer with minimal friction. BioPassive® brackets display their full potential particularly in clinical situations with pronounced vertical archwire deflection, e.g. in the case of displaced canines. Binding and notching, which often occurs with conventional brackets, is prevented with BioPassive® by four contact ribs in the slot. Auxiliary units are easily and simply placed using the separate .016“x.016“ auxiliary slot. The clip of the BioPassive ®...
