Synergy®’s FSC ® ligation options deliver maximum tooth-by-tooth control throughout the entire course of treatment. Synergy®’s rounded arch slot floor reduces friction since the arch wire contacts the floor at only two points. Synergy® is available with or without integral hooks. Synergy® has permanent molded markings in addition to ink markings. Synergy® is manufactured in the metal injection molding process (MIM) – resulting in the strongest, smoothest, most rounded appliance available. Several university research studies have shown Synergy® can dramatically reduce friction, appointment intervals, and overall treatment time compared to conventional brackets.

Maximum effectivity of arch wire is utilized. Rounded arch walls allow tangental contact of the arch wire and flared arch slot openings, thus avoiding binding and kinking as the arch wire enters or exits the arch slot. This feature also makes it easier to insert the arch wire into the arch slot. I ncreases...
