Product catalog summary
Introduction
The document introduces the Nu-Edge self-ligating brackets made from cobalt chromium, which are nickel-free and suitable for nickel-sensitive patients. These brackets offer superior strength and biocompatibility.

Key Features
  • Robust Locking Mechanism: The brackets feature a distinctive dumbbell mechanism that provides audible assurance when the archwire is locked. The slide can be easily opened with a standard explorer and closed with finger pressure.
  • Ligation Options: Hidden tie wings allow for traditional elastomeric ligation, and metal ties can be used due to the auxiliary wire slot.
  • Maze Base Design: Designed for optimal bond strength and adhesive retention during debonding.
  • Nano Polishing Technology: Reduces bacterial adhesion, friction, and enhances surface smoothness for patient comfort.

Bracket Specifications
  • Maxillary Brackets: Available in various torque and angulation specifications for central, lateral, cuspid, and bicuspid teeth, with options for slot sizes of 0.46mm and 0.56mm.
  • Mandibular Brackets: Similar specifications as maxillary brackets, designed for anteriors, cuspids, and bicuspids.

Patient Kits
  • Kits contain 20 brackets and are available for both maxillary and mandibular applications with hooks for cuspids and bicuspids.

Compatibility
  • The brackets are compatible with the MBT and Roth systems, though not endorsed by the original developers.

Size Comparison
  • The mini version of the brackets is approximately 20% smaller than the standard bracket system.

Nu-Edge-1

The proven CoCr performance of Nu-Edge brackets now available in a self-ligating design NICKEL FREE Cobalt chromium is biocompatible for nickel sensitive patients and offers superior strength to prevent slot collapse due to occlusal forces. ROBUST LOCKING MECHANISM Once the slide is locked in place the archwire slot becomes a ridged tunnel preventing the bracket from being unseated. This distinctive dumbbell mechanism provides an audible assurance that the archwire is locked into place. The slide is easily opened using a standard explorer and closed simply by applying finger pressure. LIGATION OPTIONS Hidden tie wings allow for traditional elastomeric ligation if needed. Metal ties can also be used due to the strategically placed auxiliary wire slot. MAZE BASE DESIGN The maze base is designed for optimal bond strength and unmatched adhesive retention during debonding. NANO POLISHING TECHNOLOGY Helps prevent bacterial adhesion, reduces friction and enhances surface smoothness for patient comfort.
