The 3M™ Digital Bonding system allows for customized treatment planning in the 3M™ Oral Care Portal and a streamlined bonding process featuring brackets pre-coated with our 3M™ APC™ Flash-Free Adhesive.
Using the 3M™ Oral Care Portal, the same intuitive interface used for 3M™ Clarity™ Aligners, doctors can order digital bonding trays. 3M’s treatment designers will provide suggested bracket positions which doctors can modify in the Portal. In fact, since the ordering takes place in the Oral Care Portal, doctors can mix aligner and bracket treatment in the same case. From the 3M™ Tx Design, a bonding tray is created for doctors to load brackets to the specified positions and orientations. This tray delivers the brackets to teeth with an accuracy of 0.21 mm in the occlusal-gingival direction and 0.02 mm in the mesial-distal direction.
