Main characteristics of Ormco’s Buccal Tubes

Straight-wire® brackets are truly interchangeable, malocclusion-specific appliances that are designed to empower orthodontists to achieve their clinical goals as efficiently and effectively as possible. The following are some of the main characteristics of our product lines.

Flared mesial openings

The accentuated flared mesial opening on Accent tubes greatly facilitates wire insertion.

Non-convertible caps

No premature conversions and no conversion difficulties to complicate and delay treatment.

No tie-wings

Accent tubes eliminate the common causes of interference with opposing teeth and tubes.

Easy to open

Insert the flat end of the SpinTekslide opening/closing instrument into the orifice and twist 90º. The tube, not the patient’s tooth, will absorb the force.

Easy to close

To close, position the ridged ends of the instrument on one side of the slot and insert the archwire. Lightly press the other end until you hear the click confirming that you have closed the slide.
