Orthodontic Brackets
Micro Sprint
Micro Sprints are among the smallest orthodontic brackets in the world. They are manufactured as a single piece using a sophisticated metal injection moulding process. All bracket edges have been rounded to optimise wearing comfort. The base is anatomically curved, providing the brackets with a clean fit to the tooth surface. Tiny opposing hooks in the base ensure a secure attachment to the tooth. Laterally positioned slants allow for the safe placement of special pliers to remove the brackets at a later stage.
Statement by the Jury
Micro Sprint’s complex geometry is surprisingly robust. It lends the brackets a high-quality and unobtrusive appearance.
