QuicKlear brackets - 2nd generation

Forestadent

Now available for mandibular 3-3!

In creating the 2nd generation of QuicKlear® bracket, Forestadent have been able to further enhance the ceramic version of the well-established Quick-System. Owing to the new type of surface conditioning, the metal clip now looks dull rather than shining to ensure that it is much more inconspicuous. The edges of the brackets and slots have been rounded much more to reduce friction and increase patient comfort noticeably. 2nd generation QuicKlear® brackets are now also available for the mandible to provide all-round aesthetics.

More inconspicuous

The locking clip has a dull, polished surface which reduces reflection to ensure that the clip is even less conspicuous. The QuicKlear bracket is a self-ligating, translucent, ceramic bracket which complements the BioQuick bracket system as an aesthetic alternative. The QuicKlear is an active bracket featuring the proven and familiar closing mechanism of the BioQuick bracket system. Its outstanding aesthetics and stability promise a natural smile and short chairside times. Ideal conditions for satisfied patients.

Convenient for both patient and operator

The rounded edges on the bracket and slot provide for patient comfort. These have been rounded even more on the 2nd generation QuicKlear® brackets to cause even less friction. The proven locking technique used for Quick bracket systems is convenient for the orthodontist: Two integrated mechanisms guarantee that the locking clip can be opened easily and gently towards the occlusal aspect. The clip is now easier to open from the vestibular or gingival aspects. The especially widely-shaped guidance funnel and guidance grooves facilitate opening the clip with a probe from the gingival aspect. The clip can be closed by exerting gentle finger-pressure. The brief chairside times are pleasant for both orthodontists and patients.

Strength from the base

An absolutely newly developed and patented bracket base ensures easy and safe handling of QuicKlear brackets. The inverse-formed hook-style base with bevelled edges and diametrically offset retaining holes provides purely mechanical retention. Therefore, the QuicKlear bracket not only offers increased bond strength on teeth but also trouble-free debonding following treatment. Enamel chipping is prevented as most of the adhesive remains on the tooth after debonding.

An occluso-gingival edge on the bracket base prevents excess adhesive flowing into the clip mechanism when positioning the brackets. This edge also simplifies the removal of excessive adhesive.

FORESTADENT’s new ceramic bracket debonding tool provides for safe and splinter-proof debonding of QuicKlear ® brackets following treatment. Alternatively, modified debonding pliers can be used. Mesio-distal bevelled edges on the bracket base guarantee splinter-proof debonding.
