SmartClip™ Self-Ligating Appliance System

Smart Clip The SmartClip™ Appliance system from 3M Unitek allows more comfortable tooth movement, longer intervals between appointments (which means less time off work or school), and usually shorter treatment times.  This system dramatically advances bracket design and revolutionizes orthodontic treatment. With sophisticated engineering that integrates the unique properties of nickel-titanium into a precisely designed form, 3M Unitek innovators have created a clip mechanism that brings the first truly self-ligating appliance to orthodontics.

The SmartClip Appliance System brings unmatched efficiencies and more predictable outcomes to orthodontic treatment.
