VOCO recently introduced BrackFix, a light-cured bracket bonding system that simplifies the removal of residual adhesive by making it easily visible as it fluoresces under UV light.
This helps ensure all adhesive is removed during bracket removal, while also minimizing damage to the tooth, according to a press release. It also speeds up the bracket removal process.
BrackFix’s consistency and viscosity make it possible to precisely position brackets. The brackets don’t slip, simplifying application and allowing clinicians to take as much time as needed. It can be applied with a standard primer that requires etching in advance or with a self-etch primer.
The light-cured system can handle a load immediately after placement. It is indicated for all metal and ceramic brackets and comes in a syringe that is easy to dispense.

BrackFix
Light-curing Bracket Bonding System
VOCO introduces BrackFix, the light-cured bracket bonding system that simplifies the removal of the residual adhesive by making it easily visible as it fluoresces under UV light. This ensures that during removal of the brackets, all adhesive is removed, while minimizing if not eliminating any unnecessary damage to the tooth itself. This also significantly speeds up the bracket removal process as all material to be removed is immediately apparent and visible.
The consistency and viscosity of BrackFix is formulized so that brackets can be positioned precisely, do not slip and stay in the intended position. This simplifies the application and allows the clinician to take as much time as optimally needed. BrackFix can be applied in two different ways: either with a standard primer, in which case etching is required in advance, or with a self-etch primer. Light-cured and able to handle a load immediately after placement, BrackFix is indicated for all metal and ceramics brackets and comes in an easy to dispense syringe.
