The Morelli Antimicrobial Elastomeric Pre-Loaded Canes — Sky Blue are a pale, open blue that stays legible under operatory light without competing with the bracket underneath. The elastomer carries an antimicrobial additive in the polymer matrix, and the manufacturer states this prevents the development and growth of fungi and bacteria, reduces stains and unwanted odors, and preserves the mechanical properties of the elastic.
