The Orthometric Ultra-P Self-Ligating Passive Stainless Steel .022 MBT Brackets use a passive clip that closes the slot without pressing on the wire, giving very low friction during sliding mechanics. The clip opens and closes with an explorer.
Key Features
Passive self-ligating clip for very low-friction sliding mechanics
Opens and closes with an explorer — no dedicated instrument
Anatomical 80 µm mesh base for adhesion and retention
Rounded corners reduce soft-tissue irritation
Accepts elastic ligatures for added torque control when needed

Clinical Applications
Low-friction alignment and levelling
Sliding mechanics and space closure with reduced anchorage loss
Finishing with elastic ligatures for extra torque expression
Passive Clip with MBT Values
MBT already reduces anchorage demand; a passive clip removes the ligature friction on top of that — the two work in the same direction during space closure.
