Morelli Bondable Buttons Round Base 10/pk

Preparation:

• Ensure the tooth surface is clean and dry before bonding or welding the button.
• Select the appropriate size and configuration of the button based on the tooth’s anatomy and the desired orthodontic movement.

Bonding/Welding:

• Apply orthodontic adhesive to the base of the button or use a welding technique, depending on the material and dentist’s preference.
• Carefully position the button on the desired location of the tooth surface, ensuring proper alignment for optimal functionality.
• Apply gentle pressure to secure the button in place and remove any excess adhesive or welding material.

Activation:

• Once the button is securely bonded or welded, integrate it into the orthodontic treatment plan according to the prescribed protocol.
• Attach elastic bands, chains, wires, or ligatures to the button as needed to facilitate the desired tooth movement, such as rotation correction, space closure, or anchorage.

Monitoring and Adjustment:

• Regularly monitor the progress of the orthodontic treatment, including the function and stability of the bonded/welded buttons.
• Make necessary adjustments to the orthodontic setup, such as changing elastic bands or modifying wire configurations, to achieve optimal results.

Maintenance:

• Instruct the patient on proper oral hygiene practices to maintain the integrity of the bonded/welded buttons and prevent plaque buildup or damage to the tooth surface.
• Advise the patient to avoid biting on hard or sticky foods that could dislodge or damage the buttons.

Removal:

• When the orthodontic treatment is complete or if the buttons need replacement, carefully remove them using appropriate orthodontic instruments and techniques.
• Take care to minimize trauma to the tooth structure during the removal process, and polish the tooth surface if necessary to remove any residual adhesive or welding material.
