V Slot Brackets
Class II elastics are worn on one side and Class III elastics on the opposite side of the arch, with tooth movement expedited by the uprighting springs.
Rotating Springs
For V-Slot extrusion we stock every aspect from mounts and wheels to linear rails and brackets. We work closely with Openbuilds to bring you their V-Slot products to the UK and Europe for very reasonable prices. V-Slot extrusion is a versatile building system. CNC Machines can be. V-Slot Brackets for V-Slot Aluminium Profiles. V-Angle Bracket suitable for V-Slot Aluminium Profile. To be used with T-Nut 2020 M5 and Button Socket Head Cap Screw M5X8.
Rotating springs made of round wire can also be used with V-slots to correct individual dental rotations1(Fig. 6). This not only avoids the limitations of passive self-ligating brackets, but precludes the need for counter-rotational Lewis wings on narrow brackets. Since superelastic wire materials have diminished the interbracket-distance advantage of single brackets, small twin brackets with V-slots appear to provide more versatility and control.
- These are standard angle corner brackets used to connect V-Slot or 2020/2028/3030 T-Slot aluminium extrusions together for a 90 degree connection.

The Compliance+ spring* was designed for two different applications. Its force is derived from a combination with intermaxillary Class II, Class III, or delta (triangular) elastics. If the elastic hook of the Compliance+ spring is adjusted to protrude slightly into the buccal tissue, it will cause minor soft-tissue irritation that can be alleviated simply by wearing the elastics (Fig. 7). The spring auxiliary slides onto the main archwire before the leg of the spring is inserted into the V-slot. The archwire must then be tied into the bracket with a stainless steel ligature to prevent it from becoming dislodged by the spring. When the Compliance+ spring is placed over a round base archwire, it produces single-tooth labial root torque. This is often useful after a palatally impacted canine has been moved into the arch, though the root will still require labial movement. The Compliance+ spring can also provide labial root torque for lingually positioned upper or lower lateral incisor roots. To avoid generating unwanted labial torque, the spring must be used with a rectangular base archwire.
Power Arms, T-Pins, and Elastic Hooks
Orthodontic patients frequently complain about protruding ball hooks, which can be annoying in terms of appearance, comfort, and oral hygiene. V-slots permit the addition of power arms, T-pins, or elastic hooks on any individual teeth (Fig. 8).
The patient is less likely to wear elastics in the wrong configuration (such as Class II instead of Class III) when these hooks are added only where forces are required, and they can easily be removed after use. The clinician is able to prescribe intermaxillary elastics to be worn from the maxillary lateral incisors instead of the canines ('long Class II'), from the lower second premolars ('short Class II'), or even in zig-zag or 'spaghetti' configurations on nearly every tooth to improve final intercuspation. Individual hooks eliminate the inconvenience of fumbling with soldered or crimpable hooks.

| Features Benefits | |
|---|---|
| Torque In Base Compound Contour Design | These features allow for precise and easy bracket placement without 'rocking'. |
| Rhomboid Bracket Shape Permanent Scribe | Provides long axis and incisal reference for more accurate bracket placement. |
| .030 Slot Depth | Allows for improved torque control. Sectional and utility archwires may also be employed in combination with primary archwires. |
| .018 x .018 Vertical Slot | Allows for the use of uprighting, torquing and rotation auxiliaries as well as 'T' hooks for Class II and box elastics |
| 80 Gauge Foil Backed Mesh Bases | This base design provides deeper undercuts for greater bond strength. This is especially important when using modern adhesives designed to eliminate bracket drift or when bonding with high particle fill light cure materials. |
| Advanced Palladium Brazing Techniques | Eliminates bracket/ base separation and the possibility of corrosion. |
| Optional Bicuspid Base Designs Available | Regency™ V-Slot Bracket System allows for the interchanging of bicuspid offset bases, extended bases (mesially/distally), with or without hooks at no additional charge. |
