Bondable Buccal Tubes Roth First Molar

Buccal tubes are small, weldable or bondable orthodontic attachments that are typically placed on the buccal (cheek) side of the molar teeth. These tubes feature slots or channels that serve as receptacles for the ends of archwires or other auxiliary appliances used in orthodontic treatment. Their primary function is to provide secure anchorage and directional control for archwires as they guide tooth movement. Buccal tubes are manufactured in various designs, including single or multiple tubes per bracket, and with different entry angles to accommodate diverse treatment mechanics and archwire progressions. They are a crucial component in fixed orthodontic appliances, facilitating efficient and predictable tooth alignment.
