Choosing the Right Bracket Positioning Gauge
- Fixed vs Adjustable Head Gauges — Fixed gauges offer preset heights for standard cases. Adjustable head gauges allow customisation for varied bracket prescriptions and patient anatomy, offering greater versatility.
- Slot Compatibility — Match your gauge to your bracket slot size. Most gauges are designed for 0.022-inch slots, so verify compatibility with your preferred bracket system before purchasing.
- Star-Type Boone Gauges — Star gauges feature multiple preset measurement tips. These instruments allow quick height selection by rotating to the required measurement, speeding up bonding procedures.
- IPR Gauges for Interproximal Reduction — IPR gauges measure enamel removal accurately. Essential for aligner cases and space management, these gauges help you control stripping dimensions precisely.
- Force Measuring Gauges — Force gauges assess wire and spring tension. Useful for calibrating orthodontic forces during treatment, ensuring optimal pressure for tooth movement.
- Bracket Holders with Alignment Features — Holders with side slot aligners aid bracket pickup. These instruments secure the bracket during placement while maintaining correct orientation for accurate bonding.
