Aditek Buccal Tube Sgl Sl Passive Bond 022 Damon 1 pcs

The Aditek Buccal Tube Sgl SL Passive Bond 0.022 (Damon) is a single, non-convertible self-ligating molar tube built for passive self-ligating systems in Egypt. It bonds directly to the first molar and eliminates the need for elastic or steel ligatures, keeping archwire friction low and chair time short during orthodontic treatment.

Clinical Uses

• First molar tube for passive self-ligating treatment mechanics (Damon-compatible 0.022 slot)
• Cases where reduced friction and easier archwire changes are prioritized over active ligation
• Direct-bond orthodontic setups where a convertible (hook/cleat) tube is not required

Key Features

• Passive Self-Ligating Clip — no ligatures needed, reducing friction for smoother tooth movement
• 0.022 Damon-Compatible Slot — sized for direct integration with Damon passive mechanics
• Single Non-Convertible Design — simple, stable molar tube without a hook or cleat
• Bondable Micro-Mesh Base — anatomical base shape for secure adhesion to the molar surface
• Stainless Steel Body — corrosion-resistant and built for full-treatment durability
• Laser-Marked Identification — position markings for fast, accurate chairside placement

FAQ

What does "passive self-ligating" mean for a buccal tube?
A passive self-ligating tube uses a built-in clip to close over the archwire instead of an elastic or steel ligature. The clip doesn't press against the wire, so friction stays low and the wire can slide more freely as teeth move.

Is this buccal tube compatible with Damon brackets?
Yes — this is a 0.022" slot single tube designed for passive self-ligating (Damon-type) mechanics, matching the low-friction philosophy of the Damon system.

What's the difference between a convertible and non-convertible buccal tube?
A convertible tube has a hook or cleat that can be used for auxiliary attachments (like power chain or elastics); this is a single, non-convertible tube, meant for straightforward passive mechanics without an auxiliary attachment point.

How do I know which position (UR6-7, UL6-7, LL6-7, LR6-7) to order?
Each position corresponds to a specific first molar quadrant — Upper Right, Upper Left, Lower Left, and Lower Right — so a full case typically needs one of each.
