MBT™ Versatile+
APPLIANCE SYSTEM
In more than 20 years of experience with the preadjusted appliance, Drs. McLaughlin, Bennett and Trevisi have all noted
its very positive aspects, but have also seen a need for refinements in certain areas. These improvements are at the core of the
MBT™ Prescription and have been incorporated into four current bracket designs from 3M Unitek (Clarity™ Brackets, Victory
Series™ Brackets, Victory Series™ Low Profile Brackets and Unitek™ Full Size Brackets. Additionally, for orthodontists who
prefer a self-ligating option, SmartClip™ Self-Ligating Brackets are offered in the MBT Prescription). These options give
patients greater flexibility while enabling the orthodontist to provide maximum control and treatment efficiency.

APC™ Adhesive Coated appliance system
The APC™ Adhesive Coated Appliance System from 3M Unitek is the fastest, most convenient and efficient method you
can use for appliance application and bonding. Initially offered in single patient kits, today’s APC system is available with a
comprehensive Inventory Dispensing System (IDS) that has been designed to fit into your operatory delivery protocol.
Most orthodontic professionals will agree that “successful bonding” is the single most important factor in keeping a
practice and its schedule stress-free. The APC system not only reduces variables that contribute to bond failure, but goes
above and beyond by simplifying the set-up procedure as well as providing an inventory framework that is easy to control
and manage.
The APC Inventory Dispensing System is built to your specifications. 3M Unitek understands that each orthodontic
office is unique and has special needs.

MBT™ System Text Books
Contents Include:
1. General information on research involved in
bracket placement techniques as well as
information on the use of the bracket
placement chart.
2. Individual information on each tooth in the
dentition concerning general mechanical
considerations and common clinical concerns.
3. In each chapter a detailed discussion of the MBT™ Bracket
Prescription and rationale for use of these brackets is discussed
in detail.
Treatment Goals
The MBT™ System has clear treatment
objectives, which were initially described in
Books Two and Three, but which are now fully
encapsulated in a dedicated textbook – Facial
and Dental Planning for Orthodontists and
Oral Surgeons by Drs. G. William Arnett and
Richard P. McLaughlin. Recently published,
this includes a systemized and objective
approach to diagnosis and treatment planning.
It successfully re-defines treatment goals and
diagnostic methods, and provides the final
element in the MBT system.
