Labial IB Overview
Indirect Bonding has been used throughout the profession for more than 25 years. While many practices were initially successful with Indirect, problems arose that prevented the technique from becoming an industry standard. Over the years, however, advances such as customized bracket placement, specialized adhesive systems and transparent transfer trays have helped Indirect Bonding become a highly accurate and dependable system that doctors now rely on with the highest of confidence.

Several Benefits of Indirect Bonding
Certainly the primary advantage associated with indirect bonding is accuracy in bracket placement. Having the advantage of placing brackets on a construction model instead of the patient has always made sense from a positioning standpoint. Another advantage discussed in many practices is the efficiency in delivering the brackets at the initial appointment. Some offices report as little as half the doctor’s time required for bonding, when using indirect compared to the direct method. In addition, when done properly, indirect bonding offers an extremely clean and hygienic method of placing brackets.
