3M Adhesive Dispensing Gun for Capsule Adhesives
A hand held dispensing gun that allows easy, controlled dispensing of orthodontic adhesive directly from a capsule during bonding procedures.
The 3M Adhesive Dispensing Gun is a hand held dispensing tool designed for easy dispensing of orthodontic adhesive from a capsule format during chairside bonding procedures. It is used by orthodontists and dental assistants who work with capsule delivered adhesives as part of their bracket bonding or cementation workflow, allowing the operator to dispense a controlled amount of adhesive directly to the working area without needing to manipulate the capsule by hand.
Using a dedicated dispensing gun helps keep the procedure efficient, particularly when bonding a full arch of brackets where multiple capsules may be used during a single appointment, and reduces operator fatigue compared with manual capsule dispensing. As a reusable instrument, this dispensing gun is intended to be part of a practice's permanent equipment rather than a single use item, and is used alongside compatible capsule adhesive products such as those in the Transbond range.
Practices that have adopted capsule based adhesive delivery for efficiency and consistency typically keep at least one dispensing gun on hand per treatment chair, or share a small number across their bonding stations.
