3M Transbond XT Light Cure Adhesive
3M Transbond XT is a light-cure orthodontic adhesive used to bond metal and ceramic brackets to tooth surfaces, available in syringes and capsules.
The 3M Transbond XT Light Cure Adhesive is an orthodontic bonding adhesive used to attach metal and ceramic brackets securely to the tooth surface at the start of fixed appliance treatment. It is designed to resist adhesive run-on, meaning excess material is less likely to spread beyond the bracket base during placement, which helps the orthodontist achieve cleaner, more precise bracket positioning and reduces the time needed for clean-up around each bracket.
Available in both syringes and capsules, it gives orthodontic teams a choice of delivery format to suit their preferred bonding workflow and the number of brackets being placed in a given appointment. The adhesive's quick cure under a dental curing light allows the archwire to be tied in almost immediately after bonding, which shortens the overall length of the bonding appointment for both the patient and the clinical team.
Orthodontists and their assistants use adhesives like this one at the start of most fixed appliance treatments. Orthodontic practices across the UAE and GCC commonly stock Transbond XT as their standard bracket bonding adhesive.
