3M Victory Series Mini Tubes, Second Molar

3M Victory Series Mini Tubes are orthodontic tubes designed to address the specific challenges of bonding to partially erupted second molars, a situation where limited crown height and access can make conventional tube bonding more difficult. The tube features a mesially-extended, compound contoured, micro-etched bonding base intended to give the orthodontist a larger, better adapted surface for bonding even when only part of the tooth has erupted, supporting improved fit and bond strength in these more challenging clinical situations.

A short, low profile hook is built into the design to enhance patient comfort, reducing the bulk that a taller or more prominent hook could otherwise add to the appliance in the back of the mouth. These mini tubes are supplied across a range of positions for both upper and lower arches, and are compatible with several adhesive precoat options including APC II, APC Plus, APC Flash-Free and a non-coated version, giving practices flexibility in how they bond the tubes depending on their preferred protocol.

The listing notes that Victory Series Mini Tubes are transitioning to Solventum branding, in line with the broader corporate rebrand, while the tube design itself continues to serve orthodontists managing second molar bonding cases.
