Zero Base Orthodontics is a patient specific diag-
nostic system that gathers information in a logical and
efficient way, enabling the orthodontist to diagnose and
individualize each patient’s treatment, based on degree
of difficulty.
The key is the ability to diagnose and treat any facial
dysfunction in four dimensions: transverse,
anterior/posterior, vertical, and time.
Zero Base Orthodontics uses baseline logic to diag-
nose and develop treatment prescriptions utilizing state-
of-the-art appliances for time efficient treatments and
functional results. It also offers the clinician a wider
range of options in therapy and a higher level of sophis-
tication and efficiency in patient management.
Dr. Carl F. Guginograduated in 1953, at the University of
Buffalo where he specialized in
Orthodontics in 1961. A member of
the most important American and
European societies of orthodontists, he has practiced
orthodontics exclusively and held lectures on this sub-
ject throughout the world. Dr. Gugino is President of
the French R.M. Ricketts Society and of the
Bioprogressive Study Club in Japan as well as a mem-
ber of the Foundation for Orthodontic Research.
Dr. Gugino is the author of the next generation
Bioprogressive™ Philosophy, ZeroBase Orthodontics™
which combines treatment planning and diagnosis into
time efficient treatments.
The Continuing Education Program based on the
ZeroBase Orthodontic Philosophy will provide ortho-
dontists with a clear and complete vision of what ortho-
dontics is and which problems orthodontics aims to
solve.
We still classify orthodontics by the different
mechanics techniques used by the professionals, and
while mechanics is obviously important, it is just a
portion of orthodontics. To be really successful it is
necessary to remove the causes that originated the mal-
occlusion.
Dr. Gugino has developed his logical approach by
applying management science criteria to orthodontics.
He and his group of associated clinical trainers present
a worldwide intensive Education Program includingbasic and advanced ZeroBase Orthodontics Courses
where one of the most important and differentiating
features is the use of the leading edge technologies in
orthodontics, practice management and a paperless
office ... today a key success factor ... tomorrow a pre-
requisite of a competitive orthodontic off ice.

Dr. Terry Sellkeopened his orthodontic specialty
practice in 1974. He and his part-
ner, Donald J. Reily, D.D.S., M.S.,
have three office locations in
Illinois. He has been actively involved in teaching since
1970 at the University of Illinois at Chicago. His activ-
ities have involved teaching of early treatment, surgical
orthodontics, the ZeroBase technique, ethical marketing
of an orthodontic practice, business aspects of ortho-
dontics, graduate options upon graduation (pros and
cons), and in recent years, Masters Thesis Advisor.

3M Unitek has worked closely with Dr. Carl Gugino to
configure an orthodontic appliance system that con-
forms to the ZeroBase philosophy. This encompasses a
range of fully compatible APC™ Brackets, micro-etched
molar bands, buccal tubes and quad-helices that allow
standardization as well as individualization of the pre-
scription based on the facial type of the patient. This
new appliance offers the orthodontist the opportunity to
efficiently individualize diagnosis, treatment, and fin-
ishing by using a prescription that will accommodate
the three different facial/skeletal types while effectively
managing inventory. The system allows the anterior/posterior position of
the denture to be individualized to facial morphology or
treatment objective. The lower incisors are key to den-
ture position for occlusion, function and aesthetics. To
accomplish these objectives, anterior guidance requires
the upper incisor torque be individualized. Therefore,
in the ZeroBase appliance, we have upper incisor torque
values for the three different facial types.
The Mesofacial prescription will be appropriate for
about 70% of orthodontic patients. The Brachyfacial
and the Dolichofacial prescriptions will allow a specific
individualized treatment for these types by using the
majority of brackets in the Mesofacial prescription with
limited additions of specific brackets.

3M Unitek presents the ZeroBase Orthodontics™
Appliance in the Victory Series System including
Miniature Metal Brackets, Buccal Tubes and Micro-
Etched Molar Bands.
Victory Series brackets feature high bond strength,
easily readable identification system and better bracketligation than competitive brackets. The innovative base
design, incorporating an 80 gauge woven mesh bonding
pad, closely matches the curvature of each tooth for
maximum contact and strong, consistent bond strength.
Bracket designs incorporate torque-in-base function
for level arch alignment and a long axis scribe line for
accurate placement. Brackets are color-coded to corre-
spond with a specific quadrant in the mouth.
The Victory Series buccal tubes include a patented,
trouble-free integral convertible cap that converts easily
and consistently, every time.
The inner surface of our Victory Series micro-etched
bands is uniformly etched which creates a higher reten-
tion bonding surface and provides significantly
increased bonding strength.
Bondable molars with micro-etched bases are also
available.Victory Series brackets and bondable molars are
available with APC™ Adhesive Coating.

The APC adhesive coated Victory Series™ Appliance
System will allow you to get maximum benefit when
using the ZeroBase Orthodontics™ Appliance. The
APC system is the fastest, most convenient and effi-
cient method you can use for bracket application. This
is the only orthodontic bonding system that coats the
base of each bracket and molar bonding base with
adhesive. There is no mixing, no application, no oppor-
tunity to contaminate the base, and, therefore, fewer
bond failures. And since the amount of adhesive is
strictly controlled, there is little flash clean-up.
The APC Inventory and Dispensing System gives
you the flexibility and control you need to keep pace
with today’s demand for higher office efficiency andinventory management. The system consolidates brack-
et and bondable molar inventory in a compact, orga-
nized unit with removable storage trays. These efficien
organizer trays enable you to see, at a glance, your
entire bracket and bondable molar inventory.
APC adhesive coated appliance system allows you to
effectively implement the Zero Base Orthodontics
patient specific philosophy into your practice.

The MIA Mobile Intraoral Arch is a palatal and lingual appliance
that further enhances treatment efficiency in the ZeroBase
Orthodontic™ System. Other Quad-Helix lingual arches are convention-
ally soldered to molar bands and require cementation or rebanding each
time you need to place or remove the arch. The MIA system makes the
application less time consuming, offering the advantage of inserting
and removing the lingual arches into sheaths pre-welded on bands.
Easy removal and reinsertion allow greater flexibility and control dur-
ing treatment. The system offers various preformed sizes with straight
or curved retention sheaths.

The ZeroBase Orthodontic Treatment Philosophy takes
advantage of contemporary wire technology. It is now
feasible to replace Elgiloy™ wires and multiloop arch-
es with a simplified mechanics system. This means
fewer arch changes and far fewer expensive and time
consuming multilooped arches; today’s utility arch isfabricated of improved stainless steel preformed arches.
With ZeroBase Orthodontics each patient’s wire
sequence is of necessity, individualized. Only the wires
needed to treat each case are chosen from the following
inventory. The result is minimal archwire changes,
minimal fabrication, and minimal costly inventory.
