DENTISTREE Ortho Superelastic NiTi Rectangular Dimpled Archwires Upper and Lower 017 x 025
Superelastic NiTi Archwires feature an extra smooth finish which reduces friction and results to added patient comfort. As an ideal orthodontic material, the NiTi Archwire provides higher elasticity with lower rigidity, making them excellent for treatment with its gentle and consistent recovery force bringing a much shorter treatment period.
In addition, here are the added benefits of the Dimpled Archwires;
•Easy to see in normal office light
•Permanent “dimpled” center reference mark
•Prevents “slide-out” from buccal tubes
•Reduces wire rotation
•Super-elastic Nickel Titanium
The dimple is a simple way of avoiding “walking” archwires, especially if you’re using self-ligating brackets, as archwires can move with relative ease along the brackets in the arch and could reach the soft tissue at the back of the patient’s mouth. This can result to extreme patient discomfort and possibly, emergency appointments affecting you, your staff, and your patient.
Dimpled archwires prevent archwire drift, thereby reducing the possibility of the abovementioned incident ever happening. The dimple at the center eliminates the need to cinch the archwire behind the buccal tubes and gives a permanent visual mid-line reference for treatment.
