BioForce

BioForce - Square or Rectangluar   Optimally biological forces begin at approximately 80 grams of force at the anteriors, and gradually increase to approximately 300 grams of force in the molars. Also available with IONGUARD. Optimal Tooth Movement and Ideal Biological Forces As this chart shows, the optimal force needed to move anteriors is not the same as the optimal force needed to move molars. If a force is designed to move anteriors, it is too light to move molars. If a force is great enough to move molars, the force is too strong - traumatically strong - for anteriors. Other wires offer one force at a time, requiring at least two or three wire changes to achieve the desired movement. BioForce exhibits low forces at the anterior, gradually increases force in the bicuspids, and again in the molars. Each tooth receives the optimal biological force necessary to move specific teeth in one wire. Anterior Region of arch form has the lowest heat-activated force, as anterior teeth have the lightest roots. The Bicuspid Region of the arch maintains a slightly greater heat-activated force to move larger rooted bicuspids. The Posterior Region of the arch form has the greatest heat-activated force within the archwire for moving thestrong-rooted molars. BioForce also shares the properties of all Sentalloy wires and is designed to deliver a gentle, light continuous force to mitigate periodontal stress. UNIQUE PROPERTIES OF SENTALLOY SUPERELASTIC WIRES Body Heat Activation At room temperature, Sentalloy wires are soft, pliable, and easy to engage. Once warmed to body temperature the wire gently and predictably guides the teeth to the present arch form. Superelasticity Even when severely malposed, Sentalloy continues to exert its gentle, near constant forces as the tooth moves. Shape Memory Effect Sentalloy will take displacements up to 90 degrees without deforming. Its overwhelming desire to return to its original shape actually promotes tooth movement with fewer 0wire changes and fewer patient visits. IONGUARD - IONGUARD is not a coating; it is a fundamental change in the wire’s surface. Without changing the wire’s dimensions, or altering any of the wire’s unique superelastic properties, the process produces sliding mechanics comparable to stainless steel, while sealing the occlusal surface to reduce nickel leaching and breakage.

M5™ Copper Nickel Titanium - Preformed Lingual

Preformed Lingual These archforms were developed to meet the challenging mechanics of modern lingual treatment - designed and adapted precisely to lingual anatomy. Three anterior sizes in both upper and lower ensure a proper fit.A premium nickel titanium wire that incorporates a precise temperature transformation at 27°C for predictable tooth moving forces. G&H quality manufacturing and testing processes make M5™ Copper Nickel Titanium distinct from all other archwires used in orthodontics.Many orthodontists induce the martensitic phase by chilling the wire below its transition temperature prior to placement. Following engagement, as the thermal wire elevates in temperature within the oral cavity, the transition from martensitic to austenitic phases causes the force level to increase and the shape memory phenomenon to occur.

GAC Stop Wound Open Coil Spring

Sentalloy Stop Wound Open Coil Springs are packaged individually or in three 7” lengths to a tube. Each length is quadruple wound every 4mm. After determining the length of coil needed, simply cut the wire at the center of the tight spiral as indicated below: The quadruple wind can be cut by having one person stretch the wind while another person makes the cut; or by using a separating plier to stretch the wind and a hard wire cutter to make the cut. Sentalloy Stop Wound Open Coils with a standard lumen of .035” are available in forces of 50, 100, 150 and 200 grams. (.045” compatible coils are available in 150 grams of force only.)

GAC Open Coil Spring

Open, or compression, coils are 15mm in length when passive and may be compressed to 3mm. Between these points, the coil will exert 50 (extra light), 100 (light), 150 (medium), 200 (heavy), or 250 (extra heavy) , and 300 (XX Heavy) grams of force until 14mm, and then the force falls to 0 as it becomes passive again. No distortion will occur during movement. These low forces limit patient discomfort and ensure good circulation in the periodontal pocket during movement. Typically, you will see 4mm of space opened in three months (this varies depending on the age and health of the patient). To engage the open coils, mark the archwire where the mesial and distal tooth destinations are located. Crimp on the mesial stop and ligate the archwire up to the point where the spring is to be placed. Slide the coil over the archwire and crimp on the distal stops. Ligate the balance of the wire. Since the Sentalloy coil needs about 1/10 as much wire as steel, good hygiene is much easier, but do advise the patient to rinse and brush around the coil. No other adjustment is needed.
