Flitt Ortho offers a wide range of products to help individuals achieve a healthy and confident smile. Each product is designed to address specific orthodontic issues and provide patients with effective and convenient treatment options.
Stainless steel archwire is a type of orthodontic wire made from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel. It is commonly used in orthodontic treatments to move and align teeth. The archwire is a thin, flexible wire that is attached to brackets or bands that are bonded to the teeth. As the archwire is tightened, it applies a gentle force to the teeth, gradually moving them into their desired positions. The smooth finish provides higher tensile strength making it more resistant to breakage compared to standard stainless steel wires. This is because a smooth finish reduces the likelihood of micro-fractures and surface defects that can occur in rougher surfaces, which can weaken the wire over time.
It also have better formability and can be readily used to be soldered and welded for fabrication of complex orthodontic appliances. It is designed to move teeth with light continuous forces.
