Nitinol Heat-Activited

Nitinol Heat-Activated is a thermally activated super-elastic archwire. It is the easiest of Nitinol wires to engage, and it delivers light continuous forces that effectively move teeth with minimal discomfort to the patient.

  • Can be cooled or chilled resulting in a softer, more pliable wire for easy engagement
  • Provides light continuous forces
  • Force activation occurs around body temperature
  • Available in square sizes making it excellent for early torque control
  • Good bend retention when bent in hot water
  • 10/pk unit of use

Nitinol  Super-Elastic

Nitinol Super-Elastic is easy to engage and maintains light continuous forces with a range between Nitinol Heat-Activated and Nitinol Classic.

  • Provides light continuous forces
  • Easy engagement characteristics
  • Good early torque control
  • 10/pk unit of use
  • Available in Reverse Curve in folder pack of 10 wires

Nitinol Classic Archwires

3M pioneered nickel-titanium as an improved alternative to stainless steel in 1977. This “Classic” archwire continues to provide the linear elasticity and bendability of high strength steel and the elastic working range and lighter forces that only a nickeltitanium can deliver.

  • Long working range
  • 40% the forces of stainless steel
  • 10/pk unit of use
