BIO ACTIVE

Memory Shape archwires with progressive forces by TOMY

When Metal Meets Aesthetics

Largely used in the jewelry industry, Rhodium has the unique characteristic of reducing reflection (shine).
Its silver matte finish provides a transparent appearance that enhances aesthetics.

Archwires

Our Rhodium-treated line of archwires ensures a complete aesthetic effect.
Regardless of the treatment stage, we have an archwire that meets your patient’s needs.
Archwires for the beginning of treatment such as INITIALLOY™ Rhodium shape memory archwires or BIO-ACTIVE™ Light progressive force archwires, in addition to BIO-ACTIVE™ or stainless steel archwires.
Our wide range of archwires allows you to offer patients a global treatment without compromising on biomechanics.

BIO-ACTIVE is a shape memory archwire exerting progressive force from the midline to the posterior sectors.

Its forces are consistent with those found to be biologically necessary to move each individual tooth along the arch:

• Arches .016"x.016" and .016"x.022" from 80g on incisors up to 240g on molars
• Arches .018"x.018" to .021"x.028 from 80g on incisors up to 300g on molars

In order to best use shape memory, cool the archwire before its insertion.

The true engine behind the appliance, orthodontic archwires have to meet both therapeutic requirements and patient comfort standards.
For 30 years, Tomy® Inc has been recognized as the most demanding NiTi manufacturer in regards to the biological response of its alloys.
From the superelasticity of INITIALLOY archwires to the shape memory of BioEdge and BioActive®,  we offer archwires exerting light and continuous forces, well adapted to every phase of treatment.
