It is a small, rectangular wire made from a combination of titanium and nickel alloys, which gives it unique properties that make it suitable for use in orthodontic treatment.
The Shape 3 is a specific shape of archwire that is designed to fit the lower arch of the teeth. The use of titanium and nickel alloys in the wire allows it to provide gentle, continuous forces to the teeth, which helps to facilitate tooth movement.
The Super Elastic property of the wire allows for greater flexibility and shape memory, which means that the wire can be easily bent and shaped to fit the patient's individual anatomy. This allows for greater precision in tooth movement and a more comfortable experience for the patient.
The Shape 3 shape of the wire is designed to provide optimal flexibility, which is important in correcting certain types of malocclusions, particularly those involving the lower jaw. It is also designed to work in conjunction with other orthodontic appliances such as brackets, bands, and springs, to achieve optimal treatment outcomes.
