JMU Titanium Molybdenum Alloy Archwire, Over-Expanded, 1/Pk

Description

• A Titanium Molybdenum (TiMo) Alloy Archwire is a type of orthodontic archwire made from a combination of titanium and molybdenum. This alloy possesses unique properties that make it suitable for certain orthodontic applications. arly useful in cases where precise placement of the archwire is challenging.
• Applications: Titanium Molybdenum Alloy Archwires are often used in the initial stages of orthodontic treatment, especially when more flexibility is desired for tooth alignment. They may also be used in specific cases where a combination of strength and flexibility is needed.
• Advantages:
  Reduced Friction: TiMo alloy archwires may have a lower coefficient of friction compared to stainless steel archwires, potentially reducing friction between the archwire and brackets.
  Lightweight: The use of titanium in the alloy contributes to the lightweight nature of these archwires.

Over-Expanded Form Archwires

• Description: Over-expanded form archwires are further widened compared to expanded form archwires.
• Use: They are used in cases of severe crowding where more significant expansion is needed to create the necessary space for proper alignment.
