This is a multi-purpose unit combining two sections.  The anterior of the arch (.022") provides an unusual balance of formability, low deformation and resilience for multiple functions.  The posterior (.040") section, with intermaxillary hooks, has Omega Adjustable Stops attached.  This combination unit inserts into a .045" gingival headgear tube, without interfering with bracketing, and acts as both an arch length control and a multidirectional arch modifier, for control distal movement of the molar or incisal advancement when mandibular anchorage is properly used.  Omega loops are fastened in position.

Measurement is from mesial of buccal tube to mesial of buccal tube.

3D Lingual Arch

Sophisticated Lingual Arch engineering. Vertical insertion, with a friction lock provides maximum anchorage and permits multiple auxiliary functions not possible with horizontal insertion.

Twin vertical posts provide molar control, torque and rotations that are geometrically predictable.

The diamond loop design of the 3D Activator has dynamic three dimensional force mechanics and multidirectional movement possibilities with predictable forces.  It has a lingual offset to avoid mucosa compression.  There are five angles in the activator that can be adjusted slightly to give geometric predictable force vectors.  Force is dissipated 100%, resulting in a rapid controlled movement. The resilience of the Activator produces the force.

Measurement is from mesial post to mesial post.
