Choosing the best wire for the appliation

FLEXADENT™
Nickel Titanium Wire
NiTi -approximately 55% Ni and 45% Ti:

FLEXADENT™ - Ideal for alignment and leveling in early to mid-stages of treatment. All NiTi wires exhibit a unique “Superelastic” behavior.

Superelastic behavior provides:
•  Light to moderate, consistent forces.
•  Responsiveness to chilling.
•  Near consistent force over a long activation period.
•  Greater patient comfort over Stainless Steel wires.
•  Excellent resiliency, resulting in high resistance to permanent set.
•  High flexibility.
•  Leveling, torque, and rotation can be addressed simultaneously early in treatment. No need to treat each of these individually, as is the case if using Stainless Steel wires.

THERMADENT™
Nickel Titanium
Heat Activated
In addition, Nickel Titanium wire may also demonstrate a heat-activated "Shape Memory" effect produced through a tightly controlled manufacturing process.
THERMADENT™ Heat Activated wires are shape memory, heat-activated wires.

Shape memory properties exhibited by heat-activated, or thermal, Nickel Titanium wires:
•  Superb flexibility at room temperature, allowing for even easier ligation. Soft in the hand.
•  Very responsive to chilling.
•  Gentle forces are initiated by intraoral heat and remain consistent throughout treatment.
•  Noticeably more comfortable for the patient due to low forces.
•  Allows for patient to control discomfort with cold water rinses.

PERFECT-TI™
Nickel Titanium
(low friction)
NiTi -approximately 55% Ni and 45% Ti:
Your customers will love the efficiency of our PERFECT-Ti™ superelastic premium wires! adenta developed this ultra smooth, hard black surface nickel titanium wire engineered specifically for reduced friction and efficient tooth movement.

•  30% less friction than traditional Nickel Titanium wire provides improved sliding mechanics.
•  Our highest force Superelastic NiTi wire.
•  Hard surface is an integral part of the wire; not a coating.
•  Black color nearly indistinguishable from other wires when in the mouth.
•  Very resilient.

TRIDENT™
CNA Beta III
A titanium molybdenum wire composed of 79% Ti, 11% Mo, 6% Zr, and 4% Sn:
The characteristics of our custom designed, nickel-free Beta III Titanium wire make this perfect for use in mid- to late stages of treatment where space closure, rotation, and proper molar relationship are the goal.

•  Nickel-free! Eliminates treatment concern of nickel sensitivity in patients.
•  Excellent formability allows easy fabrication of loops and bends for space closure and tooth movement.
•  Easily accepts 1st and 2nd order bends for tipping and aligning.
•  Very good resiliency as compared to Stainless Steel.
•  Approximately half the tooth-moving force of Stainless Steel.
•  Excellent finishing wire.
•  Retainer and appliance fabrication is easy with our Beta III CNA™ 14“ lengths
•  CNA Beta III significantly outperforms TMA Beta III and easily accepts 1st and 2nd order bends without breaking issues.

DURADENT™
Stainless Steel
Our archwires are manufactured from medical grade 304V Stainless Steel material (70% Fe, 19% Cr, 9% Ni, 1.5% Mn, 0.5% Si). These archwires can be used throughout treatment but are best suited for mid - to late stages of treatment.
•  Superior surface finish.
•  Higher force and limited resiliency as compared with Beta III CNA™ wire.
•  Forces drop quickly; best suited as a finishing wire.
•  Easy to bend.
•  Greater patient discomfort when used in early treatment stages.

TWISTADENT™
Stainless Steel
Multi-strand
Adenta’s three types of multi-strand wires made of medical grade Type 302SS (71% Fe, 18% Cr, 9% Ni, 1% Mn, 0.5% Si) are well suited for early stages of treatment as well as the finishing stage of detailing and retention. Lower forces and better resiliency than solid Stainless Steel.
•  TWISTADENT™ 3-strand (twisted) wire provides moderate forces and limited flexibility.
•  TWISTADENT™ Coax (6-strand) wire provides lighter to moderate forces and slightly better resiliency than 3-strand.
•  TWISTADENT™ 8-Braid wire provides the lightest forces of the multi-strand Stainless Steel wires, with relatively good resiliency.

BEAUTYDENT™
Cosmetic Wire
Over the past few years we have made significant advances in the manufacturing process of our new BEAUTYDENT™ cosmetic archwire. This new manufacturing process insures that your cosmetic wire maintains its stain resistant coating, without the complication of the "peel-off" effect.
  • NiTi and Stainless Steel
  • Stain resistant Silver-Biopolymer Coating
  • No breaking, no peeling off
  • Anti-bacterial
  • Non-Toxic and biocompatible
  • UItra-low Friction Forces
  • Ivory/Natural tooth color
