HYCON™ Device

Controlled, predictable, safe and successful space closure was our aim, and the simple mechanics of a screw was the answer.  The movement of the tooth is determined solely by the advancement of the thread of the screw.  The thread has been precisely engineered to a pitch of 0.014”, now you can calculate this pitch by the number of turns to precisely advance the screw and close spaces with complete success.

“ When I started working as an orthodontist, I was not sure of the force generated by my closing loops. I was concerned about the periodontium tissue. The idea to close the space by means of screw mechanics eased my mind. Since 1984 all my space closing has been done by the Hycon - it has never failed me. Sometimes my colleagues tell me, they are able to treat cases with the Hycon device, that before would have been beyond therapy. This is especially important for the periodontal compromised adult patients.“
