- Use: A precise orthodontic tool designed for creating consistent loops and bends in rectangular or round archwires, often used in space closure or activation mechanics.
Features
- Size:
- Length: Typically 12–14 cm, compact for detailed work.
- Jaws:
- One Cylindrical Jaw: Ranges from 1 mm to 2 mm in diameter, used for forming loops.
- One Flat Jaw: Provides stability and control during wire bending.
- Material:
- High-quality stainless steel, corrosion-resistant, and fully autoclavable.
- Durable for repeated clinical use without losing precision.
- Design:
- Lightweight and ergonomically designed handles for improved control and reduced hand fatigue.
- Precise alignment of jaws ensures smooth, uniform loops and bends.
Applications
- Loop Formation:
- Used to create T-loops, omega loops, and other types of bends in wires for closing spaces and tooth movement.
- Wire Types:
- Suitable for rectangular wires (e.g., 0.016” x 0.022”) or round wires (up to 0.020” diameter).
- Clinical Uses:
- Often employed in Tweed mechanics, space closures, and anchorage adjustments.
Benefits
- Ensures precision and uniformity in orthodontic wire loops.
- Durable and versatile for various wire configurations.
- Essential for advanced wire bending and loop formation techniques.
Ideal for orthodontists focusing on Tweed mechanics and precise wire adjustments!
