# Orthodontic Archwires

## Which archwire belongs at each stage of treatment?

Match the wire to the treatment stage: super-elastic and heat-activated NiTi deliver light, continuous forces for early alignment and levelling, while stiffer stainless steel wires give the control needed for working and finishing. Coil springs manage space. Innobrace stocks round and rectangular wires across the common dimensions for a complete progression.

The archwire is the engine of tooth movement. Innobrace offers a full sequence — from super-elastic and heat-activated NiTi for gentle alignment, through stainless steel for working and finishing stages, to coil springs for space management.

Round and rectangular wires are available across the common dimensions so clinicians can build the exact archwire progression their mechanics require.

## Frequently asked questions

### When should I use NiTi versus stainless steel archwires?

NiTi archwires deliver light, continuous forces ideal for early alignment and levelling. Stainless steel wires are stiffer and used for working and finishing stages where greater control is needed.

### What are coil springs used for?

NiTi and stainless steel coil springs open or close space along the archwire — open-coil to create space, closed-coil to retract — providing controlled, continuous force.

### Do you supply both round and rectangular wires?

Yes. Round wires suit early alignment while rectangular wires deliver torque and finishing control. Innobrace stocks both across the common dimensions.
