Tri-Force Thermal Archwires

The Tri-Force Thermal Archwire is a heat-activated, multi-force, nickel titanium

archwire with three distinct force regions. Three pre-programmed forces meet
the tooth-moving demands that each section of the arch requires. The singlerooted anterior teeth receive lighter forces, while the double-rooted bicuspid
region receives a greater force level. The posterior region has the greatest
force level for the triple-rooted molars.
