Description:

The 3M Unitek Permachrome Resilient Archwire is an orthodontic archwire designed for use in fixed orthodontic treatment to support controlled tooth alignment, leveling, arch coordination, and tooth movement. This product features a .016 x .022 inch rectangular cross-section, an OrthoForm II Square arch form, and an upper-arch configuration. It is intended for professional orthodontic use as part of an appropriately planned treatment protocol. The .016 x .022 inch rectangular cross-section provides a combination of flexibility and dimensional control for selected stages of orthodontic treatment. Compared with round archwires, the rectangular profile provides greater engagement with orthodontic brackets and can assist with control of tooth positioning and archwire mechanics. The resilient characteristics of the archwire are intended to provide reliable performance during clinical use while allowing orthodontic professionals to manage tooth movement according to individual treatment requirements. The OrthoForm II Square arch form provides a standardized configuration intended for the upper dental arch. A consistent arch form can assist orthodontic professionals in selecting an archwire that corresponds with the planned dental arch shape and treatment mechanics. The upper designation indicates that this archwire is intended for use in the maxillary arch. The Permachrome Resilient Archwire is designed for incorporation into compatible fixed orthodontic appliance systems. Its rectangular profile and resilient characteristics can make it suitable for selected treatment phases where greater control of tooth positioning, alignment, leveling, and arch coordination is desired. The appropriate archwire size, arch form, treatment stage, and activation should be determined by the treating orthodontic professional based on the patient's individual dental condition, appliance system, and treatment objectives. This product is supplied in a package containing 10 archwires. The 10-pack format provides multiple wires for professional orthodontic procedures and treatment applications. Archwire placement, adjustment, activation, and replacement should be performed by appropriately qualified dental or orthodontic professionals according to established clinical procedures and the patient's treatment plan. Overall, the 3M Unitek Permachrome Resilient Archwire combines a .016 x .022 inch rectangular profile with an OrthoForm II Square upper arch configuration to provide an orthodontic wire option for controlled tooth alignment, leveling, arch coordination, and positioning. Its resilient design and standardized arch form support its use during appropriate stages of fixed orthodontic treatment, while the upper configuration is intended specifically for the maxillary dental arch. The product should be selected and used according to professional clinical judgment and the requirements of the individual orthodontic treatment plan.
