Description:

"The S3TFU018 SS TFI UPPER 018 EA is a durable round stainless steel archwire tailored for upper arch treatment during the mid-phase of orthodontic care. With a .018"" diameter, it provides a step up in rigidity from earlier wires, allowing for improved tooth control while maintaining the smooth mechanics and flexibility necessary for patient comfort.

Crafted as part of the Torque Force International (TFI) series, this wire is made from high-quality medical-grade stainless steel, offering superior shape memory, strength, and resistance to corrosion. Its round profile supports continuous light force, while the added stiffness ensures better control over tipping and minor torque expression—making it ideal for progressing alignment without sacrificing gentleness.

The wire is precontoured to match the natural curvature of the upper dental arch, minimizing the need for in-office adjustments and ensuring accurate, reliable fitment. A smooth polished surface enhances sliding mechanics and reduces bracket friction, contributing to more comfortable and efficient tooth movement.

Compatible with both self-ligating and traditional bracket systems, this wire adapts seamlessly to different treatment protocols. Sold individually (EA), the S3TFU018 supports customized inventory planning and targeted replacements. Whether bridging the gap between early correction and advanced detailing, or maintaining arch coordination, it provides a solid blend of control and flexibility for consistent mid-stage results."
