Round archwires in .022 slot
With round archwires, the bracket is passive, resulting in minimal archwire contact
and low friction for efficient leveling and alignment.

Small square or rectangular
archwires fill the slot but do not reach the ligating mechanism. This adds control during the working phase for space closure, rotation control and arch form expression.
Larger rectangular archwires engage the ligating mechanism, offering full control for finishing and detailing.

Many orthodontists state that archwire selection is more important when working with a self-ligating appliance than with a traditional appliance. Of significant importance are the force profiles, dimensional integrity and arch form availability of the archwires.
Force Profiles
When working in a low friction environment it is important to select archwires that deliver minimal, consistent and predictable force levels. For this reason, 3M has designed archwires in a variety of materials and sizes to offer a large range of force profiles.
Dimensional Integrity
In a self-ligating system where ligatures are not actively seating the archwire, dimensional consistency is essential for the archwire to predictably express
torquing, rotating and tipping movements. All 3M square and rectangle archwires are engineered to have precise corner radii that deliver predictable torque control.
3M archwires are available in a range of dimensions and include Hybrid and Dimpled options.
Arch Forms
A critical part of successful treatment is having an archwire that predictably develops the arch form best suited for each patient. 3M provides three OrthoForm™ Arch Forms – Tapered, Square, and Ovoid – that offer the diversity needed to fit the range of arch forms among orthodontic cases.
3M also offers a large variety of wire auxiliaries to allow you to best treat your patients.

Simplified Archwire Sequence For Self-Ligating
Appliances
Note: There are many variations to this basic sequence that can be used. Archwire sequence should always be modified to best treat each individual case. Hybrid rectangular arches can be substituted depending on torque requirements.

2.10 Self-Ligating Appliances
Archwire
Tandem Archwires: Filling the Slot
Tandem archwires have shown to produce significant results in correcting rotations and creating leveling and alignment in SmartClip™ SL3.
In order to correct rotations and level and align the teeth early in treatment, the goal is to engage archwires that fill the horizontal plane and have a low unloading force. Using two flexible round archwires in tandem fills both the horizontal and vertical planes of the bracket slot. This configuration corrects and manages rotations while simultaneously correcting vertical discrepancies.
The tandem archwire should be inserted directly on top of the initial archwire used in treatment. There is no need to disengage the initial archwire, saving valuable chair time.

The choice of tandem archwire combination depends on the slot size and degree of rotational deflection. In most cases, the .018 slot option will be the .014/.014 and the
.022 slot will be the .014/.016 combination.

•Provides light continuous forces
•Force activation occurs around body temperature
•Available in square sizes making it excellent for early torque control
•Good bend retention when bent in hot water
•10/pk unit of use
