According to this latest publication from Meticulous Research®, the global orthodontics market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 11.7% from 2018 to reach $6,035.0 million by 2023. The growing number of dentists, increasing prevalence of malocclusion, and growing awareness about advanced orthodontic treatments are the key factors driving the growth of this market. In addition, adoption of advanced imaging modalities and treatment planning software are further expected to increase the number and quality of orthodontic treatments which in turn will drive the market growth. On the other hand, the high cost of advanced orthodontic treatments and limited reimbursement is expected to hinder the growth of this market.

Pre-Stopped Archwires, Dimples, and Cinch Back Bends

The possibility of nickel titanium archwires slipping through brackets and migrating around the arch has long been recognized. Cinch back bends are difficult to apply & retain in Nickel Titanium and dimple offsets at the mid-line have been the conventional solution to the problem.

We have another solution!

Our pre-stopped nickel titanium archwires, especially popular with self-ligating bracket systems, come pre-loaded with properly tempered crimpable stops. They are friction fit on the wire so they may be slid into position easily, a final crimp is applied to set them permanently.

Available in G4™ Nickel Titanium and M5™ Thermal Nickel Titanium.

Clinical Tip: Stops can be positioned anywhere on the archwire, but are generally crimped mesial to anterior crowding.

Selecting Archwires Based Upon Performance Characteristics

Using an archwire without knowing its performance characteristics would be like using brackets with unknown prescription values. Selecting wire products based upon their known qualities will give you the ability to apply force with quick, gentle and expedient results.

Our wire performance documentation, along with our extensive inventory, will help you formulate wire progression based on ideal treatment objectives: systematically maintain, increase or reduce applied force over various ranges of activation.

We record the delivery and recovery forces of our wire using our state-of-the-art stress/strain 3-point wire test (picture). A load cell probe impacts a wire in a 37°C (body temperature) water-bath and records the forces throughout the range, from deflection to recovery. We then use that documented data to create our Force Value Graphs, giving you a reference to the recovery force, in grams, of each G&H brand archwire that is available to you

As a premier orthodontic wire manufacturer, we maintain total control of all material specifications and a unique production processes that no other manufacturer can match consistently. This allows us to deliver a world-class quality product.
