Adenta's Solid Stainless Steel archwires are produced of high quality medical grade Type 304VSS material with highly polished surfaces to provide reduced friction between bracket and arch.  Their high forces are well-suited for stabilizing positioned teeth during mid- to late stages of treatment. Rectangular wires offer precise torque control for these same stages. 

Solid Stainless Steel Lengths (14") produced of high quality Type 302SS material have a smooth finish and are available in a wide range of wire sizes for custom appliance fabrication.

• Superior smooth, bright finish.

• Precise shape and flatness of arches is ensured through tight production control.

• Best suited as finishing wire, as forces drop quickly as teeth move.

• Easy bend placement.

• Good corrosion resistance.

Adenta’s 3-Strand wires are made of three equal-sized medical grade Type 302SS wires twisted into a single, fine wire to provide moderate tooth-moving forces. Three-Strand Stainless Steel archwires are best-suited for initial alignment and the finishing stage of treatment.

• Bright surface finish.

• Moderate force, but drops quickly as teeth move.

• Moderate resiliency; measurably better than Solid Stainless Steel wire.

(3-Strand Stainless Steel wire is also available in 14 inch lengths and 30 foot spools.)

Coax wire is made of five equal-size wires wrapped around a single, same-size core wire. Manufactured of high quality medical grade Type 302SS. Offers low to moderate forces and relatively good resiliency. Appropriate for use in early or late treatment stages.

• Bright finish.

• Low to moderate forces.

• Good for initial alignment.

• Relatively good resiliency.

• Short activation time, as forces drop quickly as teeth move.

(Coax Stainless Steel wire is also available in 14 inch lengths and 30 foot spools.)

8-Braid wires are made of eight fine, equal-sized Type 302SS wires braided tightly and rolled to the most popular square and rectangle wire sizes. 8-Braid Stainless Steel archwires combine high resiliency and low tooth-moving forces. Best for early and late treatment stages.

• High resiliency.

• Easy to ligate.

• Low forces.

• Great for aligning and for finishing.

• Rectangle wires can be used for added torque control.

(8-Braid Stainless Steel wire is also available in 14 inch lengths.)

Accurate placement and consistent shape of our Keyhole Loops ensure your customers great results!

• Medical grade 304V Stainless Steel wire.

• Bright, smooth, flat surfaces.

• Used in sliding mechanics for extraction space closure and in non-extraction Class II cases.

• Commonly used in combination with elastics or closed coil springs.

Stainless Steel Keyhole Looped archwires are available in 2- and 4-loop options.

Arch Form The size of the arch forms is proportional to the anterior loop spacing; see arch forms below for reference.

Wire Sizes 2- and 4-Loop: .016 x .022 .017 x .025 .019 x .025

4-Loop only: .021 x .025

Anterior Loop Spacing for 2-Keyhole loops and 4-Keyhole Loops (measured from center of mesial loops):  22 – 44mm, in 2mm increments
