Adenta offers five Reverse Curve of Spee (RCS) archwire shapes to meet your correction of curve of spee needs. All are carefully finished to ensure that the wire slides easily through the bracket slot and applies continuous force for ideal movement. RCS can be used for bite correction or, with springs and elastomerics, for retraction.

Available in both Superelastic Nickel Titanium and Thermadent Heat-activated Medium Force archwires.

Superelastic Nickel Titanium RCS wires provide light to moderate, constant forces. These wires are flexible and exhibit excellent resiliency.

Thermadent Heat-activated Medium Force RCS are shape-memory, heat-activated wires which are soft at room temperature for easy ligation and become fully active in the mouth. The gentle forces remain consistent throughout placement and are noticeably more comfortable for the patient. The superb flexibility reduces the chance of debonding brackets.
