Nitanium Palatal Expander² Multi-Purpose Finishing Appliance
The easy to use Nitanium Palatal Expander² takes expansion a step beyond. This extraordinary expansion appliance has the capacity to rotate, upright, distalize, and expand the anterior and posterior arches with gentle biocompatible force. The Nitanium Palatal Expander² Appliance’s action is the result of transition temperature and shape memory. Warmth within the patient’s mouth activates movement in the thermal nickel titanium energy wire toward the appliance’s pre-programmed shape. This produces the desired expansion in unison with tooth movement. Once the exact correction is achieved, the appliance stops expanding and lies passive.
The Nitanium Palatal Expander² Appliance offers many benefits, including the following:
- Slower expansion has shown to lower incidents of relapse*
- Thermally-activated Nitanium for total control eliminating patient’s compliance
- Ease of placement and removal by the doctor
- Ortholoy arms and loops provide adjustability for fine-tuning and finishing
- No laboratory work is required, available in 10 sizes
