Special features

Known in the industry as the
“happy medium” between
nickel titanium and stainless steel, this archwire
provides the extended
working range of a titanium
alloy and the bendability of
stainless steel.

These are top quality
aesthetic wires that keep
the coating longer than the
others on the market.

Tanzo provides a moderate
loading force with a responsiveness to chilling, which
eases engagement into
brackets. Light to moderate
unloading force delivers
predictable results and
excellent patient comfort.

Clear and virtually
indestructible labial bow
for active and passive
orthodontic appliances. Can
be bent with a three prong
plier—0% breakage rate
since 2007. Made in the
USA and Canada.

Special
features

Specifically for the Crozat Method. It comes
in various gauge sizes
ranging from 15 to
23. Wire is prepared
on a coiled spool for a
length up to 22 feet.

FiT.20 Extra Broad
Archwires take what
we have learned
about expanded arch
form to a whole new
level. Greater range
of motion sooner
with broader, more
expressive smiles upon
finishing. All in prestopped, non-coordinated arches that
reduce your stocking
requirements.

Free sliding mechanics
made easy during final
stage of closing cases.

State-of-the-art
manufacturing techniques exhibit the most
optimum hysteresis
curves possible for
both Nickel-Titanium
and Thermal Activated
Nickel Titanium. Broad
archform allows for
more natural axial
inclination of teeth
and a more functional
occlusion.

The performance
combination and
specialized processing
of copper, chromium,
nickel, and titanium
alloys provide a low
hysteresis material
that allows clinicians
to easily engage
the wire while also
providing consistent,
light unloading forces
that facilitate fast,
comfortable tooth
movement.

features

Other wires

All of the Royal Premium Wires are produced
to the standards of ISO
13585. We use only the
finest raw materials
and perform rigorous
testing before the
products are approved
for shipment.

The inclusion of copper
to the nickel titanium
alloy accentuates the
thermal properties
and provides a lighter
tactile “feel” at room
temperature. Available
in 27°C or 35°C Force
Levels.

The aesthetic tooth
colored coating is
applied to the labial
surface of the archwire
to provide a natural
cosmetic appearance
ideally suited with
RMO’s wide variety of
ceramic brackets.

All wires are compatible with stainless
steel, composite, or
ceramic brackets. Our
Tooth Tone wires are
practically invisible
in addition to being
a prime choice for
leveling, aligning,
correcting rotations,
and torque control.
Available individually
or in series.
