GUMMETAL® is SOFT but STRONG. Therefore, easier adaptation of a full sized wire for 3 dimensional control from early phase of treatment is possible while providing optimum orthodontics force that is moderate and continuous, resulting faster teeth movement, alleviating pains.
Further benefits:
-High Spring Back and no Hysteresis: Results to maintain easier control of orthodontic force with high resilience as well as loading force that is the same as unloading force.
-More effective 3D control of tooth angle and direction.
-Low Friction: Results efficient teeth movement and is suitable for sliding mechanics. The friction between GUMMETAL surface and metal brackets is just half of other titanium wires.
-Biocompatible: All the constituent atomic elements of the alloy are biocompatible and non-toxic. GUMMETAL is Nickel free alloy for Nickel sensitive patients.
