Stainless Steel Straight 5+1 Coax Flex Wires For Post-Orthodontic Fixed Retention
Stainless Steel straight 5+1 Coax Flex wires Made from medical-grade 316L stainless steel, this multi-strand twist wire is specifically designed for post-orthodontic fixed retention. Its multi-strand twisted structure offers a perfect balance of rigidity and flexibility, while the textured surface enhances resin bonding strength and reduces debonding rates. It effectively prevents relapse (teeth shifting), ensures comfortable wear, and is suitable for various anterior fixed retainers and periodontal splinting needs.
Product Description

Advantage
Application scenarios
The "Vanguard Archwire" for the Alignment Stage
In the initial phase of orthodontic treatment, if a patient presents with severe dental crowding, dentists will often choose this 6-strand twist wire as their first-choice initial archwire.
Ultra-light Orthodontic Force
Because it is composed of multiple fine wires twisted together, it has extremely low stiffness and excellent elasticity. The more strands there are, the better the flexibility—making it easier to maintain close contact with the teeth while delivering a softer, gentler spring action. This means it can apply a very mild and continuous force to severely crowded or rotated teeth, significantly reducing the soreness and discomfort patients often feel during the early stages of orthodontic treatment.
Easy Handling
Its superior flexibility allows dentists to effortlessly engage it into the brackets, even when the teeth are highly irregular or crooked, helping the teeth take that crucial first step toward alignment with ease.
The "Invisible Bodyguard" After Treatment.
Similar to a lingual retainer wire, it provides secure and reliable protection against relapse.
