which simplifies operation, saves time, and improves comfort. It is widely used in various fixed orthodontic cases that require traction.
Product Description
Kobayashi Wire, officially known as hooked ligature wire, is a pre formed stainless steel ligature wire specifically designed for orthodontics. Its core feature is a pre made traction hook at the end, which is used to secure the archwire and provide a traction fulcrum. It is an efficient consumable in orthodontic clinical practice, with an integrated design of pre formed traction hooks and ligatures, which simplifies operation, saves time, and improves comfort. It is widely used in various fixed orthodontic cases that require traction.There are two types of Kobayashi wires, 0.01 and 0.012 inches. There are two packaging methods: bagged and tube packed, with 100 pieces per bag or tube.This is also one of the products in our range of dental consumables.
Core Features
Pre formed hook: The traction hook is pre made at the factory and does not require a doctor to bend it on site, saving time and efficiency.
Dual function: It has the dual functions of ligation and fixation (tying archwire) and traction hook (hanging rubber band/spring).
Smooth and low friction: Surface polishing treatment reduces mucosal irritation and friction, making patients more comfortable.
Rigid and elastic balance: easy to bend, not easy to break, firmly tied and able to withstand continuous traction.
Clinical use
Traction hook fixation: No additional welding hook is required, it can be directly tied to any bracket to quickly establish the traction fulcrum.
Hanging rubber bands/springs: used for Class II/III traction, vertical traction, seam closure, and adjustment of bite.
Alternative temporary support: Used as a temporary traction hook before planting screws/bone nails.
Simplified operation: reduces bending time, improves chair side efficiency, especially suitable for novice doctors.
