Description
- Function: The primary function is to securely hold wires from removable or fixed appliances like Nance appliances, transpalatal arches (TPAs), lower lingual arches, and quad helix appliances. The added hook provides an extra anchorage point for elastics, springs, or power chains to facilitate specific tooth movements or bite corrections.
- Placement: It is usually welded onto a molar band or, in some variations, bonded directly to the lingual surface of a tooth. The position is generally towards the occlusal (biting) margin of the band.
- Design: The device is designed to be low-profile and have smooth edges to minimize soft tissue irritation and enhance patient comfort. It typically features a channel or tube (the sheath) to accept the end of an archwire, often with a latching indent to prevent the wire from accidentally slipping out.
- Aesthetics: Because it is located on the back of the teeth, it is considered a more esthetic option compared to buccal (cheek-side) attachments.
Specifications
Specific dimensions can vary by manufacturer and type, but common specifications include:
- Material: High-quality, medical-grade stainless steel for durability, strength, and corrosion resistance.
- Sheath/Tube Dimensions: Designed to accept specific wire sizes, often around 0.036 inches. Some versions can accept two 0.9 mm wires.
- Hook Orientation: Available in various configurations, including mesial/distal hooks, horizontal, or vertical styles, to suit different clinical needs. They are available for specific quadrants (e.g., upper right/lower left) or universal fit.
- Attachment Method: Available as "weldable" (for attachment to metal bands) or "bondable" (for direct bonding to the tooth surface) variants.
- Packaging: Typically sold in packs of 5 or 10 units.
- Certifications: Often produced with international certifications such as CE and ISO.
