An innovative use of the K-SIR arch
Journal Title: IP Indian Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Research - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
Segmental arch mechanics are always preferred mechanics of choice since a known force system is delivered to the teeth without loss of force to friction The springs available for single canine retraction are complicated in design and time consuming to fabricate This article presents an innovative way to use the KSIR arch wire for single canine retractionKeyword Segmental arch mechanics Individual canine retraction KSIR arch
