Download Free (EPUB, PDF)

Effective wire bending techniques that are customized to each individual patient make orthodontic treatment more efficient and can reduce treatment time. In lieu of overly complicated wire bending, the author of this manual promotes precise, intuitive bending and presents the proven methods that work with any biologically compatible wire. The essential components and techniques of customized wire bending are detailed step-by-step, including trimming of casts; selection and proper manipulation of pliers; the first-order bends (in or out), second-order bends (up or down), and third-order bends (torque); and optimal methods of adjustment to be used during orthodontic treatment. In addition, the author elucidates the "fourth-order bend," which is the understanding of how to use a wire effectively to apply orthodontic force to a patient over time. Technical images and case presentations illustrate each step of the process to ensure maximum comprehension. A must-have guide for orthodontic residents and practitioners alike.Contents1.

At first, trimming of casts and selection of pliers are summarized.In wire bending chapter, mandibular ideal arch, reverse closing loop, contraction utility arch, horizontal L open boot loop, vertical open loop, horizontal T open loop , vertical approximated helical closing loops were described with figures step by step manner. Last chapter is about clinical cases.

I was disappointed with the book,it seems that the author has not moved with the times.I probably won't read it again.

It's very useful for all orthodontist who doesn't know how to manipulate an archwire ideally, like forming orizontal and vertical loops , producing intrusion with utility or simultaneously closing anterior space with it

Not that practical
