D-LX Arch Form — Compare to Ormco’s Damon® Arch* for a Full Self-Ligating System
Offer your patients a beautiful, broader smile with D-LX Archwires.
Based on the belief that a smile is optimized by an arch form that displays well-positioned anterior teeth, the first and second bicuspids, and the mesiobuccal surface of the first molars, this broader form archwire helps prevent dark corners in the posterior of the mouth thus presenting a wide smile. In addition, D-LX Archwires combined with low-friction brackets like Ortho Organizers® Carriere® Self-Ligating Brackets offer more non-extraction treatment options.
D-LX Archwire Benefits and Features
- Lower costs from reduced inventory requirements – universal shape allows for use in both the upper and lower arches
- Posts and micro-stops not mandated with archwire – customize to your treatment preference with crimpable hooks and micro-stops†
- Promote hygiene with autoclavable** single packs
- Easy to manage inventory with clearly labeled individual packs and color-coded boxes
The D-LX Archwire Sequence
Ortho Organizers recommends a four phase process when utilizing the D-LX Archwires for treatment. As with any case, each treatment plan is unique depending on the patient. The highlighted archwire sequence, found here, for brackets with an .022 slot can be used as the basis for maximizing the properties of the D-LX Archwires.
