Beta-Titanium produces forces approximately 40% stronger than Nickel Titanium, but has only 42% of the stiffness of stainless steel.
Clinical advantages:
* Stiffness and Resiliency
The stiffness and resiliency inherent in beta titanium wires, allow you to apply larger wire sizes earlier in treatment.
* Torque Qualities
Due to their force and flexibility, BTA archwires have excellent torque qualities and the ability to add torque when necessary.
* Nickel Free
BTA archwires contain no nickel, which is known to cause a reaction or irritation in some patients.
* Ductility and Formability
The ductility and formability of BTA arches allows you to form loops and bends with ease. The superior ductility also ensures that fracturing does not occur.
* Pain reduction
Because of the lighter forces applied by BTA wires, in comparison with the forces found in stainless steel, these archwires are an excellent choice for patients with a low tolerance.
