NiTi Thermal Orthodontic Archwire

NiTi Thermal (TiNol-2)
TiNol-2 thermal archwires have martensite present at room temperature, but go through a transformation change to austenite, which strengthens the wire once placed in the mouth.
TiNol-2 is soft outside the mouth for easier ligation, but elastic modulus increases to produce a fully austenitic wire once in the mouth.
TiNol-2 archwires are the wire of choice for severe malocclusions, and offer earlier rectangular wire engagement.
Key Features
- Tooth Friendly Forces
- Laser Marked Midline
- Diamond Polished
- Kink Resistant
Product Characteristics
TiNol-2 is a very gentle wire and very comfortable for the patient. A .016X.022 rectangular archwire has approximately the same force as a .016 round TiNol-2 wire.
Softness of wire makes it more vulnerable to permanent deformation compared to super elastic NiTi wires. But if the TiNol-2 is not deformed beyond the yield point while ligating, permanent deformation is avoidable.
