G&H TitanMoly Archwires
Apart from the name change, TitanMoly has a smoother surface than competitor brands. A state-of-the-art diamond drawing process and proprietary mechanical polishing technology ensures a smoother surface for improved sliding mechanics and a brighter finish.
With nearly twice the working range of stainless steel wires and 45% less deflection force, TitanMoly provides orthodontists with easier and faster wire sequencing which can reduce treatment times and patient discomfort.
TitanMoly is also a great wire for nickel sensitive patients as it contains no nickel.
