multi-dimentional labial bows

precisionortho · 10-21-2007, 06:42 PM

Does anyone know where I can find pre-formed labial bows that have a flat anterior section that contacts the incisors? I have tried all the major ortho suppliers and no one can give me an answer. I found some by Wehmer that are meant for a wrap around labial bow, but that makes them difficult to use making a standard Hawley. I have seen them in retainers fabricated by other labs and would appreciate any help. Thanks.

Hello precisionortho,
I hunted for these buggers for a while and finally found them at Ortho Technology. There web site is Orthodontic Supplies, Orthodontic Products - Ortho Technology Inc. also the phone # is 18009993161.
Good luck,
trisha

Thanks you Trisha, I appreciate your help! I've had such trouble finding those things as it sounds like you did.
