Details: Hi Dr. Cannon,
Darrell Angle in Portland. As you know I have been using your system for the past 2.5 years and love them. Just wanted to know the specific type/company of archwire your use for initial alignment/derotation.
Thanks,
Darrell |

I start out with a round nickel titanium archwire. I use either a .014, a .016 or a .018 depending the degree of rotations and or crowding. My rule of thumb is to use a size that I can easily insert into the vertical (wing) slot. I have put together a Power Point persentation of approximately one hour on how I utilize the wing slot. I have it on a UBS memory stick. If you would like I will be glad to send you one. Let me know if you would like it.
Regards
Jim Cannon |
