1.6-2.0 Titannium Alloy Orthodontic Anchorage Screw

The titanium Alloy Orthodontic Anchorage Screw, also known as a micro-implant anchorage screw or micro-screw implant, is a small metal screw made of titanium alloy. It is primarily used to provide additional support and resistance during orthodontic treatment, helping to move teeth into their ideal positions. By serving as a fixed point for corrective forces, the titanium alloy orthodontic anchorage screw allows for more precise control over the direction and speed of tooth movement, ensuring that teeth are aligned according to the predetermined trajectory.

Specification

Features

1. Biocompatibility: Titanium alloy has minimal biological response with the human body, is non-toxic and non-magnetic, making it safe as an implant without adverse effects.
2. Mechanical Properties: It boasts high strength and low elastic modulus, meeting mechanical requirements while being lower than that of natural bone, which reduces the shielding effect and promotes bone growth and healing.
3. Corrosion Resistance: Titanium alloy is a biocompatible inert material with excellent corrosion resistance in the physiological environment of the body, ensuring no damage occurs.
4. Weight: The density of titanium alloy is only 56% that of stainless steel, significantly reducing the burden on the body after implantation.

Indications and Effects

The titanium alloy orthodontic anchorage screw is suitable for various orthodontic treatment needs, such as severe tooth crowding, protruding teeth, gummy smiles, deep overbites, crossbites (underbites), and midline shifts or malocclusions caused by the loss of posterior teeth. By providing stable anchorage, the titanium alloy orthodontic anchorage screw can significantly improve the alignment of teeth and occlusion relationships, enhancing both the aesthetic and functional aspects of the oral cavity.
