This appliance provides effective distal molar movement and limits mesial movement through the incorporation of a Nance button. The IPC extends through tubes to guide the maxillary first molars during distalization. Activation takes place by compressing the NiTi open coil springs against the molar tubes. IPC SAGITTAL In addition to molar distalizing force, this appliance applies pressure to the anterior teeth to move them in a labial direction. Activation occurs as the IPC sliding lock compresses the NiTi open coil spring against the molar tube. Click here for photo. IPC 6x6 UNILATERAL SPACE REGAINER Effective for opening space where premature loss of a permanent or deciduous tooth has occurred, while maintaining arch length. Space is regained by compressing the labial and lingual NiTi open coil springs against the molar tubes. Distal movement of the posterior segment as well as mesial movement of the anterior segment is achieved. Click here for photo. IPC E-ARCH (ARNOLD) EXPANDER Ideal for transverse expansion of maxillary or mandibular arches
where patient compliance is a concern. A tube-like framework is located
on half of the arch which is connected to the IPC on the opposing
side. Activation occurs by sliding the collar anteriorly along the
IPC, compressing the NiTi open coil spring against the tube. Click here for
