Over twenty years ago, 3M Unitek pioneered the use of nickel titanium into orthodontists' wire progression plans, creating what would be one of the top ten innovations in orthodontic treatment. Today, we offer three variations of Nitinol Archwire: Nitinol Classic, Nitinol Heat-Activated, and Nitinol Super-Elastic.

Unitek™ Nitinol Heat-Activated Archwire

Unitek Nitinol Heat-Activated archwire is thermally activated super-elastic archwire. It is the easiest of Nitinol wires to engage and it delivers light continuous forces that effectively move teeth.
