The arch wires on your upper or lower braces are crucial to the success of your orthodontic treatment. Working together with the carefully placed brackets on your teeth, among other things, these wires help to shift your teeth in the desired directions.

Some Arch Wires Are Designed to Be Bent

Orthodontists actually bend arch wires to facilitate certain types of movement, such as rotation or a certain amount of horizontal or vertical movement. Since arch wires are made of materials that naturally return to their former shape if bent, your dentist will purposely bend the wire in the places where he wants your teeth to move a certain way.

In the early stages of treatment, the wire is thinner and more flexible. Later, however, arch wires are progressively replaced with thicker and stronger wires. The thinner the wire, the easier it is to bend and the more subtle the force on your teeth. The thicker the wire, the stronger the force on your teeth. Only your dentist should be bending your arch wires.
