The Morelli Copper NiTi Universal Form Archwires Round are thermally active archwires developed for the self-ligating appliance system. The addition of 6% copper to the nickel titanium alloy enhances its thermal properties, which translates into optimum force delivery and efficient tooth movement. The round cross-section addresses the initial alignment and leveling phase. Upper and lower arches are supplied as separate options.
Key Features
6% copper in the NiTi alloy — sets the activation temperature at 35 °C (95 °F): the wire stays malleable below it for easier insertion and expresses its programmed force once it reaches mouth temperature
Optimum force delivery — thermally active response instead of a fixed mechanical load
Developed for self-ligating systems — low-friction sliding mechanics in the alignment phase
Round cross-section — indicated for initial alignment, rotation correction and leveling
Shape memory and high deformation resistance — the arch form is recovered after intraoral insertion
Separate upper and lower arches — anatomy-specific selection at the point of order

Why choose Morelli Copper NiTi round archwires?
Copper-enhanced nickel titanium responds to the oral environment rather than to insertion strain, delivering optimum forces with unrivaled efficiency of tooth movement in the alignment phase.
