Forestadent BioLingual® Round Archwires are nickel-titanium wires designed specifically for lingual treatment. Being thermo-active, they develop their full force level only at body temperature (from approximately 32 °C), which also makes ligating far easier. The mushroom arch form was determined by digitally recording more than 200 jaws.
Key Features
Thermo-active from approximately 32 °C — easier ligation, full force in the mouth
Mushroom arch form derived from over 200 digitally recorded jaws
Very elastic — transfers only low forces to the teeth
Unique smooth surface for very low friction
Five mushroom shapes to match different arch forms

Why Choose BioLingual® Round Archwires?
Because the wire is soft at room temperature and only activates in the mouth, ligating it into lingual brackets is manageable — the hardest part of lingual mechanics.
