Intended purpose

MIS Orthodontic Anchor Screws are intended to provide fixed anchorage for attachment of orthodontic appliances intended to facilitate the orthodontic movement of teeth, construction or restoration of the movement function as well as masticatory apparatus, fixing orthodontic structures in the treatment of orthodontic malformation of the teeth, the jaw and masticatory apparatus, and treatment of fractures caused by outer source on the human body. They are used temporarily and are intended to be removed after orthodontic treatment has been completed. The upper head of the screw has a hole through which a wire can pass to fix the mandible and maxilla in the orthodontic procedure. The screw head is specially designed to assist the use of orthodontic appliances. The orthodontic dual top screw with a cross slot, enables linking orthodontic devices such as ligatures and elastics, as well as the incorporation of an orthodontic arch wire up. This is a single-use device.
