Connecticut Intrusion Archwires
CONNECTICUT INTRUSION ARCHWIRES (CIA)
Developed in consultation with Dr. Ravindra Nanda, this archwire is a great tool for providing absolute intrusion
of anterior teeth, molar tip-back, incisor flaring, leveling of anterior occlusal cants, and more! Our CIA Archwire is
available in either Nitanium or nickel-free CNA, in both maxillary and mandibular forms. The force may be adjusted
by increasing or decreasing the bend at the posterior leg of the arch.
The CIA Archwire offers the following benefits:
• Use the long (upper/lower) archwires for non-extraction and/or long arches
• Use the short (upper/lower) archwire for extraction and/or shorter arches
Nitanium version of the CIA Archwire

CNA Beta Nickel-free version of the CIA Archwire
