Clinical Applications

Midline Correction
Midline correction simplified. Install Trillium Hooks on the upper and lower archwires to initiate effective midline correction.

An efficient alternative to inter-arch elastics applied directly to integral bracket hooks which often result in the creation of undesired spaces. Spaces which will later need to be closed extending treatment.


Midline Correction
Trillium Hooks are placed distal to the upper left central and distal to lower right lateral. Elastic traction is applied to correct the midline discrepancy.

Application of the traction forces to the archwire permits force application to be applied to the entire arch, and eliminates the potential for undesired spaces opening if traction forces were applied to individual teeth.
