As the need for faster, more efficient treatment of non-compliant patients increases, orthodontic technology and materials has had to grow to meet that need. Over the years, new orthodontic appliances have been developed that have been based on fundamentally sound principles yet have lacked the necessary technological advancement to make them truly unique, until now.

The MemRx Series of appliances are Fixed Orthodontic appliances designed to expand arches and help align teeth. They are unique in that they employ an adjustable spring loaded Memory Expansion Screw and an Inman Power Component. The flexible designs of the MemRx appliances will enable the doctor to expand the arches, distalize molars and bicuspids or move incisors anteriorly. In some cases, by using the Inman Power Component, these movements can be combined into one appliance, eliminating the need for multiple appliances. The all-new MemRx appliances are unique in a number of ways. There are many advantages to using the MemRx System over currently available appliances.

 
Consider just a few of the MemRx’s key advantages:

• Memory Expansion Screws. Using the latest in Nickel Titanium Spring Technology, the doctor can now place multiple adjustments into a MemRx appliance at the initial seating appointment. Faster and more efficient treatment time with fewer patient visits. 8 millimeter and 10 millimeter sizes are available.

• Revolutionary Inman Power Component. Unlike the uncontrollable pre loaded appliances currently available, the I.P.C. gives the doctor complete control of spring pressure while advancing anterior teeth or distalizing posteriors. It comes with a unique adjustment tool for easy engagement of the I.P.C. sliding collar and compression of NiTi coil springs.

• Nickel Titanium Coil Springs. Consistent “unloading forces” means predictability of movement and greater patient comfort. This aids the doctor in opening and closing spaces with optimum efficiency and control. Usually between 5-12 millimeters in length, varying according to application.
