ISO9001 / CE Certified 70 years of improving self-image and orthodontic health www.rmortho.com

RMORMO is much more than a business andmodel of excellence among Colorado corpo-rations. The company is the oldest privatelyheld orthodontic firm in the United States, andis a Denver institution whose company historyis inextricably linked with the history of Denverand orthodontics itself.

Institution and DeterminationBefore the advent of chrome alloy (stainlesssteel) and prior to the founding of RMO, ortho-dontists had to be skilled craftsmen as well asdoctors. In fact, much of their time was spentdevising, constructing, and maintaining theirown oral appliances. Because those appli-ances were typically fabricated from goldalloy, which tended to loosen in a short periodof time, a large part of an orthodontist’s workwas dedicated to repairing and adjusting theappliances after they had been put into use.

The orthodontist’s job demanded mechanicalskill, diligence, and even artistry. And yet, forall of the effort involved, the occupation wasoften less than rewarding. Even the bestorthodontic appliances of the day were woe-fully limited in their effectiveness.

All that changed with the development of ver-satile stainless steel alloys, coupled with theingenuity and foresight of RMO’s founder, Dr.Archie Brusse, a pioneer Denver orthodontist.With a small but capable staff, and with helpfrom an executive at the American Steel andWire Company, RMO set about developing thefirst set of prefabricated orthodontic applianceoptions. After much clinical research andexperimentation, the first system of optionswas unveiled in 1933 at the annual meeting ofthe American Association of Orthodontists.Reception was negative. Most recognizedleaders of that day said it wouldn’t work.

The Rocky Mountain Orthodontics (RMO) effortbegan around 1930. Since then, the companyhas made dramatic advances in the scienceof orthodontics, establishing itself as one of theleaders of a rapidly evolving field – a field thatdown through the decades has made people’slives better. Since its formal incorporation in1935 as Rocky Mountain Metal Products, RMOhas been known as a company of energy andideas – traits that remain at the core of thecompany’s philosophy today.

1930’s ads that ran in the (Mosby) InernationalJournal of Othodontia and Dentristry for Children.

In time, the impact of these prefabricated devices on theworld of orthodontics was dramatic. Simply put, theychanged the face of dentistry. The wide variety of appli-ance shapes and sizes supplied by RMO enabled ortho-dontists to treat a diverse array of patients more effectively.

"What was developed was a way of putting things togetherthat provided more effective and creative options for doc-tors," says Martin Brusse, RMO Chairman and ChiefExecutive Officer, and son of the company’s founder. "Theorthodontist could employ a greater variety of differenttechniques through more individualized diagnosis andtreatment. Patients would benefit."

These developments coincided with a period of significantprogress in the science of bone biology and tooth move-ment, which was particularly beneficial to both RMO andthe field of orthodontics overall. New studies were reveal-ing the long-term ineffectiveness of oral appliances thatexceeded certain thresholds of pressure in moving teeth and resetting bites.Thus, a new mantra in orthodontics – "delicacy andstrength" – was born. These two qualities perfectly charac-terized light, clean, versatile RMO appliance options.

Not only did Archie Brusse and his small staff turn a fledg-ling depression-time start-up business into a multimillion-dollar industry bellwether, but they also helped attract den-tists to the practice of orthodontics by vastly improving thequality and diversity of tools available to them. By exten-sion, RMO has made invaluable contributions that haveimproved the oral health and self-image of countless satis-fied patients.

Setting the StandardToday, RMO maintains its role as an innovator and vision-ary, pushing the practice of orthodontics to new frontierswhile continuing to provide a benchmark of quality forother companies to follow. RMO’s catalogue now showshow 7,000 different basic products and services can betranslated into a universe of treatment options for orthodon-tists all over the world.

Increasingly, RMO has emphasized the development ofcomputer-aided diagnostic and treatment planning tools.

These information innovations have provided powerful ana-lytic information that has helped doctors and their staffsdeal with each patient’s individual growth and develop-ment. This results in fewer surprises and fewer after-ortho-dontics failures.

RMO’s health care innovations have not gone unnoticed.RMO was awarded the prestigious E Award for excellencein educational marketing by two U.S. presidents, and thecompany has received the Colorado Governor’s Award forconsistent excellence in exporting.

These honors reflect RMO’s status as a truly international company, with more than half of its revenue coming fromoutside the United States. RMO today maintains sub-sidiaries based in Strasbourg and Sydney, along with a 30-year-old joint venture relationship with the J. MoritaCompany in Japan. Sixty independent dental dealers inother countries round out a very impressive RMO globalmarketing effort.

Denver can be proud of the loyalty and efforts of theemployees and the local commercial suppliers who havehelped RMO succeed and advance during the company’shistory. RMO is, by all measures, an international standardbearer poised to build upon its legacy of excellence fordecades to come.

direction for the future

www.rmortho.com

It seems that there are roughly nine types oforthodontic treatment:…(1) pediatric pre-vention…(2) pediatric interception 1stphase…(3) comprehensive late mixed den-tition treatment…(4) comprehensiveteenage and adult orthodontics…(5) adultminor tooth movement orthodontics…(6)reconstructive dentistry orthodontics…(7)TMJ orthodontics…(8) surgical orthodon-tics…(9) breathing/sleep problem relatedorthodontics.

RMO serves, with various degrees of intensi-ty, all aspects of orthodontics. We havebeen active in early treatment since 1957when we first began to work with Dr. Ricketts’Bioprogressive® vision. During the past 10years we have invested considerably in 1stphase approaches. When possible, themajority of people favor early interceptionover more complex measures in later years.

RMO realizes that all patients differ and thatall orthodontic dentists vary in education,experience, treatment approach, appli-ance performance, and final finishingresults. Since it is not possible to satisfy allneeds of every doctor, RMO is committedto developing practical Synergistic options.

“Synergy develops when two or more inter-active parts of a system produce an effectof which the parts are incapable of produc-ing." Said another way, "The Power of theinteractions of the whole become fargreater than the sum of the parts.”

RMO’s attention to synergies provides prac-tices with a wide selection of dependabletreatment options.

Evidence-Based TreatmentThe formal "Evidence-Based Treatment" con-cept began in the UK about 1990. It proba-bly surfaced because the UK health caresystem needed formal protocols to encour-age medical and dental people to continu-ally upgrade their practices in accordancewith the best available scientific advance-ments in treatment medicines and proce-dures. The "Evidence-Based" disciplinehelps patients, doctors and health business-es. We are involved with our own support-ing ISO-related program.

As we see it, there are four levels of evi-dence inquiry and documentation. Eachinvites suggestions for possible continuousimprovement. RMO”s evidence basedprocesses dramatically affects our productdevelopment and product/ service instructions.

Level 1: Ideas/concepts/assumptions/theories. Convergences…conflicts…otherimplications.

“Never Believe that a few caring peoplecan’t change the world. Indeed, that’s allwho ever have.” Margaret Mead

Level 2: Anecdotal evidence that seems to meet expectations for benefiting patients, companies, doctors, and staff.

Level 3: Participative user groups and cus-tomer recorded documentation.

Level 4: University verification studies.

These evidence-based disciplines helpassure customer satisfaction.

of the wholebecome fargreater than

the sum of theparts.”

Kussick™ Rapidly Adjusted Headgear SystemThe Kussick™ Rapidly Adjusted Headgear System consists of the Kussick™ Head Gear andthe Kussick™ Facebows. It carries the anterior alveolus posteriorly as a unit. It reducesoverjet, maxillary expansion, and arch length for Class II Div 1 cases with deep or anterioropen bites. The result is a flattening of the labial protrusive bone. The “internal labialarch” of transseptal collagen fibers can be used to move areas containing teeth andbone. The anterior roots and crowns are up-righted and retracted. The premaxillarybone is remodeled distally but without impacting second molars. The Kussick™ RapidlyAdjusted Headgear System eliminates overjet while expanding the entire maxillary archwith stability (up to 10mm in the 1st molar and 5mm in the cuspid region) without usingrapid or cumbersome palatal exspansion appliances (RPE).

The Kussick™ HeadGear’s unique force indicator is calibrated with pre-set precision, colorcoded adjustments to allow slow to rapid buildup of forces.

Without changing your chosen technique, RMO® 3D® 1stPhase Fixed/Removable® Modular Orthodontics (Wilson®)can help your practice target treatment planning deci-sions to reduce treatment time and cost, and to improvepatient comfort and cooperation. This will result in build-upof your practice.

All principles have been proven through successful usagefor many decades. What is new and unique is the way theprinciples were engineered by Dr. William Wilson and Dr.Robert Wilson into an easy-to-use plug-in, plug-out systemof 12 modular options. Over 100 different 1st Phase treat-ment movements can be achieved with minimum appli-ances and maximum patient comfort and satisfaction.

The 3D® Lingual Arch System (Wilson®) is the result of fourdecades of lingual arch use, analysis and research,change and experimentation. All types of non bracket lin-gual appliances and molar band/tube fixations were eval-uated. Different orthodontic mechanical needs and possi-bilities were considered. The originators, Dr. William Wilsonand Dr. Robert Wilson were also concerned with harmo-nious lingual arch usage with various types of fixed andremovable techniques.

In perspective, the 3D® Fixed/Removable® System (Wilson®)should be considered as a comprehensive appliance sup-plementing system; it is a “tool box” of options. The numer-ous 3D® options help you add to the effectivity of theappliances you have chosen to deal with your diagnosisand treatment plan. Also, it is important to note that each3D® module is a subsystem by itself. That is, each has spe-cific areas for use and each has numerous supplementingoptions.

While 3D® Lingual Arche can be cut in half and used withacrylic to make Nance Holding Appliance for maxillaryarches, this 3D® Lingual Arche is designed primarily formandibular arches. The same is true for the 3D® Quad-Action Mandibular Appliance.

3D® lingual appliances for the various maxillary arch needsare: the 3D® Palatal Appliance, 3D® Multi-Action PalatalAppliance and the 3D® Quad Helix.

Buccal TubesSince Dr. Wilson recommends the use of buccal tubes with gingivally placed .045"head gear tubes, other buccal tubes of various fixed appliances with occlusally placedheadgear tubes can be successfully used with 3D® Maxillary Bimetric Distalizing Archprocedures.

When using 3D® Maxillary Bimetric Distalizing Arches with .045" or .051" occlusallyplaced buccal tubes, it is necessary to adjust the distal buccal section of the arch. Astep up bend is made anterior to the Omega Stop assembly. This enables the distalizingelements to function in the occlusally placed tube while the anterior elements of thearch are properly aligned with anterior brackets.

RMO now has buccal tubes and tube variations for all popular techniques. If your prac-tice is interested in incorporating selected 3D® 1st Phase Fixed/Removable® (Wilson®)options into your treatment regimens, it is easily done.

firstphaseORTHOPEDIC FACE MASK (DELAIRE)

Mandibular prognathism exists in many children, and is often associated withmaxillary insufficiencies.

Maxillary insufficiencies are conditions which embody maxillary brachygnathia,retrognathia and micrognathia; the causes of these disorders may be constitu-tional. However, according to Drs. Delaire and Verdon of France, most often thedisorders (which are at the origin of a maxillary deficiency) are functional.

The Delaire Orthopedic Mask is an excellent appliance for intercepting and cor-recting diagnostically selected maxillary deficiencies of young patients. “Young”typically means from 3 1/2 to 4 years old or from the time when a double arch(lingual and labial) with bands can be used.

Orthopedic Face Mask (Delaire) Stainless Steel• Excellent method for intercepting Class III cases caused by maxillary insuffi-

ciencies. Can modify orientation of the maxilla, in relation to the upper cra-nial implantation.

• Can improve the growth of the anterior part of the maxilla.

• Can cause mesial movement of the upper dento-alveolar arch, in relation tothe maxillary base.

• Can cause distal movement of lower dento-alveolar arch, in relation tomandibular base.

• Heavy forces applied throughout treatment by elastics attached to anchoragepoints.

• Made of .078" (1.98mm) wire and acrylic, set screws held in metal housing inacrylic parts. Vertical height adjustable to 13/16" (2cm).

• Elastics and wrench included.

Comfort, freedom of movement, safety and, ofcourse, effectiveness were the principles adopted during development.

Applied ForceSeven force levels can be precisely applied by the clinician: 400, 450, 500, 550,600, 650, 700gm. The strap is marked with seven colors which correspond to theapplied forces. Because a nickel-titanium spring is used to develop the force, it ismaintained at the level set by the clinician until he/she changes it.

ComfortThe flexible, transparent Spring-Gear™ tube adapts to fit every neck size. The soft,blue neck cushion on the interior is washable and can be replaced by a new one ifrequired.

SafetyA simple, but effective, system ensures that the snap-way attachments detach fromthe face bow, if excessive force is applied. Ingenious design and choice of materialguarantees that the releasing force remains constant throughout treatment.

Equal forcesA virtually friction-free Nickel-Titanium spring ensures that the forces exerted on thedentition scarcely change regardless of the direction in which the patient moveshis/her head.

A study by the Netherlands Organization for Applied Scientific Research showed theforces on the 1st molars did not change when the head moved with patients wear-ing Spring-Gear™ cervical headgear. This is a problem with conventional headgearin that the forces on the 1st molars change with each movement of the head. This isbecause the headgear does not slide around the neck like it does with Spring-Gear™.

Fitting the Spring-Gear™ to the individual patient is very simple. Sliding the snap-wayattachments along the strap enables the Nickel-Titanium to be extended to thepoint where ideal strength is reached.

Safety Headgear System reduces the potential hazard of slingshot rebounds ofheadgear. If the facebow is pulled with excessive force, clips holding the springrelease modules disconnect automatically and disengage the facebow.Reassembly after release is easy for the patient.

The system is available with cervical traction pads and high-pull head straps, andbilateraltwo-part safety release modules. Steel coil springs are incorporated in modules toprovideconstant traction force. When contracted, springs are calibrated to produce medi-um and heavy forces. Facebow attachment straps are color-coded to easily identi-fy force levels. Neckpads and head straps are in denim fabric.

RMO® DRIVE TUBEintraoralextraoral

The new RMO® Drive Tube offers simple, effective distalization while full arch brackettreatment is carried out. With just a simple screw activation, applied by either doctoror patient, the treatment is efficient, concise and quick. Proven with over three yearsof extensive clinical use, the RMO® Drive Tube has been found to be effective forunilateral or bilateral, maxillary and mandibular distalization. Furthermore, chair timeis kept to a minimum as the tube is easily ligated to any popular archwire or brack-eting system using .018 or .022 slot size. Brackets remain in place as you distallydrive those once difficult to move molars, with or without second molar extractions.

The Ultimate in MouthGuard ProtectionRMO®’s MyTGuard™ is made of a special material that exactly molds to yourpatient’s individual teeth including braces. Even as teeth move during orthodontictreatment, the MyTGuard™ can be refitted to accommodate change.

MyTGuard™ is a dental device designed to absorb and dissipate severe blows to themouth area. The research and testing utilized in its development are far superior toindustry standards.

If a blow to the face occurs, MyTGuard™ allows severe impact forces to be immedi-ately dampened and directed away from teeth and delicate facial bones, includ-ing the TMJ. This dampening and redirecting of the impact forces help to preventconcussion-causing vibrations from penetrating the nasal cavity, brain and head.MyTGuard™ also serves to reduce trauma to the lips, tongue, cheeks and gum tis-sue.

Further enhancing its protective capabilities is the fact that it is the only mouthguardcapable of taking a full upper and lower dental impression. No other mouthguardcomes close to protecting your patient as well as the MyTGuard™ mouthguard.

Permanent marking systemwith Palmer notation.

Orthodontic bands have been basic to theprogress of orthodontics since the begin-ning of this science. Techniques havechanged and materials have improved,from nickel-silver clamp bands with project-ing nut and bolt, to precious metals, toswagged rings and, finally, to chrome alloypreformed orthodontic bands developedfirst by Rocky Mountain® Orthodontics(RMO®). While prefabrication has beentried before, the application of chromealloy made it possible to provide greateredge strength, greater fitting qualities andhealthier appearing appliances. The break-through in effective, time-saving orthodon-tic bands stemmed from original RMO®

engineering and clinical testing and madeit possible to cut operating time by morethan 75%.

RMO®’s TruForm bands offer the following:

• Proper Temper – RMO® TruForm bands are of a desirable and popular temper for quick, accurate adaptation to the anatomy of the tooth.

• Proper Contour – The shape of TruForm bands is established by clinical use. The occlusal edge is slightly rolled to enhancefitting and prevent cement ridge. They areproperly festooned to conform accuratelyto the tooth anatomy.

• Proper Sizes – RMO® TruForm bands are furnished in 36 sizes.

• Proper Identification – RMO® TruFormmolar bands are permanently markedusing the Electro Scribe® process which ispermanent, dark and easy to see.

• Proper Finish – All RMO® TruForm bandshave a lustre finish outside and a velvet fin-ish inside.

• Proper Width – All RMO® TruForm molarbands meet any technique requirement.

• RMO® TruForm Bands with unmatchedquality are anatomically shaped for func-tional fit and made from the true RMO®

temper.

• RMO® TruForm molar bands are offeredin both universal and left/right specificversions for maxillary and mandibularmolars in all standard size ranges as well aspedo. For proper fitting, RMO® highly rec-ommends the presence of a lingualattachment for optimal fitting.

• No Preweld Charge – RMO® offers to preweld the buccal and lingual attach-ment to any of RMO®’s bands as long asthe attachments conform within the stan-dard preweld position guide. Customassemblies which include any RMO®

attachment/bands prewelded to otherthan the standard preweld position guideare available; please allow extra time.

GINGIVALLY OFFSET BICUSPID BRACKETS

Early treatment clinicians using fixed appli-ance systems reported difficulty in bondingthe partially erupted 1st and 2nd bicuspidsusing conventional brackets. This situation cancause soft tissue impingement. (Please seeillustrations below.)

In 1992 RMO® introduced its first gingivally off-set upper bicuspid bracket in the BenchBioprogressive® system to help avoid soft tis-sue impingement. Early bracket placementhelps expedite the bicuspid’s full eruption.

The gingivally offset bracket option has provenvery successful and has been carried over toboth upper and lower bicuspids in many ofRMO®’s Synergy® series. The clinician is able tobond the bicuspids earlier. In doing so, the

tendency for the bicuspid brackets to end uptoo far occlusally is eliminated. The gingivallyoffset bracket (relative to the bonding base)also reduces interference and measurablydecreases bond failure.

Ceramic brackets with the functionality of metal bracketsThese new improved brackets give yourpatients the look they want and give you thefunctionality you need. LUXI II™ gives youreduced friction for enhanced slidingmechanics and reduced treatment time,easy debonding, the aesthetics of ceramics,and the strength of metal all in one bracket.

Reduced FrictionLUXI II™ is a reduced-friction ceramic bracketcontaining a biocompatible gold arch slotsliding guide. This patent pending featureenhances sliding mechanics by reducingfriction as compared to conventional ceram-ics.

Mechanical Features• The LUXI II™ ceramic bracket is producedfrom extruded alumina. It is not a machinedbracket so that it will not fail prematurelyfrom cracking due to internal stress.

• LUXI II™ contains an 18-karat (75%) goldinsert, which is similar in composition to high-

quality gold crown and bridge alloys.

• Studies show that a greater torque can beapplied to a bracket with a gold insert beforethe bracket breaks, or a full-size wireengaged in the bracket twists, than for abracket with a stainless steel insert or an all-ceramic bracket.

Bonding / DebondingEasy bonding and debonding. LUXI II™’sbase has a new improved patented dovetaildesign that enhances bond strength whileallowing it to debond easily. Each basematches various tooth shapes. This gives theadhesive a large surface area – free of airpockets, so a sturdy, mechanical bond canform. This winning combination gives theability to use all chemical and light curebonding systems.

Patient AcceptanceThe unmatched combination of aestheticswith gold strength. The translucence ofceramic mirrors the natural look of enamel.This will be your patient’s first choice.

signature III™

NEW CERAMIC COLLECTION

Self-confidence for you and yourpatientsThe new redesigned Signature III™ ceramicbrackets preform as good as they look,almost invisible.

Patented arch slot and reducedfrictionSignature III™’s arch slots have a patent forstrength and consistency. Ceramic bracketsare inclined to fracture along the inside -right where the corners of the arch wire meetthe side of the bracket. Signature III™ elimi-nates these stress points by adding a round-ed protrusion to the center of each slot, whilemaintaining a continuous curve throughoutthe arch slot floor. This innovation drasticallyreduces bracket fracture, and reduces fric-tion by less contact with the wire.

New dovetail baseEasy bonding and debonding. SignatureIII™’s base has a new improved patenteddovetail design that enhances bond strengthwhile allowing it to debond easily. Eachbase matches various tooth shapes. Thisgives the adhesive a large surface area -free of air pockets, so a sturdy, mechanicalbond can form. This winning combinationgives the ability to use all chemical and lightcure bonding systems.

Low-stress, low-friction, slot floorSignature III™’s patented low-stress, low-fric-tion slot floor works equally well with round,rectangular and square arch wires. No mat-ter which arch wire you use, the Signature III™bracket properly places the center of forcewhich results in maximum control and mini-mum friction.

DIRECT BONDING BASES

RMO® offers a large variety of choices forbonding brackets or tubes on a base in alltechniques. The number of offerings of brack-ets or tubes on anatomically shaped bases issignificantly increased. Brackets and tubesare brazed to a base using gold solder or sil-ver solder. These bases are RMO®’s Contur-Lok™. This section describes the availability ofbrackets and tubes on bases in the columnlabel “On Bases.”

Contur-Lok™ bases come in multiple sizes,including anatomical sizes with developmen-tal grooves. The bonding base is a laminateof stainless steel foil to an 80 x 80 mesh. Bothmesial-distal and occlusal-gingival contouringof the base assure maximum contact area forbonding. The mesh is oriented at 45˚, whichenhances its locking action.

• Contur-Lok™ bases provide optimum cover-age of the tooth over the entire “footprint” ofthe bracket or tube.

• Contur-Lok™ bases have compound curva-ture to fit mesial-distal and occlusal-gingivalmorphology of the tooth surface.

• Contur-Lok™ bases cover the tooth areaunder bracket wings, which can be food-traps,and protect them from plaque build-up.

• Contur-Lok™ provides a 45˚ orientation of themesh resulting in more mesh openings on thebase and increased tooth retention. Greatermechanical retention of adhesive to the baseoccurs due to the larger number of mesh openings.

• Contur-Lok™ is brazed to brackets or tubeswhich maintains the mesh intact, unlike weld-ing which destroys a portion of the mesh.

• Contur-Lok™ bases have a center indicatormark for fast, accurate bracket or tube positioning.

The Synergy® bracket design is the most versa-tile, active bracket ever. It brings you moretreatment control options than conventionaledgewise brackets. It reduces friction dramati-cally and total treatment duration. All of thiscomes together in a very low profile patentedsynergy design.

• Synergy®’s new rounded arch slot wallsreduce binding and friction, giving a gentler,more continuous force. Treatment time isfaster and is comfortable to the patient.

• Synergy®’s new rounded arch slot floorreduces friction since the arch will contact thefloor at only two points.

• Synergy®’s new round arch slot walls andfloors allow tangential contact of the archwire, thus avoiding sharp binding as the archwire enters or exits through slot. It also increas-es the effective inter-bracket distance.

• The Synergy® bracket design offers ligation options never available before. (Available through RMO® only.)

• Minimum friction ligation

• Conventional ligation

• Maximum rotation ligation

• Minimal rotaton ligation

Synergy® is manufactured in the MetalInjection Molding process (MIM). The strongest,smoothest, most rounded appliances avail-able. Several university research studies haveshown the Synergy® bracket reduces frictiondramatically.

Available in the most popular techniques:

RMO®’s newest bracket which incorporates thefriction reducing features of Synergy® but in theMini-Taurus® twin design. Additionally, includes avertical slot for auxiliary treatment applicationswhile maintaining a low profile.

After talking to our customers about their require-ments in bracket design we have developed anincredible new bracket. The Synergy® brackethas become the most popular selling RMO®

bracket. Many of our customers asked for thefeatures of Synergy® in a twin bracket. We lis-tened to our customers and developed the newVersaT™.

Bracket prescriptions are generic and do notaccommodate the individualized treatmentrequirements of each patient. VersaT™, byusing the vertical slot, allows the clinician toadjust the tip, torque, and rotation and managespace to fit the individualized treatment plan foreach patient.

VersaT™ has redesigned rounded arch slot walls,rounded arch slot floors and vertical slots.

Rounded arch slot walls increase arch wireeffectiveness dramatically by eliminating bind-ing and friction on arch wires; now they are freeto perform at their optimum.

The gently curving slot walls let the arch wireenter and exit the slot without binding or induc-ing unnecessary arch wire stress. Because thearch wire is not rigidly captured, as is the casewith conventional edgewise brackets, a gentlerand more continuous treatment force is gener-ated. Leveling at the beginning of treatment isaccomplished faster.

Torque, tip and rotational forces are all deliv-ered more gently due to the fact that the archwire touches the VersaT™ bracket at the apex ofthe rounded walls only. The line contactbetween bracket and arch wire effectivelyincreases inter-bracket distance for a moreactive, non-binding force.

Your patients will like the rounded arch slot fea-ture because it makes arch wire insertion easierand reduces discomfort between appointments.

RMO® Mini-Taurus®, is a minimum bracket withmaximum advantages.

Mini-Taurus® offers enhanced bracket qualitywith smooth, rounded contours and roundedhooks. These features assure patient comfort,hygiene and structural strength.

The incisal-gingival bracket dimension hasbeen dramatically reduced. The twin brackettie wings are of sufficient size to allow easy lig-ating of single wing or across both wings.Strength in design prevents collapse or break-age from mastication. Bracket design mini-mizes interference between upper and lowerarches. The mesial-distal width permits preciserotation and tipping control.

Foil mesh bases match each bracket andtooth individually. This allows for the smallestbase possible while maintaining sufficient areafor bonding. A new center scribe featureassists proper alignment during bonding.Torque is provided in the base.

An easy-to-use permanent identification sys-tem is molded into each bracket.

Available in the most popular techniques:

1. RMO® Version Roth Preadjusted StraightWire System

2. RMO® Version of the Andrews Preadjusted Straight Wire System

3. Bench Bioprogressive® Preadjusted System

4. RMO® Version of Alexander Vari-SimplexSystem

THE INTEGRAL BRACKET APPLIANCE SYSTEM

RMO® is introducing a new low profile bracketappliance system called Integra™. This small,rhomboid designed bracket is totally integrat-ed. The complete bracket, including the base,is molded as one unit and is manufacturedusing metal injection molding (MIM). RMO®

pioneered the MIM manufacturing process inorthodontics and is the leader in the field.

The result of molding the bracket as one unitresults in a stronger integral appliance. Thebuilt-in wings, hooks and base result in preci-sion orthodontic control. The intregral ballhooks on cuspids and bicuspids allow for simul-taneous use of auxiliaries.

The increased, molded-pattern bonding sur-face area assures an excellent bond. The

molded base is designed to match precisely tothe curvature of the tooth morphology for max-imum contact and strong, consistent bonding.The vertical scribe line aligns precisely with thecrown long axis, simplifying accurate bracketplacement.

The wing design provides for easy ligation,which is unique in a low profile bracket.Integra™ has a permanent marking systemmolded into each bracket for easy identifica-tion.

The Integra™ bracket delivers an unbeatablecombination of superior function, patient com-fort and superb bonding in an integral appli-ance system. Quality and consistent finishingare the results.

GRACE® DESIGNPREADJUSTED LOW PROFILE EDGEWISE SYSTEM

The Grace® System is one of many benefits thatdeveloped from a wonderful 35-year relation-ship with the prestigious Japanese J. MoritaCompany, a leader in Japan and throughoutthe world. Thirty years ago, the Morita/RMO®

joint venture company, called the RockyMountain Morita Company (RMMC), was found-ed when the J. Morita Company becameRMO®’s exclusive dealer in Japan.

The friendship and the association withJapanese universities and orthodontic leadershave brought many ideas to our attention.RMO® recognized the Grace® System as animportant Bioprogressive® oriented advance-ment. RMO® focused its MIM (Metal InjectionMolding) technology on producing exactlywhat was required for this system, and we areproud of our part in this joint high technologyinternational effort.

This bracket/tube system is designed for prac-tices thatdesire maxi-mum precisemechanicalcontrolthroughouttreatment.

• The innov-ative char-acteristicof the Grace®

System bracketis the incorporateddesign for easy cut-ting of the tying wire.When you ligatethe arch wire inthe bracket firm-ly in the con-ventional manner,

enough space is secured automatically,which allows the tip of the ligature cutter tobe inserted in between the bracket wingsand the tying wires.

This innovative structure is incorporated inthe occlusal wings of the upper and the gin-gival wings of the lower brackets, whichresults in easy tying wire removal and lessenspatient discomfort.

• Another unique design feature of the Grace®

System tube is the incorporated “slant” at thedistal end, which automatically directs thecinched back wire to the tooth side, avoidingpossible damage to the buccal mucosa bythe arch wire.

The utility archwires can be used in first molartubes; both upper and lower are convertibletype.

• The Grace® System is equipped with out-standing structures for the utmost comfort ofthe patient and maximal efficiency of theoperator, with unique designs of the smallest

available size, low-profile, and roundshape produced by the RMO®’s high

technology MIM method.

Additionally, the brack-et wings are double

tapered, whichfurther inhibitsthe possibility offood trappingand plaque

attachment, andenhances easy

brushingaccess.

RMO® offers the very best combination—alaminated stainless steel foil-mesh base joinedto its family of precision milled, burr-freebrackets. The result: the ultimate direct bond-ing bracket system, which gives you greatercontrol of treatment and less bonding failure.

The machine milled brackets are milled frombars of stainless steel for total precision, espe-cially arch slot precision; ease of ligation byproviding a larger ligating area than conven-tional wing designs with no increase in overallsize or impairment of the strength of thebracket; smooth edges which provide patient

comfort; and ink colored arch identification(black for upper, red for lower). The bracket isthen brazed with gold alloy (corrosion resistant)to RMO® Contur-Lok® bonding bases.

RMO® offers a wide variety of machine milledbrackets in single, twin wings and in medium,wide and extra wide (mesial and distal) in thefollowing techniques: Standard EdgewiseSystem .018 and .022 arch slots, OriginalStandard Bioprogressive® System (Ricketts®).0185 x .030, Dimension 4® Bioprogressive®

elgiloy®

CHROME COBALT ALLOY

Elgiloy® WireElgiloy® wire is a premium, specially-fabricat-ed wire in four tempers. Each Elgiloy wire typehas separate characteristics. Wire formsmade from Elgiloy® can be heat-treated,depending on the desired application.Elgiloy® wire’s toughness and flexibility areeasily discernible with use.

Elgiloy® wire is superior, as furnished, for form-ing, and in performance time during treat-ment. All tempers have the unique capabilityof beginning as a “soft” easily handled wire.Because Elgiloy® wire can be used as is orheat-treated, it provides flexibility and controlin force applications.

Elgiloy® DevelopmentRMO® was selected to develop Elgiloy fororthodontics because of its leadership indeveloping new materials for the profession.This “wonder metal”, developed by the ElginNational Company as the “Heart That NeverBreaks” in modern precision time pieces, isnot a stainless steel. It is a patented cobalt-base alloy compounded of eight materials(cobalt 40%; chromium 20%; nickel 15%;molybdenum 7%; manganese 2%; beryllium.04%; carbon .15%; iron 15.81%).

Elgiloy® offers orthodontists particular advan-tages: superior physical properties, longerfunctioning as a resilient spring wire withoutdistortion or fatigue, easy soldering withoutannealing, easy heat-treating to increasephysical properties and simple electrolytepolishing.

Maximum properties are not necessarily bestfor all orthodontic purposes. Full spring quali-ties are excellent for small diameter archwires and coil springs, but larger wires of fullspring temper are impossible to handle. It fol-lows that the best qualities for a particularalloy form vary according to the work to bedone to the material and the final usage.Recognizing this, RMO® developed a series ofdifferent types of Elgiloy® wires, each fabricat-ed for specific applications and each identi-fied by a color marking on the end. With awide range of carefully engineered wiretypes, orthodontists can take full advantageof Elgiloy’®s superiority and versatility, whatev-er their techniques.

Elgiloy® Wire Properties• Set Resistance

Retains power longer than stainless steel

• Fatigue ResistanceMore cycles than stainless steel withoutbreakage

• Greater Spring EfficiencyUp to 20% more power than spring steelwithout an increase in dimensions

• Corrosion ResistanceOutperforms chrome stainless steel by 17%

• Non-MagneticNon-magnetic through all temperatureranges

How to Use Elgiloy®

• Blue

Blue Elgiloy® is initially the softest of the tem-pers. It can be welded with low heat, and sol-dered without embrittling. It is recommendedwhen the wire to be used is over .020"(0.508mm) or when the wire requires consid-erable bending, welding or soldering.Excellent for edgewise arches, lingual arches,retainers and removables.

• Yellow

Yellow Elgiloy® is initially ductile and slightlyharder than Blue. Using caution, you canspot-weld and solder to large Yellow Elgiloy®

wires, .021" x .025"; .030"; .036" (0.533mm x0.635mm; 0.762mm; 0.914mm), withoutembrittling them. Some practitioners useYellow as furnished, but it can be heat-treat-ed if greater resiliency or spring performanceis required. After heat-treating, Yellow can beadjusted slightly, but should not be adjustedsharply. It is excellent for flat wire techniques.Yellow Elgiloy® is recommended wheregreater spring qualities are needed thanthose provided by Blue Elgiloy®.

• Green

Green Elgiloy® is initially semi-resilient and willtemper comparable to high spring-temperedsteel wires. It can be shaped easily with thefingers and can be plier-manipulated beforeheat-treating.

• Red

Red Elgiloy® is initially “hard” with exceptional-ly high spring qualities. It is not recommend-ed for heat-treating. Use where adjustmentswill not be required after heat-treating.

Tru-Chrome® DevelopmentWire has been basic to orthodonticssince its beginning. By serving as hold-ing, anchoring and spring elements, theorthodontist is able to stimulate toothmovement predictably and precisely.

In developing specialty wires for modernorthodontics, several considerations areinvolved:

1. Semantic problem of matchingrequirements and terminology oforthodontics with engineering termsand tests.

2. Selecting the best alloys, tempers,sizes, etc.

3. Engineering procedures and qualitycontrols for accuracy and depend-ability.

4. Refinement of time-saving instru-ments, equipment and handlingtechniques to assure best results.

In the selection here, you will find themost complete choice of controlledquality wire for all techniques.

The success of Chrome Alloy StainlessSteel in orthodontics lies in the keencombination of delicacy and strength. Itpossesses, to an unusual degree, thosethree requisites of an orthodontic metal:hardness, elastic limit, and tensilestrength.

Tru-Chrome® Stainless Steel WireTru-Chrome® stainless steel wire is a sta-ble, consistent, predictable perfor-mance wire, offered in four tempers.Quality controls are the tightest of anystainless steel wire in the industry.

• Resilient Arch Wire Temper

Resilient Arch Wire Temper is available inpreformed arch blanks and is used insome special wire forms, depending onthe suitability for the desired usage.Straight lengths are provided for thosewho prefer forming their own arch wires.

• Retainer Wire or No. 2 Temper

Retainer Wire or No. 2 Temper stainlesssteel wire has a softer temper than ArchWire Temper, which enables the opera-tor to more easily form the wire intoretainer appliances. Forming the wirework-hardens it andprovides a working resiliency for retainerappliances.

• Clasp Wire Temper

Clasp Wire is a stainless steel wirebetween the Resilient Arch Wire Temperand the Retainer Wire Temper. It is softenough to be instrument-formed to theclasp configuration and, in forming,gains sufficient hardening from plieringto have a satisfactory spring resiliencyfor clasps.

• Ligature Wire Temper

Ligature Wire is a stainless steel wire of“dead-soft” temper that allows ligatingand tying to be done with minimal work-hardening of the wire.

Superior quality maximizes satisfaction.A top quality instrument offers two unbeatable advan-tages for its user:• Top quality instruments make the daily work more

satisfying. Because they allow for a more preciseand ergonomic work process—which leads to betterwork results day to day over years and years.

• Top quality instruments are the more economicchoice. 1) Top quality instruments enable their usersto achieve the same work result in less time or a bet-ter work result in the same time 2) Top quality instru-ments last longer and therefore minimize invest-ments for replacement and repair.

Adolf Schweickhardt GmbH & Co. has been producingdental instruments for 103 years, which makes themone of the most experienced manufacturers in the world. • We are one of the very few manufacturers producing

its complete line from raw material to final instru-ment only in Germany. German craftsmanship withits legacy of precision produces the best quality inthe world.

• We invest heavily to support craftsmanship with state-of-the-art, high-tech machinery. Our computerizedhigh precision milling machines, for example, areaccurate to 1/100mm.

Inserted PliersEspecially for inserted pliers, fulfilling all of the abovementioned requirements demands great care andexpertise.Certain treatments of hard wires such as cutting andsharp bending of arch wires, specifically stress theworking ends of orthodontic pliers. Therefore, theseworking ends need to be equipped with hard inserts toensure perfect function and prevent them from beingdamaged by the wire. These inserts are applied to theplier via soldering. RMO Schweickhardt pliers are made from a specialalloy and are applied to the plier with a highly sophisti-cated soldering technique.Our insert alloy combines hardness (around 62 HRc)with a high corrosion resistance. Therefore our pliers donot need to be chrome plated. Consequently, exceptfor chrome plated instruments, our pliers can be sub-ject to ultrasonic cleaning and disinfection with appro-priate liquids as well as autoclave sterilization.In addition, our pliers don't have the risk of chromeplate peeling off. That could potentially endanger thepatient's health if it happens during use of the plier inthe patient's mouth. It would also end the lifetime of

the plier because if the chrome starts peeling off, theplier will corrode quickly.Our insert soldering technique was especially devel-oped for these pliers. The inserts are soldered to theplier with great care, which means effort…but thiseffort pays off because the inserts stick safer to thebeaks. No RMO Schweickhardt plier ever loses itsinserts during use, which is not always so for these sortsof pliers.Having mastered the insert technique, three morerequirements have to be fulfilled to produce a topquality plier.Our beaks and inserts are milled on high precisionmachines and additionally get final adjustment byexpert craftsmen with long experience. Because thebest insert can only be as good as the exactness ofits shape.Our locks are produced with great care to ensure asmooth and precise action over the whole workingangle. That's because precision of lock determinesprecision of plier. If the lock is not tight enough, theplier will not allow for precise work because the work-ing ends will not close as precisely as they are sup-posed to. If the lock is too tight, opening and closingwill cause difficulties which in turn makes exact workvery difficult (usually the jam will arise in the first fewmilli-meters of opening).A box lock—the gold standard of locks in terms oflong-term precision—is technically not possible forinserted pliers. But our screw locks ensure a preciseopening/closing procedure over a long time. This isbecause we fasten the screw into the body with a special procedure so that it won't become loose evenafter years of usage.

All edges of our pliers are carefully chamfered toincrease safety of patient and doctor (no pinching orwounding of gums).For less stressing wire treatments such as ligature wires,bands, elastics and light wires, orthodontic pliers donot need inserts. The advantage of these non-insertedpliers is that they can be equipped with box locks. Still,for some procedures, an additional protection of thebeaks is desirable for:• A better durability of beaks (the beaks will hold their

exact form longer).• A safer grip of the wire (the wire won't slip off).Therefore, we protect those pliers with a tungsten car-bide coating and we are the only ones who do it.Apart from the coating of the beaks, our non-insertedpliers are produced with the same great care on beakform, locks and edge chamfering as our inserted pliers.

RepairFor RMO®/ SCHWEICKHARDT Instruments outside the war-ranty, call RMO® customer service or your sales represen-tative with recommendation for repair.RMO® customer service number is 1-800-RMO-ORTHO.

Recommendation for Care and Maintenance ofRMO®/Schweickhardt InstrumentsThese Instruments are designed to provide long and faith-ful service. To protect your investment and ensure the reli-able service for a long time, please follow the recom-mended maintenance and care.All new instruments should be brushed with soap andwater, rinsed, dried and run through the entire sterilizationprocess prior to use.

Disinfecting & CleaningAll instruments should be disinfected and cleaned imme-diately after being used to remove debris, blood and toavoid drying of these contaminants on the surfaces of thepliers.

• Chemical Disinfection, if this method is the choice, wesuggest using a quality Alkaline product (Rust Inhibitor). Thesolution needs to be prepared every day exactly in thesame concentration. Make sure to dip the instrument intothe solution only after complete dissolution of the concen-trated chemical. Scrub the instrument tips with plasticbrush if necessary. Don’t soak the instrument for an extend-ed period of time. The solution’s temperature should notexceed 25˚C (78˚F).• Ultrasonic Cleaning Device. Please use a high qualitynon-aggressive ultrasonic solution with rust inhibitors and PHneutral. Extended cleaning time with acidic chemicals willdestroy your valuable instruments very quickly.• Rinse the instruments with Water (the use of distilled ordeionized water will provide further protection against rustand discoloration) immediately after disinfection andcleaning using methods above dry them carefully with

towel or compressed air to avoid water staining. If thesesteps are not followed properly, the instruments may besubject to corrosion or discoloration in the sterilizer.

SterilizationSterilize the instrument in an open position. Follow theinstructions of the manufacturer of the units. Make surethat no moisture is sealed in the bag.• Autoclave Sterilization: Recommended to extend thelifetime of the instrument.• Dry heat Sterilization:

- May shorten the life of the instrument especially with insert.

- Plastic handle may distort or discolor.• Cold Sterilization: refer to instructions of the Disinfectionand Cleaning section.Dry heat sterilization is acceptable up to 185˚C (395˚F);higher temperature may affect the hardness and lead todiscoloration of the instrument.

Maintenance and LubricationDefective and corroded instruments need to be eliminat-ed; otherwise corrosion may be transferred to other instru-ments during sterilization. Joints, inserts and ratches ofinstruments have to be treated with paraffin.Tips to lengthen the lifetime of your instrument:

• Applying a light coating of silicone spray to the hingearea every few weeks is recommended. The silicone willhelp promote smooth operation and clean appearance.• Don’t dry-heat sterilize the instruments with plastic handles, as it will tend to distort and discolor the plastic.• Ultrasonic devices tend to loosen-up the brazed parts(insert) and round-off sharp edges sooner due to the vibra-tion generated by the machine.• All cutters should be resharpened and reconditionedevery 6-9 months.• Warranty does not cover routine maintainence, sharpening or reconditioning.

Maintenance and LubricationDefective and corroded instruments needto be eliminated; otherwise corrosion maybe transferred to other instruments duringsterilization. Joints, inserts and ratches ofinstruments have to be treated with paraffin.Tips to lengthen the lifetime of yourinstrument:• Applying a light coating of silicone sprayto the hinge area every few weeks is recommended. The silicone will help promote smooth operation and cleanapperance.• Don’t dry-heat sterilize the instrumentswith plastic handles, as it will tend to distort and discolor the plastic.• Ultrasonic devices tend to loosen-up thebrazed parts (insert) and round-off sharpedges sooner due to the vibration gener-ated by the machine.• All cutters should be resharpened andreconditioned every 6-9 months.• Warranty does not cover routine main-tainence, sharpening or reconditioning.
