FAQ

What does "reverse curve" mean on an archwire?
A reverse curve archwire is bent with an exaggerated curve opposite to the natural curve of Spee, which helps intrude lower anteriors and extrude posteriors to open a deep bite during leveling.

Should I choose the upper or lower oval?
Match the variant to the arch you're treating — upper oval for the maxillary arch, lower oval for the mandibular arch; reverse curve wires are most often used on the lower arch for deep bite cases.

When in treatment is this wire typically used?
Reverse curve NiTi wires are generally introduced during the leveling and alignment phase, once initial round wires have started resolving crowding, and before moving to working rectangular wires.
