Abstract
This article is a presentation of a clinical methodology aimed at minimizing binding in fixed orthodontic appliances. The dynforce archwire is explained. The dynforce archwire has a full size anterior segment (e.g. .021×.025) and undersized posterior segments with rectangular cross-section (e.g. .018×.025 or .018×.022), and is used in the orthodontic phase of space closure with or without TAD miniscrews. Two clinical cases are presented.Keywords: TAD; archwire; binding; ceramic brackets; friction; incisor; miniscrew; retraction; skeletal anchorage; sliding; torque
