This appliance provides effective distal molar movement and limits mesial movement through the incorporation of a Nance button. The IPC extends through tubes to guide the maxillary first molars during distalization. Activation takes place by compressing the NiTi open coil springs against the molar tubes. Download Rx Form |

IPC Rapid Palatal Expander Designed for orthopedic expansion along with labial alignment of incisors. As expansion occurs, the IPC controls the NiTi open coil spring force applied to the lingual surface of the anterior teeth. The lingual component is designed with an overlapping spring that follows the lateral expansion of the appliance, while labial aligning forces are applied to the anterior teeth. Download Rx Form |

IPC Mandibular Sagittal In addition to molar distalizing force, this appliance applies pressure to the anterior teeth to move them in a labial direction. Activation occurs as the IPC sliding lock compresses the NiTi open coil spring against the molar tube. Download Rx Form |

IPC 6x6 Unilateral Space Regainer Effective for opening space where premature loss of a permanent or deciduous tooth has occurred, while maintaining arch length. Space is regained by compressing the labial and lingual NiTi open coil springs against the molar tubes. Distal movement of the posterior segment as well as mesial movement of the anterior segment is achieved. Download Rx Form |

IPC E-Arch (Arnold) Expander Ideal for transverse expansion of maxillary or mandibular arches where patient compliance is a concern. A tube-like framework is located on half of the arch which is connected to the IPC on the opposing side. Activation occurs by sliding the collar anteriorly along the IPC, compressing the NiTi open coil spring against the tube. Download Rx Form |
