Overview
Continuous-Force Mechanics for Fixed-Appliance Therapy.
Elastomeric chains apply continuous low-grade force across a span of brackets, supporting orthodontic space closure, anchorage retention, and routine ligation in fixed-appliance cases.
American Orthodontics states a non-latex polyurethane composition manufactured in a separate latex-clean facility with independent air handling — supporting use with latex-sensitive patients when confirmed against the patient's allergy history.

Chairside Reference
Chairside Decision Guide
| Clinical Situation | Recommended Action |
|---|---|
| Use for space closure | Engage the chain along the active bracket span to deliver continuous low-grade force during space-closure or anchorage-retention mechanics. |
| Latex check | Even though the chain is stated non-latex, verify the patient's latex-allergy status during chairside history-taking before use. |
| Reassessment | Reassess force decay at every scheduled appointment — elastomeric force decays through the activation interval. Replace per the clinic's routine retie schedule. |

Clinical Workflow
Application Guidelines & Reference
Application Application Guidelines
-
1
Select
Confirm the chain is appropriate to the planned continuous-force mechanics and that the patient's latex-allergy status is documented.
-
2
Use
Engage onto each bracket along the active span using the clinic's standard placement protocol. Confirm engagement across every bracket in the active span before discharging the appointment.
-
3
Check
Reassess force decay at every scheduled appointment. Replace per the clinic's routine retie schedule, accounting for the expected loss of force over the activation interval.
-
4
Store
Store unopened rolls in dry conditions away from direct sunlight. Once opened, follow the clinic's standard chairside handling and infection-control protocol.
Pairs With Best Used With
- Fixed-appliance brackets (matching the case prescription)
- Orthodontic archwires (NiTi or stainless steel — per stage)
- Distal-end cutters (for archwire management around the active chain)
Professional Note Professional Use Notice
Confirm the patient's latex-allergy status during chairside history-taking before use, even with a non-latex chain. Reassess elastomeric force decay at every scheduled appointment and replace per the clinic's routine retie schedule. For use by qualified orthodontic professionals only.
