10. ECC Avair SL Wire holding force
• Result: 7N => 700 grams

11. What is really needed?
• According to the studies and the calculation no force
larger than 60 grams on the tooth is needed
• maximum forces for light-wire technique wires (eg.
Thermal, NiTi-wires) bring up a maximum of 400
grams
• => Clip/Door holding is sufficient for treatment with
approximately 500 grams
