Orthodontic Cross-tubes are precision-engineered auxiliary attachments used to connect additional wires or custom mechanics to a main orthodontic archwire. Typically made of high-quality stainless steel, these small components are designed to slide onto or be crimped onto a base wire, providing a second “cross” slot for the insertion of auxiliary wires
Clinical Applications
Cross-tubes are highly versatile and allow orthodontists to perform complex movements without altering the primary appliance setup: [1, 2]
Molar Uprighting: Facilitates the use of auxiliary cantilever wires to tilt tipped molars back into position.
Segmental Arch Mechanics: Allows for the installation of segmented arches or loops for specific tooth movement in a localized area.
Intrusion and Extrusion: Used to anchor wires that apply vertical forces to specific teeth or segments.
Space Closure: Acts as an attachment point for various springs or elastics needed to close gaps between teeth.
Anchorage Systems: Often used in conjunction with Temporary Anchorage Devices (TADs) for indirect anchorage or passive stabilization
