Pozzi Products, a division of American Tooth Industries, introduces two products for use with orthodontic expansion screws.
The Pozzi Straight Tip Activator is used for the initial expansion prior to the fabrication of the appliance. The straight-tip instrument is inserted halfway through the hole and given a hard turn, using the thumb and forefinger. Hardened stainless-steel tips are removable, however both tip and cone socket handle are completely sterilizable up to 350°F. Handles are lightweight and durable with a comfortable "no-slip" grip.
The Pozzi Clinical Expansor (patent pending) is an innovative new instrument used for advancing expanding appliances intraorally with a lateral approach.
