In the second part of this series, three clinical examples are presented to illustrate the use of auxiliary space-closure springs with clinically manageable moment-to-force ratios and new canine brackets to accommodate these springs within the framework of conventional and straight-wire 0.018-inch appliance systems. Eligiloy retraction spring models (0.1650 inch x 0.02150 inch) in the edgewise mode were developed for translational movements along a main archwire. The effects of different preactivation bends for influencing intraarch anchorage are shown for the conditions of reciprocal closure, posterior protraction, and anterior retraction.
