Question: What is a coil spring for on braces!?
Answers:
A coiled spring is usually used on an archwire to open or gain more space, usually when a tooth is crowded!. It will exert pressure on the teeth on either side of the coil and push them apart!. It can also be used to hold or maintain space when a tooth doesn't have a bracket, such as an erupting tooth or broken bracket!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
