What is a Vigor Bar?
A Power Bar, also known as a Power Arm or Leap Bar, is a specialized orthodontic auxiliary appliance used to apply controlled forces to teeth. It is particularly useful in complex cases where traditional brackets and archwires alone are insufficient to achieve the desired tooth movement.
What is a Vigor Bar?
The Power Bar is a metallic attachment designed to be bonded to a molar or premolar band, with an extended arm that allows the orthodontist to apply force through elastics, springs, or other auxiliaries. Its unique design enables precise control of force direction, which is essential for correcting challenging malocclusions.
Main Uses of a VigorBar
Space Closure
Helps in retracting anterior teeth after premolar extraction.
Deep Bite Correction
Assists in controlling the vertical dimension by applying intrusive or extrusive forces.
Root Control
Allows forces to be applied closer to the tooth’s center of resistance, improving torque and root positioning.
Elastic Attachments
Provides a reliable hook or slot for intermaxillary elastics.
Materials and Design
Usually made of high-quality stainless steel or titanium.
Available in different lengths and shapes (straight or curved) to suit various clinical situations.
Can be bonded directly to teeth or attached to orthodontic bands/tubes.
