Magnets may be used
in orthodontics’ future

Crisscrossed by wires and
laced with elastics, the smile of
an orthodontic patient bristles

umbia University’s School of De
ntal and Oral Surgery. What he
proposes is replacing the bands
with four small, powerful mag
nets. Wired to the metal bands,
they would steadily pull and
align the teeth.
Magnets would work faster
than conventional procedures,
Blechman told Science Digest. “I
have used magnets on four pa
tients. Treatment times have
been decreased by as much as 50
percent,” he claims.
Another year of research is
necessary before the magnets
will be widely available.
