    Uploaded by

    Nimrah Razzaque Memon
    The finger-spring is a single cantilever used to tip a tooth mesially or palatally. It is made of 0.5mm round stainless steel. It has an active arm placed towards the tissues, a coil positioned midway between the initial and final tooth position, and a zigzag tag that follows the palate curvature but does not sit on the tissues. When placed, the active arm is adapted away from the tooth surface in the interdental area with a small loop.
