Title: Chrome cobalt?
Post by: Braceletta on 07. March 2018, 15:34:48 PM

I was wondering, can the online shop make chrome cobalt appliances? For example a Hawley retainer, but with the plate made from chrome cobalt (or similar) with a steel labial wire?
Or even just a chrome cobalt plate, with no wire? Would it be very expensive?

I second that question!

To give a translation:
Braceletta fragt, ob der Shop auch Geräte aus Chrom-Cobalt-Legierung, d.h. mit einer Basis aus Metallguss statt Acryl, herstellen kann und ob das sehr teuer wäre. Der Frage würde ich mich anschließen...

Thanks Simcaptain! my German language is pretty non-existent, and I thought that Google Translate would make it even worse!  ;D

Hi was this question ever answered,that would be an amazing brace,large steel plate as well as metal brackets and wires over the teeth,maybe it could have twin wires joined to each other so that when put over the teeth it made it even tighter,i had a brace similar with twin wires,but my plate was acrylic,be interesting if this could be made.Whats other peoples view on this.

In case the Braces Shop cannot make this, I have sent a request to a Chrome Cobalt denture manufacturer in China (through Alibaba).
We might be able to do a group buy, if the Braces Shop don't have the equipment?

Hi Braceletta,yes sounds interesting,did they mention a price,things in china are much cheaper then in europe,i presume you would have to send them your teeth impressions which might take quite a bit of time.Definately worth a go through,keep us informed of your progress.

The Alibaba man has responded, with a price of $88-$150 - not sure that he understood exactly what I was asking about (Chinglish!). I will reply and ask him to clarify exactly what it is that we need, and ask for a picture of a sample.
