2. Product Description
TopJet clix allows for reliable and incremental molar distalization through
the use of a programmable telescoping arm. The operator benefits from
the appliance’s optimized handling characteristics and patients benefit
from its maximal comfort. The TopJet clix appliance offers appealing es-
thetics and enables compliance free one or two-sided distalization of the
desired teeth of up to 0.8 mm per month. Due to its compact design, the
installation of TopJet clix is amazingly simple and can be done in small
and narrow palates. The TopJet has already been successfully used in pa-
tients 8 years and older. The appliance can be installed in just a few min-
utes. Add this feature to near invisibility and high patient comfort, and it
is easy to see why this is such a great device. During the entire installa-
tion process, a thread secures the TopJet Distalizer to its packaging out-
side the mouth. This safety feature minimizes the risk of aspiration. The
appliance can only be activated after the tread is cut. The appliance’s
hinge-like connection to the palatal arch, called the T-connector, prevents
distal tipping of the molars. Use of a transpalatal arch (TPA) ensures a lack
molar rotation and the TopJet’s friction-free power output. Operators can
choose from either a 250 cN (black coding) or 360 cN (red coding) ver-
sion (see section “Selecting the TopJet clix”).
The TopJet clix can be special ordered for lengths in excess of 8 mm. At
the maximum spring activation, the smallest distance between the micro
implant and the TPA is 14 mm while the largest distance is 28 mm. This
allows for a maximum distalization of 14 mm. The TopJet can be reacti-
vated in 1.8 mm increments.
Selection of TopJet clix
Black Coding: TopJet clix 250 (250 cN) Is mainly used in children to distal-
ize the upper first molars only.
Red Coding: TopJet clix 360 (360 cN) For molars and premolar distaliza-
tion. Can be deactivated to exert less force.
3. Field of Application
Indications
1. Crowding in the maxillary anterior with sufficient space in the posteri-
or for distalization (consider removal of third molars!)
2. Protruded maxillary anterior teeth
3. Lack of space in the maxillary buccal segments (i.e. peg laterals, miss-
ing/narrow primary teeth or impacted premolars ).
4. Class II malocclusion with mesially migrated maxillary molars (also in
skeletal class III/dental class II combination cases). The TopJet clix can
be used without problems on one side or both sides.
Contraindications
1. Periodontally compromised molars when using high force values
2. Short maxilla (distally directed second molars)
