The Pendulum appliance performs the same basic function as the ACCO appliance in that it is intended to distalize molars. Aside from other design differences, there are 2 features that set the Pendulum Appliances apart. The Pendulum is a fixed appliance with pre-activated springs. Since the patient can not take it out, it applies force to the molars all of the time. The wire used to make the springs also has a great deal of what is referred to as “memory”, meaning it tends to spring back to its original shape. This prevents the clinician from having to make frequent adjustments to the springs.
