- An additional object of this invention is to provide an improved form of orthodontic bracket capable of maintaining the usual flexible arch wire or wires and, in addition, the rigid type. With the use of the rigid arch wire or wires, distortion of the wire and resulting alteration of the stress forces is avoided in cases when the patient bites into hard objects or foods.

5 Claims. (Cl. 32-44) improved form of orthodontic bracket constructed with an arch wire receiving channel at each side of the bracket and a central receiving channel for proper maintenance and positioning of the arch wire or wires. The receiving channels on each side of the bracket are on members of the bracket in continuous construction with the base of the bracket but so formed that they are free of rigid attachment to the base. This particular construction, which will be described in detail in the specifications, creates an improvement in that a spring effect, basic to this invention, is exerted bilaterally at the side receiving channels. A balanced tension is exerted upon the arch wire or wires at these points to permit greater accuracy,
control and stability of the stress forces applied to thearch wire or wires and, in finality, accurate control of tooth movement.
An additional object of this invention is to provide an improved form of orthodontic bracket capable of maintaining the usual flexible arch wire or wires and, in addition, the rigid type. With the use of the rigid arch wire or wires, distortion of the wire and resulting alteration of the stress forces is avoided in cases when the patient bites into hard objects or foods.
Another object of this invention is to provide a very small, simple, improved one piece construction of a bracket in which the arch wire or wires can be quickly inserted in position without the use of a separate clamping unit or device and maintained securely.
Another object of this invention is to provide a bracket which is so gentle in its action that it may be cemented directly to the tooth as well as being attached to a band which is in turn cemented to a tooth.
The objects enumerated above and the advantages of this invention will appear from the following details. A
description of the several views of the drawings is as follows:
Fig. 1. A front view of the bracket attached to a tooth band with arch wires in position.
Fig. 2. A top view of bracket in vertical position with arch wires in position.
Fig. 3. A right end view of the bracket with arch wires inserted.
Fig. 4. Aview of Fig. 1 vertically from top of tooth with band and bracket and arch Wires in position.
It is to be understood that this invention is not limited in its application to the details of construction and arrangement of its members shown in the drawings as this invention is capable of other embodiments and of being constructed in other Ways. It is further understood that the language used herein is for the purpose of description and not of limitation.
States Patent 0 Patented Feb. 14, 1961 Referring to the drawings, 2 in Fig. 1 represents the bracket in its entirety attached to a metal tooth band 1 by means of spot welding or by any suitable means, at the base of the bracket 3, preferably at the points 3A.
The bracket is essentially constructed by die stamping or by any other suitable method of fabricating a metal suitable for insertion and retention in the human mouth. A suitable plastic may be used with apropriate means of attachment to the tooth band or to the tooth directly. The bracket is composed of a base 3 and parallel lateral side members 4, 6 and 5, 7; which are at right angles to and in the same plane with the base 3 and perpendicular members 16, 17 and 20, 21 (not shown). Also, a horizontal member 12 which is at right anglesto the sides 4, 6 and 5, 7. The area indicated by 19 represents the cut out portion of the bracket. The arch wire receiving channels 8 and 9 are continuous with side members 4, 6 and 5, 7. One method of forming this channel is shown in Fig. 3 which is an end view of the right side of the bracket shown in Fig. 1. In Fig. 3, the walls '16 and 17 01 the channel are vertical and parallel and at right angles to the side member 5, 7 ofthe bracket. The top of the channel 18 is parallel to the member 5, 7 and at-right angles to its sides 16,17. Members 4, 8, 6, 12, 13, 7, 9, 5 are continuous with the base 13. The center receiving channel is shown in Fig. 1 at 10 and 11 which represent its wall members. Construction of the center channel comprises two vertical and parallel wallmembersltl and 11 and a connecting fiat base (not shown) to form a U-shape. This center channel may be formed by a milling operation, die stamping or made contino'us with the bracket by a variation in construction. The center channel represents a refinement in the construction of the bracket but may be omitted since it is not essential to the basic advantages of the invention.
The improvement in this bracket is in the creation of a spring efiect with a one piece construction, giving an outrigger type of balance to the tooth. It is to be noted that when the base 3 is Welded to the tooth band 1 at points indicated by 3A, the members 4, 6, 12, .7, 5 are free of attachment. This construction creates a spring tension. To further increase the tension effect, the side portions 4, 6 and 5, 7 together with the portion 12. connecting the ends of the side portions, may be bent out of the plane in which the supporting portion 3 of the bracket is located in a direction toward the ring 1 to which the supporting portion 3 of the bracket is welded or fastened. The top wall portions of the U-shaped channels 8 and 9 respectively formed on the lateral side portions will thereby press the arch wires 14, 15 located in the U-shaped channels against the top surface of the supporting portion 3. By properly bending the side portions of the brackets downwardly against the ring 1 the tension against the arch Wire or wires may be properly adjusted and balanced so that the desired regulating force is exerted on the tooth onto which the ring lis fastened. In Fig. l, 13 is a small channel for the purpose of using a pointed instrument to be inserted therein in order to lift the free members 4, 6, 12, 5, 7 away from the tooth band and allow space through which to insert easily and quickly the arch wire or wires 14, 15 into the center channel between walls 10 and 11 and through the receiving channels 8 and 9. Upon release the free members spring back towards the wall of the tooth band thereby locking the arch wire or wires in position. The improved construction described above permits the bracket to be moulded or shaped to the irregularities of the shape of the teeth thereby assisting further in regulating the pressures necessary to efifect a particular tooth movement.
Fig. 2 represents the elements of construction when viewed from the top of the bracket in vertical position.
3. Fig. 4 shows the relationship of the bracket to the tooth band which is attached to a tooth.
It is to be understood that modifications in the construction of theabovedescribed bracket, one form of whichtis described and illustrated herein, may be. madewithoutdeparting from the scope of this invention.
