Definitions

  • the invention relates to a locking mechanism for a bracket arrangement for braces.
  • Braces permanently attached to a set of teeth are attached to teeth by means of bracket arrangements.

  • the front incisors are primarily suitable, which have a sufficiently large tooth surface on which the bracket can be firmly attached.
  • the posterior molars are surrounded by small rings that are fixed to the tooth with a special cement.
  • brackets and rings are introduced into the dentition, to which the brace wire is fixed with wires or other, bulky fastening elements.
  • the brace wire For the purpose of correcting the tooth position, the brace wire must be re-tensioned from time to time or completely replaced.

  • This work is very time-consuming, since a short piece of wire must be used on each bracket arrangement in order to fasten the brace wire to it.
  • These time-consuming and time-consuming maintenance and repair work on the braces are very stressful for the patient wearing the braces and, moreover, involve high costs due to the time-consuming work that must be carried out by an orthodontist.
  • the object of the invention is to create a compact bracket arrangement which is designed with a shape that is as free from edges as possible and which allows very simple handling, so that a brace wire can be quickly and easily re-tensioned and renewed.
