    Abstract: An orthodontic Bracket and tooth positioning system, consisting of a plurality of brackets, capable of moving the attached teeth in (all) 6 directions of (all) 3 planes to their desired final position. The basis of this movement is a unique two part construction of the brackets. The two parts are separated easily for readjustment in a different position. Many positions can be thus achieved with ease. The first part of the orthodontic bracket (Part A) consists of a mesh pad on its inner aspect to be bonded onto the surface of the enamel of the tooth; on the outer aspect it has 5 holes (indents). The second part (Part B) of the orthodontic bracket consists of a projection or peg to fit any of the holes on part A on its inner aspect, together with a slot on its outer aspect, for the arch wire to run through. Part B can be easily removed and realigned in a different hole to enable fine control to play on the arch wire.
