  • Patent number: 10405948
    Abstract: The invention relates to an orthodontic device which is particularly economical and as small as possible, and which has hooks and a small tube, produced from a sheet metal plate using stamping and bending techniques and without the use of welding or soldering. The orthodontic device comprises a base plate having a flat region with a gingival and an occlusal edge. An occlusal rolling forms the small tube. The gingival edge has a counter-directional rolling. Concave cuts are formed in the side edges in order to form wing-shaped hooks. Both rollings can hold an applicator/protector, with which the orthodontic device is protected during adhesion, and can then be applied to a tooth in the correct orientation.

  • Patent number: 10265142
    Abstract: A kit for an orthodontic bracket, which includes at least a base plate and a flap that can be pivoted over the base plate, to which a flap directly or indirectly guided wire bow can be fastened. The kit includes a selection of base plates and flaps differing in size and shape. Base plates and flaps are produced from sheet metal by bending and stamping. The two parts can be connected to each other without a shaft by being pivoted in relation to each other.

  • Publication number: 20190076219
    Abstract: A particularly simple orthodontic bracket manufactured using cutting and bending technology, proposed for a number of different indications, includes a base plate having an adhesive side and a visible side, and an element for the guided retention of a treatment arch wire. The bracket is made in one piece and has, as a guiding element, a longitudinal guiding bulge extending mesio-distally and shaped out of the plane of the base plate. A treatment arch wire can be guided through beneath the guide bulge, such that it lies against the base plate.

  • Publication number: 20170086948
    Abstract: A kit for an orthopedic bracket, which includes at least a base plate and a flap that can be pivoted over the base plate, to which flap a directly or indirectly guided wire bow can be fastened. For a treatment of a new type, a kit has base plates and flaps differing in size and shape from a selection. Base plates and flaps are produced from sheet metal by bending and punching. The two parts can be connected to each other without a shaft by being pivoted in relation to each other.

  • Patent number: 7775793
    Abstract: An orthodontic bracket is provided. The bracket includes a rear wall coming to rest on a buccal or lingual tooth surface; and two guide surfaces running at right angles to one another, for guiding an archwire with a rectangular cross section, wherein the two guide surfaces are arranged distanced to the rear wall. A first gingival web runs below the first guide surface and at least one second occlusal web runs above the first guide surface, with a second passage being left free between the first web and the rear wall, and a first passage being left free between the second web and the rear wall.

  • Publication number: 20050227196
    Abstract: The bonding of orthodontic fixing elements in a precise position on the dental surface is extremely difficult. The invention relates to a kit for this purpose, consisting of orthodontic fixing elements (10), whose bonding surface (3) is curved in a convex manner in at least one direction. This ensures that the shape of the element is adapted to the tooth by means of the adhesive. According to the invention, a protector (20), equipped with a recess that forms the complement of the orthodontic fixing element, is provided. The orthodontic fixing element comprising the protector is applied by being held in an applicator (30), equipped with various direction locators (35-38), by means of a positive fit, in such a way that a correct positioning can be clearly identified.
