Abstract: The orthodontic bracket positioning instrument is designed to engage an orthodontic bracket for precisely positioning a center of an orthodontic bracket on a center of the crown while maintaining an open visual field of the bracket and relevant structures of the tooth. The positioning instrument includes a key that is configured to mate with a receiving aperture formed in the bracket. A proximal side of the key is supported by a base that extends along a length of the key. An alignment notch is defined within a proximal side of the base to indicate the center of the bracket, as well as the horizontal axis of the bracket. A handle extends from the proximal side of the base. The handle may extend from the base at an angle to provide a clear line of sight to the base, the bracket, and supporting tooth.

Abstract: The orthodontic bracket includes a base and a bracket body extending from the base. The bracket body includes a lower labial surface on which a first indicia is displayed and a plurality of tie-wings extending from corner portions of the base on which a second indicia is displayed. The labial surfaces face the patients lips, once positioned on the patient's tooth. The first indicia can be a number corresponding to a specific tooth in a patient's mouth to which the bracket is designed to attach. The second indicia can be a dot positioned on a tie-wing associated with a specific quadrant of the patient's mouth.
