A dental (orthodontic) wire cap 10 that is intended to receive the end portion 11 of a dental wire. The end portion 12 is intended to have its end extremity located internally of the cap 10 so that the end extremity of the end portion 11 is located internally of the cap 10 to thereby minimise risk of irritation to the cheek of the user.

An easily applied device is described that protects the soft tissues inside of the mouth from abrasion by orthodontic braces. The device consists of a putty-like, moldable material that may be pressed onto and into and molded about the brackets and wires of orthodontic braces, and a plasticized and dehydrated or partially dehydrated hydrogel-forming layer on those surfaces of the device that contact the braces and teeth so as to absorb saliva and dry to some extent the surfaces to which the device is pressed and to offer initial adhesion of the device to the teeth and/or braces.

An orthodontic protection device including: a protective layer shaped sized to fit over the facial surface of at least one tooth of a human and any orthodontic appliances affixed to the facial surfaces of the at least one tooth, wherein the protective layer includes a moldable material; and an adhesive layer including at least one hygroscopic polymeric material on a facial surface of the protective layer.

An orthodontic bracket is disclosed. The orthodontic bracket according to the present invention includes: a bracket body having a slot formed through the bracket in a direction of right and left; and a bracket cover movably provided on the bracket body to open and close a top of the slot. The bracket cover includes: a cover body provided at a side of the slot for moving forward and backward across the slot; and crossing protrusions formed at a front end of the cover body which faces an opposite side of the slot. and protruding forward with gaps in the direction of right and left. According to the present invention, since when the bracket cover is closed for ligating a wire, the front end of the bracket cover can smoothly slide over the wire, so the bracket cover can be easily closed.

A orthodontic braces assembly includes a plurality of first clamps. Each of the first clamps is attached to a front surface of an associated one of a plurality of a user's teeth. A plurality of second clamps is provided. Each of the second clamps is removably coupled to an associated one of the first clamps. Each of the second clamps engages a wire thereby facilitating the wire to be extended along the plurality of teeth. Each of the second clamps is removed from the associated first clamp thereby facilitating the teeth to be cleaned.

The present disclosure discloses a traction bracket, an orthodontic system, and an orthodontic method thereof. The traction bracket includes a traction component, a main body, a cover body and a connecting component, wherein a surface of the main body is provided with a main groove, the main body is provided with a traction hole, one end of the traction hole is opened at a surface of the main body to form an inlet of a cylindrical traction component, and another end of the traction hole is opened at the main groove of the main body to form an arrestment hole, the traction component matches and is connected to the traction hole, the main body is connected to the cover body via a connecting component, and the bottom surface of the cover body matches the surface of the main body and covers the main groove. The traction component of the traction bracket according to the present disclosure can be easily installed, and is equipped with bolt accessories in two specifications, i.e., a traction bolt and an arrestment bolt. The traction bolt can facilitate sliding of the bracket. When the traction bolt is replaced with an arrestment bolt, the movement of the bracket and the arch wire can be stopped, to strengthen anchorage, achieve removal of the clearance between the arch wire and the groove, and achieve the correction effect of accurate expression of the torque of the bracket.

A orthodontic braces assembly includes a plurality of first clamps. Each of the first clamps is attached to a front surface of an associated one of a plurality of a user's teeth. A plurality of second clamps is provided. Each of the second clamps is removably coupled to an associated one of the first clamps. Each of the second clamps engages a wire thereby facilitating the wire to be extended along the plurality of teeth. Each of the second clamps is removed from the associated first clamp thereby facilitating the teeth to be cleaned.

An ornament for attachment to orthodontic braces, the orthodontic braces having an arch wire overlying a laterally adjacent pair of teeth, the ornament having a web having a front end and a rear end; the ornament further having a first arm fixedly attached to and extending downwardly from the web's front end; the ornament further having a second arm fixedly attached to and extending downwardly from the web's rear end; the ornament further having a channel bounded by structures including the web, the first arm, and the second arm, the channel being fitted for, upon a passage of the arch wire between the first and second arms, nestingly receiving the arch wire.

An orthodontic bracket and an orthodontic assembly are provided. The orthodontic bracket includes a bottom base, a first sidewall, a second sidewall and two blocks. The bottom base has a first surface and a second surface opposite to each other. The first sidewall is disposed on the first surface. The second sidewall is disposed on the first surface and is opposite to the first sidewall. The blocks are disposed on the first surface between the first sidewall and the second sidewall. A bending space is defined and formed between the blocks, a first path is defined and formed between the first sidewall and the blocks, and a second path is defined and formed between the second sidewall and the blocks. An orthodontic wire is configured to be disposed in the first path or the second path, or to extend through the first path, the bending space and the second path.

An appliance for orthodontic hardware in the form of a cap sized to fit over a bracket and arch wire braces system. The cap includes a hollowed, mound shaped body with a bottom edge defining an opening on one side of the body. The cap also includes multiple tabs extending from the edge and partially over the opening. The bottom edge also defines two channels aligned opposite each other and extending from the bottom edge. With this arrangement, the cap can be positioned over a bracket with the tabs engaging the bracket and retaining the cap thereto while the channels defined in the body prevent the cap from engaging the arch wire.
