The present invention employs a self-ligating orthodontic bracket comprising a body having a pair of laterally spaced gingival tie wings and a pair of laterally spaced occlusal tie wings, the gingival and occlusal tie wings projecting from a labial surface of the body; an arch wire slot extending mesially-distally across the body and between the gingival and occlusal tie wings to accommodate an arch wire; a free-sliding, controlled-locking, or pivoting clip wherein the clip allows placement and removal of the arch wire when in the open position and prevents the displacement of the arch wire from the bracket member when in the closed position.

An orthodontic post and pin assembly including a post structure, being slotted at its back end, for accommodating a pin therethrough, the post includes a further slot into which the wire of an orthodontic appliance may locate, so that when the post and pin assembly are connected onto the wire, and a hybrid screw is tighten within the post, the appliance may become affixed to the wire at the position of its tightening and securement. This eliminates the need for removal of the wire, when a different or different size orthodontic appliance needs to be installed.

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 arrestment-traction hole, one end of the arrestment-traction hole is opened at a surface of the main body to form a traction hole, and another end of the arrestment-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 arrestment-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.

Disclosed is a traction/locking element, a traction/locking set, an orthodontic bracket, an orthodontic bracket setup and a tooth orthodontic method. The traction/locking element comprises a strip-shaped nail body having a cross-sectional area of 0.06-2.5 mm.sup.2 and a length of 0.8-4.5 mm. The front end of the nail body is a first fixed end, and the rear end thereof is a first screwing end. The first fixed end is provided with connecting external screws, with an external diameter that is 0.2-1.6 mm. At least the end position of the first screwing end is provided with a first force applying surface. The traction is performed in time according to the traction opportunity of orthodontics, and the traction is very reliable, reducing the discomfort in the oral cavity. With a breaking part and a disassembly and assembly tool, the assembly and disassembly are convenient.
