CA 2650343

A convertible orthodontic bracket is disclosed, wherein an archwire slot therein has a removable slot covering, thereby allowing the bracket to serve as a buccal tube during a first stage of treatment and an edgewise bracket during a subsequent phase of treatment. The slot covering is removable by detaching the slot covering from the bracket body along one or more predetermined extents of weakness, wherein each such extent of weakness includes perforations or voids providing a passage between an exterior of the bracket and an interior of the first archwire slot.

L'invention concerne un support orthodontique transformable, comportant un logement en fil arqué ayant un couvercle de logement amovible, permettant ainsi au support de servir de tube buccal pendant une première phase de traitement et de support sur chant pendant une phase subséquente de traitement. Le couvercle du logement est amovible en détachant le couvercle de logement du corps de support le long d'un ou de plusieurs points faibles prédéterminés, chaque point faible comprenant des perforations ou des vides qui permettent un passage entre l'extérieur du support et l'intérieur du premier logement en fil arqué.
