An orthodontic bracket having a base with a front face and spaced tie wings, with a generally central recess provided between the tie wings. With non-metal brackets, a separate jig or insert may be positioned between the tie wings. The jig or insert includes a central recess. The orthodontic brackets are designed to be positioned on an individual's tooth with the aid of a conventional bracket positioning gauge having a guide which is received in the recess of a bracket or the recess of a jig or insert. In alternate embodiments, one or more grooves may be provided between the tie wings to both assist in bracket positioning and to reduce friction between a bracket and the archwire which extends between brackets.

Verrou orthodontique possédant une base avec une face frontale et des ailes de fixation espacées, présentant généralement un retrait central entre les ailes. Dans le cas de verrous non métalliques, un gabarit ou insertion séparés peut être positionné entre les ailes. Le gabarit ou l'insertion comporte un retrait central. Les verrous orthodontiques sont conçus de façon à se placer sur les dents d'une personne avec l'aide d'une jauge de positionnement classique munie d'un guide qui est reçu dans le retrait d'un verrou ou dans celui d'un gabarit ou d'une insertion. Dans d'autres versions, une ou plusieurs rainures peuvent être prévues entre les ailes de fixation afin à la fois de faciliter le positionnement du verrou et de réduire le frottement entre un verrou et le fil de l'arc entre les verrous.
