    Abstract: The invention provides a ligature that has a defining formed shape and is affixed and integrated with the formed shape of the orthodontic bracket. The ligature can be repeatedly opened, closed, locked, or unlocked, in its integrated relation to the bracket. If necessary, the entire integrated ligature can be removed and replaced. Also, the removed ligature can be replaced by a similar ligature having a variance in the defining formed shape thereof. The integrated ligature has properties of, shape memory, elasticity, flexibility, and resistance to fatigue. The bracket has one or more arch wire receiving channels therein. The bracket also has, in addition to its relation to the integrated ligature, retention concavities in the upper and lower sides of the bracket to provide retention areas for auxiliary devices and/or supplemental ligatures. The integrated ligature and orthodontic bracket has a unique mechanical flexation response mechanism providing for continuous used and repeatable, opening, closing, locking and unlocking, of the ligature in its integrated relation to the bracket.

    Abstract: An orthodontic bracket in which the archwire is locked in place by a resilient locking loop member which snaps into and out of engagement over the bracket. The locking loop member is a nickel-titanium wire of high resilience and shape memory which not only locks in the archwire but imparts force against it as a function of the shape memory of the locking loop member.

    Abstract: An orthodontic system including an ultraelastic archwire having a transformation temperature of normal body temperature of about 37.degree. C. is provided. Only a small load is applied to the teeth when the orthodontic system is disposed in a patient's mouth. An increased load is applied to the teeth only when the temperature in the mouth is increased by placing a material having a higher than body temperature in the mouth. As a result, the temperature in the patient's mouth can be controlled without inflicting pain during natural every day actions. The orthodontic effect is available intermittently by raising the mouth temperature for producing higher stress or load which serves to move the teeth orthodontically. The ultaelastic alloy is preferably Ni-Ti alloy containing at least about 50.5 atomic percent of nickel and preferably about 50.7 atomic percent.
