Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to a two piece fixed functional orthodontic bracket appliance to which a flexible archwire can be engaged. This two piece orthodontic bracket appliance allows for constant mobility through a full range of orthodontic tooth movement, and provides for greater innerbracket distance. It also allows free sliding of wires through its components in such a way as to reduce binding and friction. It also provides an irregular base which promotes mechanical bonding to teeth.
