Elastodynamic bracket design. Design of the bracket differs from conventional brackets in its slot geometry of a V slot and V wire. This achieves an accurate fit of the wire in the slot. As a result of the V slot, slot-filling archwires can be used for the first time. The monolithic design of the nickel titanium (NiTi) bracket allows for flexible bracket structures and the transmission of small, well-defined moments.
