Orthodontic metal clasps are small, preformed metal components designed to secure removable orthodontic appliances to a patient’s teeth. They provide stability during orthodontic treatment by attaching to fixed teeth, ensuring the appliance remains in place while correcting dental alignment.
These devices are typically single-use, manufactured to precise specifications for direct placement in the mouth. They are regulated as medical devices, often classified based on their intended use and risk profile, though classification varies by jurisdiction. Suppliers provide them as sterile or non-sterile products depending on the clinical application.
