Orthodontic metal clasps are custom-made dental devices designed to securely hold removable orthodontic appliances in place against a patient’s teeth. They provide stability during orthodontic treatment by attaching to fixed teeth, ensuring the appliance remains effective throughout the duration of therapy.
These devices are typically single-use, fabricated specifically for individual patients based on their dental anatomy. Regulation varies by jurisdiction, but they are generally classified as medical devices and must comply with manufacturing standards for custom-made, patient-specific items.
