ABSTRACT:
A multiple compartment box for use in sterilizing and segregating small parts, such as orthodontic bands. The box is shaped as a cassette and is divided into a plurality of small compartments by a plurality of dividers, which include at least one intersecting divider mutually perpendicular to the other dividers. The entire cassette including dividers and lid is preferably made of a material which is resistant to repeated sterilization processing, such as, a metal. Each compartment is identified with respect to an orthodontic band associated with a particular jaw, quadrant and tooth of a patient's mouth to assist is segregating and differentiating the band. The dividers have substantially flat edges which closely abut the inner adjoining surfaces of the sidewalls, endwalls, base and lid to prevent passage of bands identified for one compartment to another compartment. The box incorporates a sliding lid which can be opened or closed without interfering with the divider edges or the contents of the compartments.
