ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for mounting orthodontic appliances, such as brackets, to teeth involves the use of a tape which has an adhesive on a surface thereof, and means for mounting the appliance to the tape such that the rear surface of the appliance which is to be secured to a tooth is exposed to the tooth. The tape preferably comprises means for angularly and/or vertically indicating the orientation of the appliance relative to the tape so that it may be mounted to a tooth with a predetermined orientation. The tape preferably has an adhesive which adheres to wet or damp surfaces so that it is not necessary to completely dry the complete surface of the tooth on which the tape is to be mounted.
