ABSTRACT:
A supplementary device is provided for sliding operation for use in a device for correcting teeth irregularities. The supplementary device abuts a bracket, and has a wire-engaging slit having the same shape as a slit in the bracket so that a wire engaged in the bracket can also be engaged in the slit. The supplementary device has a pair of protrusions which forms a T-shape. The projections are used to anchor a rubber band. The supplementary device is slidable along the wire and slides until stopped, for example by the bracket.
