ABSTRACT:
An orthodontal electrical device for assisting in the repositioning of a tooth in the mouth of a patient is attached directly to the tooth to be repositioned to thereby cause anodic and cathodic electrodes thereof to move automatically relative to the gingival lining as the tooth is being repositioned to thereby continuously maintain the desired orientation between the tooth being repositioned and the anodic and cathodic electrodes of the device. The method of employing low current electrical energy to assist in the repositioning of a tooth by automatically moving anodic and cathodic surface electrodes with the movement of the tooth undergoing repositioning also forms a part of the invention.
