ABSTRACT:
A dispenser and method for storing and dispensing orthodontic arch wires of arcuate configuration, having first and second pairs of opposed side walls of generally rectangular disposition closed by a bottom wall and an opposed top wall to store arch wires in a stacked relationship generally parallel to the first pair of side walls, the top wall having an opening at least slightly shorter than the base width of said arch wire, such that the arch wire will protrude only a distance from the dispenser sufficient to be grabbed and pulled when removed from the dispenser through said opening and the second pair of opposed side walls constructed and arranged to maintain the apex of the stored arch wire orientated toward the dispenser opening such that the arch wires can be dispensed without contaminating the remaining arch wires.
