ABSTRACT:
An orthodontic biassing device with deformed screw threads on the elongated threaded member or receptacle member to provide an interference, but threadable, fit with its respective threaded member to substantially prevent backing-off of the screw due to reaction forces in the mouth of a patient. Sufficient play and tolerance is provided to enable the device to be relatively loose to facilitate alignment and installation in a patient's mouth. After installation, and under expansion conditions, the device tightens up to provide a substantially rigid structure.
