ABSTRACT:
An orthodontic bracket assembly having a locking member rotatably mounted within the body of a bracket member. The bracket body defines an arch-wire slot, and the locking member includes a hollow hub with a slotted portion which is rotatable into alignment with the arch-wire slot so an arch wire can be seated in both the body member and the hub. Rotation of the hub closes the arch-wire slot to lock the wire in place.
