ABSTRACT:
A metal bracket is provided with a covering formed for dental porcelain. The porcelain is placed on the sides and buccal surfaces of the bracket and provides for an aesthetic appearance to the bracket. However, the high strength is provided by the metal. The exposed metallic surfaces of the archwire slot and base enable the bracket to function in the manner of a metal bracket. This porcelain fused to metal bracket enables the user to derive the best possible functions of both types of materials.
