ABSTRACT:
An orthodontic mirror which is particularly useful for applying and aligning banding brackets to the teeth of the upper arch. The orthodontic mirror includes a handle having an elongated major axis and a mirror element attached to the handle at an obtuse angle. The mirror is generally rectangular and planar and extends in a plane at an obtuse angle with respect to the handle. The mirror element has a length which is substantially as great as a combined width of at least two teeth to which the brackets are to be applied and aligned and a width dimension of approximately one half of the length.
