ABSTRACT:
An orthodontic O-ring holder that can be transformed from a linear shape to a ring shape having a central tree or core with a plurality of orthodontic O-rings attached thereto. The orthodontic O-rings are frangibly attached to the central tree or core for ease of separation, and coupling means are provided for latching the opposed ends of the linear tree together to form a ring shaped dispenser. Therefore, the doctor can use the orthodontic O-ring dispenser in either a linear or ring form, depending upon the doctor's preference or application. The entire assembly is made of an elastic material.
