摘要
Mandibular attachment structure for use in an orthodontic assembly having a force member connecting the mandibular and maxillar portions of the assembly and method of using the same. The structure includes bands dimensioned to encircle corresponding lower molars on opposite sides of the tongue, and threadless couplers each of which is removably or releasably affixed to a buccal side of a corresponding band. Neither the structure nor the method requires the use of an orthodontic brace to maintain a pressing connection between the structure and the rest of an orthodontic assembly, but the use of orthodontic braces is accommodated. The pressing connection is maintained by cooperating a hook at the end of the force member and a hook at the end of a threadless coupler.
