Summary:A new and useful orthodontic clasp that is more resistant to breakage, and when in use is unlikely to separate from its associated orthodontic appliance should breakage occur, comprising two metal wires crossed at an angle and held together with a weld/solder joint, said weld/solder joint having four wire segments extending from said two metal wires crossed at the weld/solder joint, two of said wire segments adjacent and longer in length and two of said wire segments adjacent and shorter in length, said four wire segments each having a clasp wire bend. L'invention porte sur un crochet orthodontique nouveau et utile qui est plus résistant à la cassure et qui, lorsqu'il est utilisé, est peu susceptible de se séparer de son appareil orthodontique associé dans l'hypothèse de la survenue d'une cassure, lequel crochet comprend deux fils métalliques croisés à un angle et maintenus ensemble à l'aide d'un joint soudé/à brasure tendre, ledit joint soudé/à brasure tendre ayant quatre segments de fil s'étendant à partir desdits deux fils métalliques croisés au joint soudé/à brasure tendre, deux desdits segments de fil étant adjacents et de plus grande longueur et deux desdits segments de fil étant adjacents et de plus courte longueur, lesdits quatre segments de fil ayant chacun une courbe de fil de crochet.
