Self-ligating orthodontic bracket (100, 200) comprising a base (101, 201), a body (105, 205), a groove (115, 215) which is intended to receive an orthodontic archwire (400) and which has an opening (115d, 215d) that opens in the direction of the occlusion plane (PO), and a movable closure element (130, 230) for the groove, which closure element (130, 230) is movable between a position for closing and a position for opening the groove (115, 215). The bracket according to the invention is essentially characterized in that it comprises a single means permitting blocking of the movable element (130, 230) in the position for closing the groove (115, 215) and retention of this movable element (130, 230) in the position for opening the groove (115, 215). |
