A device and method for affixing orthodontic brackets to teeth includes a support member, a holder mounted on the support member for holding orthodontic brackets, and a base member mounted on the support member at a predetermined distance from the holder and parallel to the holder. In operation, a bracket is engaged with the holder and a dental adhesive is applied to the bracket. The base member initially contacts the tooth, followed by the bracket, which urges against the surface of the tooth at the predetermined distance from the base member. Once positioned, the bracket is held in place until the adhesive sets, thereby affixing the bracket to the tooth.
