A dental bracket is described which comprises a nonmetallic bracket, typically formed from a transparent crystalline alumina. To this non-metallic bracket there is bound a stainless steel metallic foil mesh pad which is adhesively connected to the dental bracket. The foil mesh pad can thereafter be bound to the tooth using typical adhesives, and without worrying of bonding or debonding associated with ceramic or crystallic brackets. If desired, one can make the stainless steel pad aesthetically pleasing, to obtain further aesthetic benefits from this device.
