Abstract:
An orthodontic button has a base for bonding attachment to a tooth. A substantially vertical slot extends into the outer face of the button, and divides the button into a smaller lateral segment covering a smaller portion of the base and a larger lateral segment covering a larger portion of the base. A post on the larger lateral segment provides a point of attachment for removably engaging an elastic to the button. Exerting a lateral compressive force on the smaller lateral segment and the larger lateral segment compresses the slot and releases the base from the tooth.

Claim (Index 10):
The orthodontic button of  claim 8  wherein the recess further comprises an opening at the lateral end of the larger lateral segment opposite the vertical slot for receiving an elastic.
