The accurate bracket positioning is essential for the expression of the bracket system that affects the treatment outcome considerably and is also essential for good functional occlusion as well as facial esthetics. The proper alignment cannot be achieved without proper bracket positioning. Thus, the brackets positioning devices are an integral part of orthodontic armamentarium. Here, we present a new innovation that provides a unique combination of reverse bracket tweezer and positioner and hence is very helpful in precise vertical positioning of brackets with increased efficiency.
