In general, indirect bonding techniques known in the past have involved the use of a transfer tray having a shape that matches the configuration of at least part of a patient's dental arch. A set of [attachments] such as brackets are releasably connected to the tray at certain, predetermined locations. Adhesive is applied to the base of each [attachment], and the tray is then placed over the patient's teeth until such time as the adhesive hardens. Next, the tray is detached from the teeth as well as from the [attachments], with the result that all of the [attachments] previously connected to the tray are now bonded to the respective teeth at their intended, predetermined locations. 2, record 8, English, - transfer%20tray

Cet appareil unilatéral fixe se place sur un segment de l'arcade dentaire lorsqu'une dent de lait est tombée prématurément, afin d’empêcher les dents adjacentes de migrer dans l'espace nouvellement formé, ce qui nuirait à la dent permanente sous-jacente lors de son éruption. Si une des deux dents de part et autre de l'espace est très endommagée, l'orthodontiste peut opter pour un mainteneur d’espace de type couronne et boucle. Le cas échéant, il pose une couronne en acier inoxydable sur la dent endommagée. Il soude ensuite les extrémités d’un fil en acier inoxydable sur les côtés lingual et buccal de la couronne. Le fil forme ainsi une boucle dont l'extrémité s’appuie sur la dent saine de l'autre côté de l'espace à maintenir. 1, record 9, French, - mainteneur%20d%27espace%20de%20type%20couronne%20et%20boucle
