                                                                           BECAUSE THE BRACKET PROFILE IS LOWER AND FLATTER
                                                                           INITIAL SPEECH IMPAIRMENT AND TONGUE SORENESS ARE
                                                                           SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED. THE ARCH WIRE IS LIGATED
                                                                           TO THE BRACKETS BY VERY THIN LIGATING WIRE,
                                                                           HOWEVER, IT CAN ALSO BE ATTACHED BY TINY ELASTICS.
