Among the neatest andmost effective for this purpose are those devised by Dr. EugeneTalbot and Dr. Angle. Dr. Talbots method is as follows: A vulcanite plate is made to fit the teeth and alveolar process,and cut away so that the anterior parts extend far enough forwardto inclose the teeth to be moved. (See Fig. 231.) A piece of piano-wire is bent into either of the forms shown in Fig. 232, wherein ais the coil and fixed point; b b, movable arms extending from a,and c c, movable arms extending from b b. Grooves are cut intothe anterior and posterior parts of the plate to correspond with andreceive the points b b and c c. Holes are drilled at these points, Fig.
