The cuspid to bemoved is banded, and a shortsection of tubing soldered toit to receive the end of thetraction screw. On turning the nut trac-tion is produced and the cus-pid drawn into place. The cuspid is kept from beingrotated while it is being moved backward, by means of theshort tube accurately fitting the right angled end of thetraction screw. Another outward movement of a tooth by means of thejack-screw is shown inFig. 35. The second bi-cuspid is made the prin-cipal anchorage, againstwhich the base of thetube rests. The band en-circling the lateral incisorhas a slot cut in it toreceive the end of
