Abstract: ABSTRACT A System and Method for Triple-Tube Orthodontic Traction Button for Controlled Tooth Movement The following invention pertains to a system and a method relating to a triple tube orthodontic traction button (100) that allows for controlled tooth movement. The traction button (100) includes a body portion and multiple tubes that are stacked vertically on top of each other. These tubes are designed to accept an orthodontic archwire or traction wire. Each tube is equipped with a locking mechanism that is either opened or closed, thus allowing the insertion and locking of the orthodontic archwire. This configuration allows for sequential locking of the archwire from among multiple tubes, thus enabling controlled orthodontic force application in a multidirectional manner using a single apparatus.
