Orthodontic plate having a pair of extended hooks

An orthodontic plate, comprising:

• a base having a first end, a second end opposite to the first end, a first length extending in a first direction between the first and second ends thereof, and a first width and a first thickness along the first length thereof, wherein the base includes first to third through holes, each of which penetrating the base in a direction of the first thickness, the first to third through holes being spaced apart from one another, and wherein the base has a first side surface defined by a portion of the first length and the first thickness thereof,
• a stem extending from the first side surface of the base in a second direction, substantially perpendicular to the first direction, wherein the stem has a second length in the second direction, and a second width and a second thickness along the second length thereof, wherein the stem has a first side surface and a second side surface, opposite to the first side surface, wherein the first side surface of the stem is defined by the second length and the second thickness thereof, and wherein the second side surface of the stem is defined by the second length and the second thickness thereof;
• a first arm extending from the first side surface of the stem in a third direction, the second and third directions forming an acute angle with one another, wherein the first arm has a third length extending in the third direction, and a third width and a third thickness along the third length thereof, the first arm having a first end side surface defined by the third width and the third thickness thereof, the first end side surface being distal from the stem;
• a first hook connected to the first arm at the first end side surface of the first arm, wherein the first hook has a fourth length, and a fourth width and a fourth thickness along the fourth length thereof;
• a second arm extending from the second side surface of the stem in a fourth direction, the fourth direction mirroring the third direction about an imaginary axis that passes through a middle of the stem in the second direction, wherein the second arm has a fifth length extending in the fourth direction, and a fifth width and a fifth thickness along the fifth length thereof, the second arm having a second end side surface defined by the fifth width and the fifth thickness thereof, the second end side surface being distal from the stem;
• and
• a second hook connected to the second arm at the second end side surface of the second arm, wherein the second hook has a sixth length, and a sixth width and a sixth thickness along the sixth length thereof;
• wherein the first to third through holes are arranged in-line with one another in the horizontal, vertical, and sagittal planes;
• wherein the first to third through holes are flat holes with a uniform thickness;
• and
• wherein an axis passes through a middle of the stem and a distance between the axis and the first hook is the same length as the distance between the axis and the second hook, the distance between the axis and the first through hole, and the distance between the axis and the third through hole.
