Abstract
A shield for use with a pair of orthodontic pliers in removing an orthodontic bracket. The shield fits snuggly onto one jaw of the pliers and provides side walls adjacent the plier jaws. The jaws have a recess near their distal end such that the confronting surfaces of the jaw recesses and the confronting surfaces of the side walls provide an enclosure about a bracket while it is being removed so that if it fractures the enclosure will contain any pieces that may break off the bracket.
