A universal trim kit for tubs or showers and a variety of different OEM valves is disclosed that includes an escutcheon in the form of a decorative outer ring in combination with a plurality of interchangeable inserts and at least two fasteners, typically screws, for releasably attaching the escutcheon and one of the inserts to a valve body. The escutcheon further comprises a generally circular, centrally disposed aperture surrounded by an annular flange that functions as a seating surface for any of a plurality of interchangeable inserts, each insert being attachable to the outer ring and to a valve body disposed behind the ring, each insert also having a differently sized or shaped aperture configured for attachment to the body of a particular OEM valve.

A novel orthodontic bracket system includes orthodontic appliances, such as brackets or buccal tubes, with a vertical instead of the conventional horizontal slot orientation. The occlusal-gingival slot orientation minimizes the risk of unintentional debonding of the bracket as a result of insertion and removal of the archwire. An archwire retention mechanism designed to guide, retain and/or seat the archwire. The archwire retention mechanism releases the archwire from the archwire slot whenever appropriate force is applied, or manipulation of physical properties of the material are altered by the operator.
