The invention relates to a tooth top part for a tooth correction means (1), with a base body (2) at which a tooth support surface (5, 25, 45) is formed for being fixed at a tooth surface (3) by bonding, and which is provided with a guide recess (12, 32, 52) which is formed for receiving a connecting means (4, 24, 44) for coupling neighboring tooth top parts (2, 22, 42) and which passes through the base body (2) in spaced relationship to the tooth support surface (5) along a guiding axis (17). According to the invention, the base body (2) comprises a substantially triangular or circular section shaped cross section (11, 11a, 31, 51) in a cross sectional plane (10) normal to the guiding axis (17).
