The present invention provides improved systems and methods for removably attaching a dental positioning appliance to the dental features of a patient during orthodontic treatment. These appliances function by applying force to specific surfaces of the teeth or dental features to cause directed movement. The application of force is improved by the use of one or more attachment devices which may be positioned on the teeth or dental features to provide the appropriate physical features. Specific design and location of these attachment devices may provide newly achievable and/or more effective repositioning forces, anchoring ability and appliance retention. The systems and methods of the present invention provide the design, production and use of such attachment devices with removable dental positioning appliances in orthodontic treatment. |

A system for repositioning teeth comprises a plurality of individual appliances. The appliances are configured to be placed successively on the patient's teeth and to incrementally reposition the teeth from an initial tooth arrangement, through a plurality of intermediate tooth arrangements, and to a final tooth arrangement. The system of appliances is usually configured at the outset of treatment so that the patient may progress through treatment without the need to have the treating professional perform each successive step in the procedure. |

A virtual model of a dental patient's dentition is provided by obtaining a digital data file of the patient's teeth and orthodontic appliances connected to the teeth, and then combining data from the data file with other data that represents surfaces of the teeth underlying the appliances. The virtual model is useful in preparing a physical model of the patient's current dentition that can be used, for example, to make a dental retainer. Advantageously, the retainer can be fabricated before the orthodontic appliances are disconnected from the patient's teeth and ready for use as soon as the patient's teeth have reached their desired positions in the oral cavity |

本発明は、歯科矯正インプラントに損傷を与える危険を最小限に抑えながら該歯科矯正インプラントを打ち込むための装置および方法を具体化する。 より具体的には、デュアルオプションドライバ(10)が、インプラントのヘッド部分の基部(38)と最上部(36)との両方を使用して歯科矯正インプラント(42)を打ち込むように適合される。 ドライバ(10)が、インプラントヘッド(36)の基部(38)に係合するときには、インプラントヘッド(36)の最上部と対合する保持クリップ(48)により、インプラントとの摩擦嵌めが生じる。 打込みのための主要な力は、基部を通じてネジへと伝えられる。 これは、インプラントヘッドのネック部(40)を大きなトルク力から保護する。 さらに、保持クリップ(48)によって、臨床医が片手だけを使用してインプラント(42)を取り上げることができるようになるので、臨床医は、インプラントに触れる必要がない。 設置された後には、ドライバ(10)は、インプラント(42)のヘッド部分(36)の最上部に係合することによって、該インプラント(42)を調節することができる。 |
