Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a suitable embedded function and method of a dental appliance.
SOLUTION: Traditional orthodontic treatment involves the use of basic repositioning devices and the use of supplementary devices, components or accessories to achieve desired end results. The components may be mounted on fixed, non-removable devices or they may be part of a removable appliance normally mounted prior to the application of the fixed devices. With traditional treatment, it may be desired to utilize similar components when repositioning teeth with removable elastic repositioning appliances. Due to the nature of elastic appliances, the components may take a variety of forms ranging from readily available traditional accessories to specially created devices.

解决方案:传统的正畸治疗包括使用基本的重新定位装置以及使用辅助装置,部件或附件来实现期望的最终结果。 组件可以安装在固定的不可移动设备上,或者它们可以是在施加固定设备之前通常安装的可移动设备的一部分。 通过传统的治疗,当用可拆卸的弹性重新定位装置重新定位牙齿时,可能需要使用类似的部件。 由于弹性电器的性质,组件可以采用各种形式,从易于使用的传统配件到特殊创建的设备。 版权所有(C)2008,JPO&INPIT

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an improved system and a method for removably attaching a dental positioning appliance. SOLUTION: The improved system and the method are for removably attaching the dental positioning appliance 105 to the dental features of a patient during orthodontic treatment. The appliance 105 is preferable over conventional braces for its comfort, appearance, and easiness. The appliance 105 functions by applying force to specific surfaces of teeth or the dental feathers 103 as a cause for direct movement. However, the level of the force applied, or the type of movement, is usually dependent on the surface characteristics and the position of the dental features 103. This aspect is inadequate to provide a sufficient anchoring or to impart a considerable force on the teeth 103 to be repositioned. Such limitations may be reduced by use of one or more attachment devices which may be positioned to the teeth or the dental features 103 to provide appropriate physical features.

Abstract translation: 要解决的问题:提供一种用于可移除地附接牙科定位器具的改进的系统和方法。 解决方案:改进的系统和方法用于在正畸治疗期间将牙科定位器具105可拆卸地附接到患者的牙齿特征。 为了其舒适性,外观和容易性,设备105优于常规的支架。 作为直接移动的原因,器具105通过对牙齿或牙科毛皮103的特定表面施加力而起作用。 然而,施加的力的水平或运动的类型通常取决于牙齿特征103的表面特性和位置。该方面不足以提供足够的锚定或在齿103上施加相当大的力 被重新定位。 可以通过使用一个或多个附接装置来减少这种限制,所述附接装置可被定位到牙齿或牙齿特征103以提供适当的物理特征。 版权所有(C)2008,JPO&INPIT

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an improved dental appliance system and a method for using, fabricating the improved appliance. SOLUTION: This appliance 100 includes a polymer overlay or shell 102 having a teeth-receiving cavity 120 formed therein. This dental appliance 100 has the necessary stiffness or strength to firmly secure the appliance 100 on the teeth and provide controlled force required for repositioning the teeth, until such time as removal of the appliance 100 is desired. This appliance 100 may be configured for use with a removal mechanism which provides for selective release of the appliance 100 from the teeth as the removal mechanism undergoes a state change stimulated by an environmental stimulus or environmental switch.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an improved method and system to reposition teeth from an initial tooth arrangement to a final tooth arrangement. SOLUTION: This is a system for repositioning teeth comprising a plurality of individual appliances. The appliances are configured to be placed successively on a 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 the appliances is usually configured at the outset of treatment so that the patient may progress through treatment without the need to have a treating professional perform each successive step in the procedure.
