Abstract

Conventional braces are a one-size-fits-all solution requiring doctor time to reposition brackets and bend wire to achieve a reasonable finish. Digital indirect bonding has brought conventional braces into the digital world by allowing the orthodontist to optimize bracket positioning. However, perfect bracket positioning commonly fails to achieve all 3 orders of tooth movements, and therefore, wire bending is still needed. For bracket systems to improve, they must be both digital and custom. The goal of the KLOwen custom bracket system is to realize the practice efficiency of a true straight wire system.
