Abstract

After 20 months of clinical testing and more than 600 bonded arches, brief interim conclusions can be drawn on treatment with a new lingual bracket system, one that differs fundamentally from conventional appliances in both design and manufacture. The demand for maximum individuality is met by using state-of-the-art computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing technology to fuse the 2 normally separate processes of bracket fabrication and bracket positioning. Both the brackets and the pertinent archwires are customized. Additional advantages of the system include direct and thus simplified rebonding in the event of bracket loss, more precise finishing, and enhanced patient comfort.
