Embodiment Construction

[0025] figure 1 A method 100 is shown for forming an orthodontic bracket 102 (hereinafter an orthodontic bracket) from a length of material such as a workpiece 104 according to a first embodiment of the method, illustrating steps (A) through ( F). In the exemplary embodiment, the orthodontic bracket 102 is self-locking and the workpiece 104 is made of beta (β) titanium alloy (Ti59-Nb36-Ta2 which is nickel-free and characterized by low Young's modulus and high tensile strength. -Zr2-O) composition. Specifically, Ti59-Nb36-Ta2-Zr2-O exhibits a Young's modulus in the range of 40 to 60 gigapascals (GPa), which is significantly lower than that of conventional steel in the range of approximately 200 GPa quantity.

[0026] In order to facilitate the description of the embodiment, it will be combined with Figure 2A to Figure 2H describe method 100 together, Figure 2A to Figure 2H depicts based on figure 1 Various stages of the method 100 for machining the workpiece 104 to form...

Abstract

The present invention provides a method and a device for forming an orthodontic bracket, especially to a method and device for forming an orthodontic bracket along with an orthodontic arc wire. The method and device relate to: shaping a basal member and at least two expansion parts with a section of materials, the basal member is arranged between two arm members and the corresponding expansion parts, the depth of each expansion part is larger than that of the basal member; bending the section of material on the corresponding expansion part; and mould-pressing the corresponding expansion part to enable one part of each arm member is limited for receiving a portion of communication of the orthodontic bracket.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to a method and apparatus for forming orthodontic brackets. Background technique [0002] For people who suffer from oral problems related to teeth and jaw defects such as misaligned teeth or a misaligned bite, achieving a mouthful of perfectly aligned teeth often means having to wear orthodontic appliances for a long time (or braces as they are commonly called) to correct those problems. [0003] Braces involve the use of dental cement to secure orthodontic brackets (conventional or self-ligating) as attachments to the surface of the teeth to facilitate application of orthodontic archwires and / or other aids through the brackets Use force to gradually move the teeth into their ideal position. An example of a self-locking bracket is described in WO2005 / 044131. However, there is no cost-effective method of manufacturing such orthodontic brackets. [0004] It is an object of the present invention to provide a method of f...
