Othrodontics TRIZ Cases
- Rotary Dental Aligner Thermoforming With Sensor-Guided Heating
A rotary multi-station thermoformer uses contactless heating feedback and automatic transfer to cut operator time and improve aligner consistency.
- Light-Based Aligner Seating to Improve Fit Without Chewies
Low-level laser or LED light temporarily softens aligners, improving seating and fit while avoiding jaw soreness and aligner damage.
- Mandibular Advancement Appliance Geometry for Tooth Force Control
Cavity geometry redistributes mandibular advancement forces toward posterior teeth to treat sleep apnea with less tooth repositioning and discomfort.
- Methods for fabricating mouth guard systems
Resilient mouth guard structures absorb impact while accommodating aligners and changing tooth positions during orthodontic treatment.
- Aesthetic Dental Aligners With Masked Tooth Appearance
Integrated mask regions let aligners mimic the target tooth arrangement, improving appearance, confidence, and treatment compliance.
- Single-Layer PET-G TPU Films for Clear, Durable Dental Appliances
Blending PET-G and TPU into single-layer films improves clarity, flexibility, and durability while avoiding delamination in dental appliances.
- Miscible Polyester Blends for Clear, Force-Persistent Dental Aligners
A miscible amorphous-elastomer polyester blend keeps dental aligners clear, crack-resistant, and force-persistent in hydrated oral use.
- Self-Retaining Occlusal Splint With Flexible Snap-On Prongs
Flexible prongs snap onto dental arches to retain an occlusal splint without wires while limiting tooth coverage.
- Dental Thermoforming Model Separation Without Film Damage
A puller engages a stop between the dental model and film, drawing the model through a removal opening without chemical or mechanical modification.
