Research on 3D Technology in Design Method of the Dental Orthodontic Brackets
Abstract
Through 3Dtechnology, exploring a design and manufacture method of the orthodontic brackets with the characteristics of individuation, highly compact degree and high production rate. Methods: By the technology of 3D scanner and Reverse engineering, a new design and manufacturing technology of individual bracket was presented. Firstly, got the 3D scanning data of teeth and then transformed it into the dental CAD models by reverse technology. Secondly, designed customized bracket based on the CAD model. Finally, used 3D printing equipment of selective laser melting to manufacture brackets. Results: 3Dtechnology can be used to design and produce personalized orthodontic brackets effectively. Conclusion: In the design and production of orthodontic brackets,3D technology has more advantages than traditional design and production methods.
