    摘要: A first appliance and a second appliance comprise engagement surfaces that provide mandibular relocation forces and forces to limit lateral movement of the jaw, such as opposing inclined surfaces on opposite sides of the mouth. In some embodiments, engagement surfaces between oral appliances comprise a curvature difference, which allows engagement at differing angles and positions.

    摘要: Aligner attachment placement devices for placing one or more aligner attachments on teeth. The placement devices can include registration anchors, retention supports, an aligner attachment, and an attachment frame that at least partially surrounds a perimeter of the aligner attachment. The registration anchors can have occlusal contact surfaces that are shaped to register with occlusal surfaces of one or more teeth. The retention supports can have lingual contact surfaces that are shaped to register with lingual surfaces of one or more teeth. The aligner attachments can be shaped to interact with one or more aligners to impart forces on one or more of the teeth. The placement device can include multiple aligner attachments. The attachment frame can include one or more struts that frangibly connect the aligner attachment(s) to the attachment frame.
