    Abstract: Dental attachment system and methods. A template body may be configured to fit over a patient's dentition and include a dental attachment. The attachment may include an attachment body including an affixing surface configured to interface with a light curable adhesive coating for bonding the dental attachment to a tooth. The attachment body may include an engagement surface configured to engage with a dental appliance. A release layer may cover the engagement surface. The system may include one or more radiation sources configured to emit a first range of wavelengths of radiation for curing the light curable adhesive coating of the dental attachment. The one or more radiation sources may be configured to emit a second range of wavelengths of radiation for degrading the release layer such that the release layer can be removed from the dental attachment to expose the engagement surface.

    Abstract: Systems and methods including expandable dental appliances. The expandable dental appliances may include left and right portions that are distinct and separate parts, and that may be coupled by a sliding expansion feature configured to laterally translate the left and right portions toward or away from each other. Each of the left and right portions may include a palatal region and a tooth engagement region that are customized to respective left and right sides of a patient's upper dental arch. Systems may include multiple non-expandable dental appliances that are configured to be worn sequentially over the patient's upper dental arch to expand the patient's palate over corresponding stages of a treatment plan.

    Abstract: Improved systems, methods, and devices for treating sleep apnea are provided herein. In one aspect, an intraoral appliance for treating sleep apnea in a patient comprises an appliance shell comprising a plurality of cavities shaped to receive teeth of a jaw of the patient. The appliance shell can comprise an advancement structure arranged to interact with an opposing jaw of the patient so as to displace the lower jaw anteriorly relative to the upper jaw. The plurality of cavities can comprise cavity geometries shaped to reduce repositioning of one or more received teeth elicited by displacement of the lower jaw anteriorly relative to the upper jaw.
