ABSTRACT:
The fragranced orthodontic appliance and method of making the same utilizes a fragranced "cold cure" acrylic. The method comprises the steps of combining fragrancing oils in a predetermined ratio with a monomer liquid. The monomer is then combined in a conventional manner with a polymer to form a hard acrylic orthodontic appliance. The appliance includes a hard cold cure acrylic base member which is formed from a suitable powdered polymeric component and a liquid monomeric component, the liquid monomeric component containing a selected fragrancing oil therein. The method comprises the steps of admixing an effective amount of fragrancing oil with a liquid monomeric component and then admixing the resulting mixture with an effective amount of a powdered polymeric component to form an acrylic base member. Hardware is then embedded in the acrylic base member.
