ABSTRACT:
A computerized method of designing custom orthodontic appliances based on the individual anatomy of the individual patient is used in a further method of statistically processing the appliance design parameters to produce standardized appliances, particularly orthodontic brackets, for patient groups or classes of patients that share certain features of dental anatomy, common treatment problems or similar preferred treatment goals. Standardized brackets are provided in various combinations for patients of racial or other anthropological groups, including bracket combinations and bracket sets for Asian patients and for Caucasian patients. Methods for treating patients and providing group specific appliances to patients are also provided.
