An orthodontic appliance is constructed from shells shaped to receive teeth. The shells can be constructed from one or more polymer materials and affixed to one another about the edge of each shell, defining a narrow elongate chamber therebetween. The chamber serves to allow for the first shell contacting the teeth to flex and fit a wide range of teeth without sacrificing the overall flexural modulus of the appliance. Methods of making the appliance are also described.

Elastic orthodontic appliances, systems, and methods for use

An orthodontic appliance shaped to receive teeth. The orthodontic appliance can be constructed from a laminate structure with an outer transparent layer and an inner translucent layer. The translucent layer can scatter light to decrease a relative degree or perceived gloss to the human eye, and hence provide a more natural appearance to the orthodontic appliance.
