Abstract

Systems and methods for fabricating indirect bonding trays are disclosed. Digital models of a patient's teeth can be created with digital brackets positioned on the digital model of a patient's teeth. Digital models of indirect bonding trays can be created to retain and transfer the brackets. The indirect bonding trays can be 3-D printed with wells that the functional brackets can be placed into and thereafter transferred to the patient. The 3-D printed indirect bonding tray can comprise two resins, with one resin forming the tray and another resin forming a functional feature.
