Abstract
A design and manufacturing process uses flat sheets with outline shapes cut into the metal to manufacture orthodontic parts in laminate form. These sheets are aligned and stacked together, tack welded and brazed together in a flat form or may be bent together and then brazed. The process may be used to produce either commonly used conventional orthodontic brackets or very complicated shapes required for difficult applications.
