Abstract

A pre-adjusted self-aligner includes two or more attachments for attaching to teeth with an attachment material, tubes passing through each of the two or more attachments, a free floating wire or cable passing through the tubes, and end caps on free ends of the wire or cable. A method of correcting dental misalignments includes providing a representation of a patient's mouth to a computer for determining a course of treatment. Pre-adjusted self-aligners are created corresponding to stages of treatment. Each pre-adjusted self-aligner is removably attached to a corresponding model of the patient's mouth at intermediate stages. A first pre-adjusted self-aligner is removed from the model and attached to the patient's teeth. The first pre-adjusted self- aligner is removed after a predetermined time. A subsequent pre-adjusted self aligner is installed on the patient's teeth and removed after a specified time. The installing and removing process is repeated until treatment is completed.
