Abstract: An orthodontic apparatus (1; 10) is designed with at least one orthodontically effective element (4; 12) and at least one holding element (5; 13) for holding the apparatus (1; 10) on the jaw, whereby the apparatus (1; 10) is designed in one piece. In a method for producing an orthodontic apparatus, an electronic data set is produced for a three-dimensional model (2) of a jaw to which the apparatus is supposed to be attached. Further, a virtual positioning of one or more orthodontic elements (4; 12) of the apparatus on jaw model (2) takes place. An electronic data set of a three-dimensional model (3; 11) of the apparatus is subsequently produced. The apparatus (1; 10) is then produced by an additive and/or removal production method according to the data set of the apparatus model.
