At present, the main processing modes of the ceramic orthodontic bracket comprise slip casting and dry pressing.
The slip casting is to select proper dispergator to make the powder material suspend in the solution evenly, then to pour into the water-absorbing model after mixing into slurry to absorb water, finally to sinter and form at high temperature or low temperature. However, the orthodontic bracket prepared by the forming method has low precision, bubbles are easily formed in the blank body and are not easy to discharge, so that the blank body is cracked, and the process is complicated and is not suitable for batch production.
Dry pressing is a more common green body forming method in ceramic production, and is characterized by adding a small amount of adhesive into powder material to make granulation, then placing the granulated material into a mould, pressing on a press machine to make the powder particles approach each other in the mould, and firmly combining them by means of internal friction force so as to finally form a green body with a certain shape. However, dry pressing has large abrasion to the die, complex processing mode and high cost, and can only press up and down during pressing, so that the pressure distribution is not uniform, the density is not uniform, the shrinkage is not uniform, and phenomena such as cracking, layering and the like are often generated.
In addition, the two molding modes have high cost, long production period and low precision, and the bracket produced by the two molding modes is standardized production due to the complex tooth surface form, has low matching degree with the tooth binding surface and cannot meet the personalized customization of patients.
