To move patient's teeth to a position where the teeth function optimally and are also aesthetically pleasing.
A method for fabricating a dental template to position an object on a patient's tooth includes the steps of: preparing a model of the patient's tooth; adding objects to predetermined positions on the tooth model; and fabricating the dental template to locate the object at the position on the patient's tooth. The dental template supports positioning the object on the patient's tooth oriented in such a way that all the objects as a whole are lined up to a user-defined ideal arrangement. The method for fabricating the template includes: digitizing the patient's teeth; adding virtual objects to predetermined locations on the digitized teeth; and fabricating the dental template to locate the object on the patient's teeth.
