Prompt
Create a small, anatomical orthodontic elastic attachment designed to be integrated directly into a clear aligner, inspired by a rounded button-like shape (similar to an orthodontic elastic button), but optimized for thermoformed aligners. The design must look smooth, organic, and anatomical from the outside, while maintaining simple, safe internal geometry suitable for a 0.8 mm thick aligner. Overall shape: – Rounded, biomimetic, button-like form (oval / teardrop / soft dome) – No sharp edges or narrow necks – Maximum external height: 2.0 mm – Length: ~3.0 mm Elastic retention (safe design): – Use a circular through-hole for elastic engagement – Hole diameter: 1.3–1.4 mm – Hole axis perpendicular to the aligner surface – No closed hooks or aggressive undercuts Base and integration: – Wide, flat or gently curved base surface – Designed for direct Boolean Union with a clear aligner mesh – Smooth filleted transition between the base and the aligner surface Surface and comfort: – All surfaces highly polished and smooth – Minimum fillet radius: 0.4 mm on all edges, including inside the hole – No sharp transitions that could irritate lips or cheeks Manufacturing and biomechanics constraints: – Fully watertight, closed STL mesh – No negative undercuts that would prevent thermoforming – Local reinforced thickness equivalent to 1.4–1.6 mm total material – Designed to resist continuous orthodontic elastic traction without tearing Output requirements: – Export as STL – Units in millimeters – Correct scale (no enlargement) – Ready for direct import into Autodesk Meshmixer with no additional modeling Clinical intent: – Orthodontic elastic attachment for Class II or Class III mechanics – Vestibular placement on clear aligners – Anatomical, low-profile, patient-friendly design
