#$%^&*AU2019222958A120190926.pdf#####ABSTRACT A computationally implemented method includes, but is not limited to determining an incrementally progressive series of adjustment appliances, each of the series of adjustment appliances having geometries selected to progressively reposition teeth; and determining for each of the series of adjustment appliances, a vertical displacement and a forward mandibular position for treating sleep apnea. In addition to the foregoing, other method aspects are described in the claims, drawings, and text forming a part of the present disclosure.4/6 300 Start A 310 Determining an incrementally progressive series of adjustment appliances, each of the series of adjustment appliances having geometries selected to progressively reposition teeth 320 Determining for each of the series of adjustment appliances, a vertical displacement and a forward mandibular position for treating sleep apnea 3201 Determining for each of the series of adjustment appliances, an upper and lower tray adapted to fit tightly but removably over upper and lower teeth such that the lower tray creates the forward mandibular position with respect to the upper tray 3204 Determining a dimension and elasticity for one or more removably attachable elastic bands adapted to connect the upper and lower tray via portrusions on each of the upper and the lower tray such that the elastic bands create the forward mandibular position of the lower tray with respect to the upper tray End FIG. 3
