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, wherein the apparatus (1；10) is designed in one piece. In a method for manufacturing an orthodontic apparatus, an electronic data set is produced for a three-dimensional model (2) of a jaw to which the apparatus is 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.
