A method for producing a patient-specific pad (3) for a modular bracket (1) having a pad (3) and a bracket body (7), which comprises the steps: P1 a) providing a pad material section, which preferably is plane,b) providing a punch having at least one punching stamp for punching out at least one raw pad (5) from the pad material section,c) punching out of at least one raw pad (5) from the pad material section by means of the punch,d) generating a patient-specific set-up, in particular made of plaster, of the teeth to be treated of an upper jaw and/or of a lower jaw of a patient,e) selecting a raw pad (5) from the raw pad library (19) for each of the patients teeth to be treated,f) filling a gap (27) between the raw pad (5) and the corresponding tooth in the set-up using a filling material, especially of plastic, in order to produce for the pad (3) a tooth-specific glued surface (3K) allow for a form fit to the clinical tooth of the patient.
