Zusammenfassung:	Methods and apparatuses for attaching one or more dental attachments to a dentition. Methods may include placing an attachment placement apparatus on the dentition such that contoured surfaces of the attachment placement apparatus are aligned with correspondingly shaped tooth surfaces of the dentition. A body of the attachment placement apparatus may position the dental attachment(s) against specified location(s) on one or more teeth of the dentition. The dental attachment(s) may be coupled to supports that extend from the body. The supports may include breakable regions configured to be broken to facilitate removal of a corresponding dental attachment from the body. The supports may position the dental attachment(s) within corresponding aperture(s) of the attachment placement apparatus. The dental attachment(s) may be secured at the specified location(s) on the teeth.
