A system and method for repositioning teeth in a patient jaw includes an attachment bonded to a tooth. The attachment has at least one force receiving component for receiving a force. A polymeric shell repositioning appliance is positioned over at least some of the teeth in the patient jaw. The polymeric shell has at least one force transmitting component for engaging the force receiving component to form a locus of engagement. The locus of engagement transmits the force and moves but is maintained as the tooth is repositioned. In specific embodiments the locus of engagement is maintained over a substantial range of motion. The force transmitted at the locus of engagement increases in response to the tooth lagging an intended position. A space between the positioned appliance and the tooth permits the tooth to move into an intended position. 1. A computer-implemented method for fabricating a teeth repositioning appliance , the method comprising:receiving a digital representation of: at least one of a patient's teeth, and a modified attachment bonded to the tooth;generating a positive mold of the tooth and the modified attachment; andforming a teeth repositioning appliance over the positive mold.2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the teeth repositioning appliance includes at least one force-transmitting component for placement over a patient's teeth so that the force-transmitting component engages a force-receiving component bonded to at least one of the patient's teeth at a contact point within a locus of engagement claim 1 , wherein a position of the contact point adjusts within the locus of engagement as the tooth is repositioned so that the force transmitted to said tooth increases if the tooth lags its intended position.3. The computer-implemented method of claim 2 , wherein the digital representation of the modified attachment is a modified version of an attachment bonded to the tooth.4. The computer-implemented method of claim 3 , wherein ...
