DIGITAL DENTISTRY LEARNING HUB

What if a patient could say yes to clear aligner treatment and start wearing their first aligners before the end of the day?

For years, bringing clear aligner production in-house has followed essentially the same process.

Digital orthodontic workflows have evolved rapidly over the past several years. Between intraoral scanning, cloud-based treatment planning, and in-office 3D printing, many practices are now producing retainers faster and more efficiently than ever before.

Here at Voxel, we've watched, evaluated, and tested for ourselves the very best in dental tech. Sometimes, major innovations come with lofty promises to doctors - and it's important doctors are aware of the potential upsides but aware of any changes in workflows.

That's why we are so meticulous in our evaluations, so we know when we decide to partner with a manufacturer and sell their products - we can be confident our customers are getting the very best.

Enter LuxCreo, an innovative 3D printing manufacturer that is making waves in this "direct print" world - empowering dentists to create custom clear aligners in-house at an affordable cost. In fact, they lay the claim to be the first FDA cleared 510 (K) class II direct print aligner workflow.

Three words have been all the rage in ortho lately: "Direct Print Aligners". But, is the future here today?

The following is a recap of the August 2024 webinar"Direct-Printed Appliances - The Future is Here". Featuring speaker Dr. Neil Warshawsky, a Chicago-based Orthodontist and practice owner of Get It Straight Orthodontics who uses the LuxCreo ecosystem for same-day direct-print aligners in his practice.

In the ever-evolving field of orthodontics, technological advancements continue to reshape traditional practices, offering new ways to enhance precision, efficiency, and patient outcomes.

When the Voxel team got back from the AAO 2024 in New Orleans, it was abundantly clear - direct print aligners are all the rage. The technology capable of completing a clear aligner case with a same-day turnaround - without sacrificing quality - is now a reality thanks to manufacturing excellence with brands like LuxCreo.

In the ever-evolving field of orthodontics, innovation in material technology plays a crucial role in advancing treatment efficacy and patient comfort.
