- Dr. Melissa Shotell, the orthodontist known as alignerbee, discusses the new release of Graphy's first 3D printed clear aligner meant for direct 3D printing!!
It has been an exciting time for 3D printing in dentistry, but we have all been waiting for the "proverbial holy grail" of printing - directly printing clear aligners. Traditional clear aligners need to be manufactured by printing sequential models of tooth movements, then vacuum forming template over each model. While this process is predictable and produces a high quality aligner, it is costly and time consuming.
Enter directly printing aligners... wow! Check out this video on Dr. Shotell's thoughts of where we are currently and the future of printing in orthodontics.

This is quite interesting! Looking forward to seeing more of this product! Thanks for the presentation.
This will be the next revolution in clear aligner technology
Great Presentation, good to have to know the state of the art. However, PET -G is no longer the preferred material for aligners. The leading aligner brands use a composite, multilayer material made by co - extrusion. Only 3 companies have this for commercial sales: Baymaterials-Straumann, Scheu and the Tristar company. So far, only composite multilayer materials have proven cases for root translation. (I did not mention Invisalign because Smart track is not available for commercial sales)
It’s great!
Great innovation 👌
One of the best youtube videos I have seen 😍
what software is used to control the thickness to apply different forces in fabricating these aligners?
Another game changer
Where can we buy tera harz TC-85DAC?
What is the brand of White color printer in this?
Newbie question. Are you saying that resins from manufacturers and big brands (FormLabs, Asiga, Keystone, NextDent etc.) Are not sufficient to print aligners directly?
None of them currently have a resin with the characteristics to directly print aligners. Those companies have resins for printing models and from those models you can thermoform an aligner which is great but is more time intensive.
@@steved7406 yes they have resins to print direct aligners but expensives.
@@ANDRESBELLO-autor Hi Andres, can you provide me some links to those manufacturer's resins that are suitable for direct printing of aligners? Thanks.
Link of company and how we get this resin
incredible
Wonderful...

I have this on right now and honestly I rather use the older metal ones.. Uncomfortable, unreasonable extremely expensive, they permanently glue a metal hook behind your bottom teeth, and overall higiene. I clean mines at least 5 times a day. The only convenience is for the dentist to make a whole bunch of money really. I paid $500 each pair and I have 2.
