LightForce Orthodontics

Health Tech & Medtech · Burlington, United States · Founded 2015

A digital platform providing orthodontists with fully customized, 3D printed tooth-moving tools MoreLess

LightForce Orthodontics is a startup that operates in the dental industry, specifically in the orthodontics segment. The company's primary offering is a unique, fully personalized 3D printed orthodontic bracket, which is essentially a type of dental brace. This product is designed to fit the individual tooth morphology of each patient, providing better bond strength and complete freedom of motion.

In addition to the 3D printed braces, LightForce also offers fully personalized Indirect Bonding (IDB) trays, known as LightTrays. These are patient-specific trays that are also 3D printed from a proprietary material. The IDB trays allow the clinical team to bond each bracket quickly and accurately, without the need for the doctor's time. However, these bonding jigs are only available for LightForce braces.

The company operates through a web-based platform that allows clinicians to create, adjust, and approve treatment plans quickly and easily. This platform, known as LightPlan, gives clinicians complete control over every aspect of the treatment plan, empowering them at every step of the process.

LightForce Orthodontics' business model is based on selling these personalized 3D printed braces and IDB trays to dental clinics and orthodontists. The company makes money by charging for these products and the use of their web-based platform.
