Problem
Traditional clear dental aligners, while effective for teeth alignment, can restrict saliva and oxygen flow, leading to a pH drop in the mouth and creating an environment conducive to bacterial growth, plaque accumulation, and bad breath. The prolonged contact of aligners with teeth can raise oral hygiene concerns.
Solution
Actival addresses the limitations of conventional aligners with its Active Aligners, which integrate microfluidic channels via patented 3D printing technology. These channels facilitate natural saliva flow and are pre-filled with antibacterial fluid, fluoride, and a customizable flavor. This approach actively combats bacterial buildup, promotes healthy teeth, and freshens breath, transforming the orthodontic experience by prioritizing both effective alignment and optimal oral health. The aligners are designed to be cost-effective, ensuring top-tier dental services while optimizing resources and maximizing profitability for dental practices.
