SmileDirectClub Introduces Aligners with Comfort Sense™
January 13 2021 - 7:00AM
SmileDirectClub, Inc. (Nasdaq: SDC), the next generation oral care
company with the first medtech platform for teeth straightening,
today introduced SmileDirectClub Aligners with Comfort Sense™
technology, designed to make clear aligner treatment more
comfortable and tooth movement more predictable. This Smile
Advancement is one of the Company’s numerous telehealth innovations
and patents driving the future of oral care.
Comfort Sense technology features the Company’s patented laser
technology that precision-cuts aligners for a smoother fit, which,
combined with the variable thicknesses of the aligners and
doctor-prescribed and monitored treatment plans that start with
lighter movements to ease customers into treatment all result in a
more comfortable fit and treatment for customers from start to
finish. Comfort Sense technology will be used in all
SmileDirectClub Aligners and Nighttime Aligners. All
SmileDirectClub Aligners are made of BPA-free materials and have a
matte finish to match the appearance of natural teeth.
“One of the primary concerns people have when considering
whether to straighten their teeth is if the process will be
uncomfortable or painful,” said Dr. Jeffrey Sulitzer, Chief
Clinical Officer, SmileDirectClub. “The Comfort Sense technology
used to manufacture our aligners helps ease customers into
treatment more comfortably by using a next generation of laser
technology and by gradually increasing the thickness of the aligner
to safely and gently move teeth. This makes it easier for patients
to follow the wear requirements of their doctor-prescribed
treatment plans and get the smile they’ve always wanted.”
SmileDirectClub is the largest vertically integrated clear
aligner company that manufactures all of its aligners in the U.S.
The company’s state-of-the-art FDA-certified and registered
Tennessee manufacturing facility features one of the largest fleets
of 3D printers in North America. SmileDirectClub's aligner system
is specifically designed for treatment using its groundbreaking
telehealth platform, delivering an innovative method for safely and
gently straightening smiles without needing buttons, attachments or
teeth filings. Thanks to advancements in its second-generation
manufacturing technology, SmileDirectClub is now able to produce
aligners more efficiently and with greater precision than ever
before.
“SmileDirectClub pioneered the future of teeth straightening by
creating the first telehealth solution for giving customers a smile
they love," said Josh Chapman, Chief Brand Officer,
SmileDirectClub. “With the introduction of our Comfort Sense
technology, not only is SmileDirectClub more accessible, affordable
and convenient than other options, but we also make one of the most
advanced and comfortable aligners in the world.”
Since launching in the U.S. in 2014, SmileDirectClub has become
one of the fastest-growing health technology companies and
continues to be the leading telehealth platform for orthodontia,
serving well over one million customers around the world.
