HELSINKI, Finland: Planmeca, one of the world’s leading dental equipment manufacturers, has announced that the Planmeca Emerald intra-oral scanner can now be used to produce the transparent aligners manufactured and marketed by Ortho Caps for teenagers and adults. Dentists can thus produce these dental appliances through a completely digital process, saving time and improving patient satisfaction, according to both companies. This collaboration furthers the aims of both Planmeca and Ortho Caps to improve user experience and offer a smooth workflow.
After scanning of the upper and lower arches, as well as the patient’s bite, the scans can be sent directly to Ortho Caps for the design and manufacture of orthocaps aligners.
“We are very happy to work with Ortho Caps that has a long history of producing aligners and many pioneering innovations, such as the TwinAligner system. Their system is one of the most advanced solutions on the clear aligner market and with our integrated workflow, the users can really reap the benefits of digitalisation,” said Ville Salonen, Orthodontic Product Line and Business Development Manager at Planmeca.
“Ortho Caps GmbH is pleased to announce the successful validation of the Planmeca Emerald intra-oral scanner for the submission of new orthocaps cases as well as for our treatment evaluation workflow. I personally had the opportunity to visit the Planmeca manufacturing facility in Helsinki and was greatly impressed by the high product quality standards as well as the dedication of the company’s staff, which is so important in manufacturing quality products,” added Dr Wajeeh Khan, who is the founder and Managing Director of Ortho Caps, located in Hamm in Germany.
