“The ability to 3D print has really allowed us to create our in-house aligner system, and that has allowed me to provide a service for patients. The effect on my practice has been amazing because people want aligners and so many people come here, particularly because we make them ourselves.”

Dr. Lisa Alvetro, DDS, Orthodontist at Alvetro Orthodontics
