CoreFront's TrueForm Clear Aligner Achieves Medical Certification
CoreFront Inc., headquartered in Shinjuku, Tokyo, has made a significant breakthrough in orthodontics with the recent approval of its TrueForm Clear Aligner. This innovative material has earned Class II medical device certification in Japan, marking a major advancement in the realm of direct print aligners.
The Evolution of Orthodontic Treatments
In recent years, aligner orthodontics have rapidly gained popularity worldwide, moving away from traditional methods of manufacturing dental models to a more advanced approach. Historically, orthodontic aligners were created by pressing pre-formed sheets onto dental molds. However, the arrival of direct print aligners, which are produced directly from 3D printers, has garnered significant attention for its efficiency and customization capabilities.
Despite this technological advancement, the materials available in the market have primarily been imported from overseas, presenting challenges in safety, costs, and functionality. Addressing these issues, CoreFront has developed a proprietary material designed specifically for direct print aligners, effectively tackling these longstanding concerns.
