"The future is digital customization. Gone are the days of using an analog bracket with a generic prescription. Lightforce is that breakthrough. Their 3D printing technology allows us to create a fully customized bracket from slot to base, and an individualized patient Rx, which is producing better results in less time."
Dr. Alexander Waldman DMD, MMSc Waldman Orthodontics
“LightForce was perfect for me! I was so excited to be able to undergo the transformative experience of having braces, but with so many added perks and a more effective treatment plan! ”
Holly, LightForce Orthodontics Patient
“Our patients love the color of the Cloud Bracket. It’s not uncommon for a patient to choose this custom bracket system because of the color.”
Dr. Ethan Drake, Drake Orthodontics
"I am not one to quickly jump on new technologies, but the LightForce system was so considerable as a practice differentiator that I incorporated it without hesitation. The digital workflow and full customization allow me to be more efficient, minimizing patient visits while also providing a better overall orthodontic experience."
Dr. Todd M. Welsh, DMD, Bucks County Orthodontics
"We've seen significant efficiency improvements using the LightForce system. The reduction of office visits and overall treatment times have been invaluable. We've been waiting for a technology like this for a long time."
Dr. Andrew Serrano DMD, MPH, Serrano Orthodontics
“I have always seen the value in custom orthodontic treatment and have been quite frustrated in the past with the lack digitization in fixed appliance therapy. After attempting more modular solutions to the problem, I came across Light Force Orthodontics and have not looked back. Utilizing 3D printed braces that are 100% custom initially requires a paradigm shift from how we were traditionally trained, but allows for treatment benefits and efficiencies that are not remotely possible with prefabricated options.
