“We are at the beginning of a complete transformation of the way in which orthodontic appliances are fabricated,” said Darren Buddemeyer, president of DynaFlex. “Every orthodontist has been contemplating digital scanners for model storage and/or analysis for some time now. What most have been waiting for is an affordable way not only to remove plaster models from their practice but also alginate. That time has finally arrived.”
