An Exclusive Webinar with Dr. Alex Lin
Discover the science behind LuxCreo's revolutionary ActiveMemory™ Polymer - a material engineered to deliver precise, consistent force, and predictable tooth movement with fewer attachments.
The Problem: Why Traditional Aligner Cases Go Off-Track
Orthodontics has made huge strides, but most aligner systems still rely on visible attachments for predictable tooth movement. Conventional thermoformed aligners suffer from inherent drawbacks like permanent deformation and rapid force decay, leading to compromised treatment predictability. This means more refinements, more chair time, and a less-than-ideal patient experience.
The Solution: A Smarter Material for Smarter Movement
The problem isn't your treatment plan—it's the plastic. ActiveMemory™ polymer represents a new era in orthodontic materials. Unlike conventional plastics that deform or early shape memory polymers that soften at body temperature , ActiveMemory™ is engineered for thermomechanical stability. Its unique dual-mechanism allows it to deliver consistent orthodontic force while allowing for a full "reset" of its shape and force via daily thermal activation.
What You Will Learn in This Webinar:
Join Dr. Alex Lin to explore the science and clinical applications of this groundbreaking technology.
Key Takeaways:
- What exactly is ActiveMemory™ Polymer, and how does it revolutionize aligner materials?
- How does ActiveMemory™ Polymer “reset” your aligner’s force and shape back to its original state?
- Clinically speaking, what advantages does this self-resetting capability deliver for treatment outcomes?
About Your Host
Dr. Alex Lin
University of Pennsylvania, MS in oral biology (orthodontics),
National Taiwan University, DDS
Dr. Lin completed his orthodontic residency at the University of Pennsylvania where he also received a MS degree in oral biology. His research focused on using finite element analysis to evaluate asymmetry after surgically assisted rapid palatal expansion (SARPE). He also coauthored several articles in peer reviewed journals, one of which was awarded David L. Turpin Award for Evidence-Based Research by AJODO. Dr. Lin now practices in Taipei, Taiwan and is an enthusiastic user of direct print aligners.
