Frequently Asked Questions
We know starting any dental treatment comes with questions. That’s why we’ve gathered the most common ones about Hype Aligners, our technology, and your experience. Get the clarity you need to move forward with confidence.
What is memory shape resin, and how does it benefit my patients?
Memory shape resin, like the one developed by Graphy, has elastic properties that help aligners return to their original programmed shape. This delivers more consistent force over time, resulting in more predictable tooth movement and potentially fewer refinements.
How are these aligners different from conventional thermoformed aligners?
Unlike traditional aligners cut from flat sheets, these are directly 3D printed using
memory shape resin. This results in better fit, higher precision, and greater control over
thickness and force distribution.
Will this technology reduce my chair time or treatment planning time?
Ja. Het vormgeheugeneffect zorgt ervoor dat de behandelkracht tussen afspraken behouden blijft, waardoor ongeplande aanpassingen worden verminderd en u tijd bespaart. Het maakt behandelingen met veel minder of helemaal geen opzetstukken mogelijk. Bovendien ondersteunt ons team u één-op-één bij de caseplanning.
How does the doctor-to-doctor support work?
U werkt rechtstreeks samen met een klinisch adviseur (een collega-tandarts of orthodontist) die u helpt bij het beoordelen en verfijnen van elk behandelplan. U staat er dus nooit alleen voor om uw behandelplannen te plannen.
Is special equipment required in my office?
No special in-office equipment is required. You just need to send digital scans or
impressions; the aligners are manufactured using our certified 3D printing process and
shipped to you.
Are the aligners safe and biocompatible?
Yes. The Graphy resin we use is CE certified and meets international safety standards
for medical use.
What makes these aligners different from regular ones?
They’re made from an advanced memory shape resin that keeps its force over time,
which can mean fewer unexpected changes and a smoother treatment journey.
Will they feel different to wear?
Patients say these aligners feel snug and comfortable because they’re
custom-printed directly to your teeth, rather than being thermoformed from plastic
sheets.
Are they clear and discreet?
Absolutely. They are highly transparent and stain-resistant, so they stay clear
throughout your treatment.
Will treatment be faster?
The treatment speed itself depends on your case, but the improved control and
reduced need for refinements can shorten the overall treatment time in many cases.
