The material used to make the braces isn’t all that new the revolutionary part is that what it usually takes a laboratory to do the fabrication can now be done in the clinic as the patient waits. The robot not only bends but produces the necessary high temperatures needed to form the memory alloy which makes up the implement for the alignment process. A robot can make more precise bends and the information regarding the braces is stored and re-adjusted minutely as the treatment progresses with minimal changes or inconvenience. The technology isn’t cheap and so is the treatment so check out your dental insurance for coverage.
