Grand Rapids, Michigan, December 6, 2017 – OrVance® has launched OrthoDots® CLEAR, which now has the highly desired benefit of being transparent. Its flagship product OrthoDots® was launched back in 2015 as a more effective solution than traditional dental wax. OrthoDots® was the first product to combine a proprietary moisture activated adhesive with a medical grade silicone for a longer lasting and more comfortable solution.
“In less than 6 months, our previous generation of OrthoDots® quickly became an Amazon Choice product as the #1 alternative to traditional dental wax, so we know there is a high patient demand out there for something better than dental wax,” said Ron Schutt, President of OrVance®. “And when we asked our customers what we could do to make the product even better, the overwhelming feedback was that they also wanted a more transparent solution. OrthoDots®
CLEAR solves that problem and is now at least 17 times more transparent than the leading dental wax products on the market.”
Dr. Mike Silver, Director of Technical Affairs and R&D for OrVance®, added, “We’ve always had transparency identified as an ideal feature, but it presented a substantial R&D challenge to provide a transparent solution while also achieving the goal of sticking and staying in place better than traditional dental wax. But because of the high-demand from our customers, we went back into the lab and figured it out. With OrthoDots® CLEAR, we now have the best solution on the market for all the top features patients desire: It sticks onto wet surfaces and stays in place, is the most malleable & comfortable product on the market, and is now also transparent.”
“We all know that more invisible treatment options are a major trend in our industry due to the demand from our patients for more aesthetically pleasing treatment solutions,” said Dr. Eric Hannapel, practicing Orthodontist and Co-Founder of OrVance®. “Now that OrthoDots® are also transparent, we’re confident that more practices will switch to OrthoDots® CLEAR from traditional dental wax to maximize patient comfort and satisfaction.”
OrthoDots® CLEAR are now available to practices from select suppliers, and patients can purchase directly on amazon.com. Learn where to buy here and learn more about OrthoDots CLEAR here.
