Though many markets in GCC are now seeing a higher number of in-person dental consultations being recorded than at the start of the pandemic, the lessons learned from the past two years suggests digital dentistry supports better patient outcomes and provide improved continuity of care for patients in treatment, and also helps dentists and orthodontists improve practice efficiency.

“Commissioning this research and establishing the Advisory Council committee of local experts to highlights how we can integrate a seamless blend of digital technology into our practices to make processes more efficient and convenient for doctors and patients alike. We firmly believe that nothing replaces the personal touch of a medical or dental professional,” says Angelo Maura, GM, Align Technology.

The system will be known as the ‘Invisalign Professional Whitening System – powered by Opalescence’ and will provide the same excellent whitening results and streamlined practice experience that dental professionals have come to expect from the Opalescence PF product during active tooth movement with Invisalign aligners, as well as passive retention with Vivera retainers, will be commercially available globally in 2022.

IDS 2021 attendees – including doctors, lab practitioners, and industry partners – will be able to learn about Align’s innovations, including the Invisalign Go Plus system, the latest addition to general dentists’ portfolio for mild to more complex cases. Attendees will have opportunity to see how digital workflows can be enabled by the Align Digital Platform for the Invisalign system and more.

Align Technology EMEA is looking forward to welcoming attendees and presenters to the second virtual edition of the EMEA Invisalign Scientific Symposium. From the outset, the event scientific team has endeavoured to showcase the best in global research and clinical content which is both robust, and relevant to the orthodontic practitioner.
