Clear aligners have exploded in popularity — and patients increasingly expect them to be available through their local dentist. But for many general dental practitioners (GDPs), offering aligners still feels out of reach. Complex treatment planning, time-consuming training, and the risk of poor tracking or failed cases can act as major blockers.
At Vitaware, we believe clear aligner treatment should be as accessible for GDPs as it is desirable for patients. That’s why we built OrthoLab™, the UK’s first fully chairside, AI-powered aligner system — purposefully designed to remove complexity, save time, and let GDPs stay in control.
Treatment planning has traditionally required specialist orthodontic training or support from a remote technician. OrthoLab flips that on its head.
Our software automates:
This reduces the learning curve dramatically — so you don’t need to rely on external labs or send cases off to be planned. It’s everything you need, right there in the surgery.
Unlike other aligner systems that claim to automate treatment planning, OrthoLab applies robust clinical backstops and assesses hundreds of treatment parameters to optimise outcomes, replicating the clinical decision making methodology of an expert orthodontist.
OrthoLab empowers GDPs to:
When patients can see and discuss their treatment plan in real time, they’re far more likely to say yes. With OrthoLab, you can explain treatment in simple terms, show real visual outcomes, and build trust on the spot — no need for a second consult.
We’ve partnered with ALS Dental, the UK’s largest orthodontic lab, to manufacture our aligners right here in the UK. That means faster turnaround, regulatory peace of mind, and no surprises.
Plus, our in-house UK specialists support your cases and keep treatment quality high — without ever taking control away from you.
Whether you’re new to clear aligners or looking to grow your offering, OrthoLab makes it simple, safe, and profitable to get started.
