As clear aligner therapy advances, OrthoFX leads with AirFlex with PrecisionFinish Aligners — delivering enhanced predictability, effortless compliance and precise finishing control.
One persistent challenge in aligner therapy is achieving accurate, predictable results in the final stages before retention. PrecisionFinish Aligners address this directly: they are automatically integrated in every AirFlex case — at no extra cost or steps — covering the final four stages of comprehensive (FXFull) plans or the final two in shorter treatment plans. Built into the treatment from the start, they provide targeted precision for optimal detailing, alignment and esthetics.
At the core of this innovation is TruForce Delivery, a sustained force-control system that keeps PrecisionFinish Aligners active throughout each stage. Unlike conventional aligners, which apply high initial force but quickly become passive, these finishing aligners maintain consistent, optimal forces to optimize final tooth movements, detailing, alignment and esthetics — empowering clinicians to finish cases with greater confidence and fewer surprises.
The PrecisionFinish innovation rests on the AirFlex system's core strengths: tackling patient compliance, comfort and predictability.
Flexible wear time for effortless compliance
AirFlex is the only FDA-cleared aligner system for at least nine to 12 hours of continuous daily wear* — up to 50 percent less than traditional aligners. This flexibility fits seamlessly into busy patient lifestyles, boosting adherence without compromising outcomes or extending treatment.
Enhanced comfort for better wear
Made from proprietary HyperElastic polymer, AirFlex Aligners apply gentle, biologically optimal forces. Insertion forces drop dramatically — by approximately 8.4× vs. industry standards — while ensuring a precise fit that reduces unseating, non-wear relapse and refinement needs.
Proven predictability and efficiency
Together, reduced wear time and superior comfort yield exceptional results: 89 percent of AirFlex cases finish with one or fewer refinements vs. just 28 percent for industry-standard aligners.** Fewer refinements cut treatment time, eliminate unnecessary office visits and improve patient satisfaction.
By combining FDA-cleared flexible wear, advanced comfort, proven predictability and final-stage precision, AirFlex with PrecisionFinish Aligners sets a new standard in clear aligner therapy — empowering clinicians to deliver confident, quality finishes.
