CHICAGO, October 18, 2025 — LuxCreo, a global innovator in personalized medical and dental devices, announced that it has received a strategic investment from Angelalign Technology Inc., a leading global provider of clear aligner solutions. Through this investment, the two companies will establish a global partnership to co-develop next-generation high-performance 3D printing materials for clear aligner therapy. The collaboration aims to accelerate the innovation and clinical adoption of direct 3D printing technologies in orthodontics and to build a future-ready digital dentistry ecosystem.
Driving the Next Wave of Digital Orthodontics
As digitalization transforms the dental industry, direct 3D printing is increasingly recognized as an important future technological shift. It reduces manufacturing steps and manual processes, significantly shortening production cycles. With breakthroughs in new materials and further process enhancements, the precision, mechanical properties, and biocompatibility of 3D-printed aligners are expected to improve, further expanding possibilities for complex cases and personalized treatment.
Combining Expertise to Accelerate Innovation
Leveraging LuxCreo’s expertise in direct 3D printing and its proprietary ActiveMemory™ smart materials, the partnership will integrate the strengths of both companies across material development, treatment design, and clinical applications. The investment will primarily support new material R&D, intelligent platform iterations, and ecosystem expansion. Through accumulating robust evidence and large-scale clinical data, the collaboration aims to continuously enhance treatment efficiency and reliability, laying the groundwork for broader clinical implementation.
Revolutionizing Aligner Therapy Through Material Innovation and Direct 3D Printing
Building on LuxCreo’s breakthroughs in smart materials and direct 3D printing, the collaboration is redefining how aligners are designed and delivered for clinicians and patients alike.
Greater Precision and Control
Innovative ActiveMemory™ materials provide continuous and consistent gentle forces, improving treatment predictability and helping shorten overall treatment time.
Enhanced Design Flexibility
The technology enables variable thickness, zonal elasticity, and microstructure customization—allowing clinicians to create highly individualized treatment plans and address complex tooth movements with greater accuracy.
Improved Patient Experience
By reducing reliance on traditional attachments, patients benefit from greater comfort, aesthetics, and convenience throughout their treatment journey.
