Dror Ortho-Design

Venture Round in 2004
Dror Ortho Design develops an innovative AI-based platform that corrects smiles in a minimally invasive and pain-free manner using a patented aligner with pulsating air. The platform provides a seamless end-to-end digital solution for orthodontists, dentists, and consumers. Anyone can determine smile correction suitability with a smartphone. Dental practitioners can remotely monitor progress and modify treatment plans, eliminating the need for additional office visits. The system's advanced patent-pending imaging algorithms create 3D digital models of the patient's mouth from 2D cellphone videos that will approach the accuracy of intraoral scans using our machine-learning-based system. Custom aligners will be 3D printed for each patient, making our solution cost-effective and highly scalable. The base technology was developed over a decade by a skilled team of twelve experts, including orthodontists, engineers, industrial designers, and dental technicians, to correct Class 1 and Class 2 malocclusions using pulsating air. After extensive clinical trials, our solution received FDA approval in 2020 that extends to treating adults as well as adolescents.
