hey it's dr amanda with straight smile solutions streetsmouthsolutions.com and today we're going to
touch base circle back a little bit more about white label aligners again if you want to know
more about white label aligners i actually have a playlist all about it if you go to my
youtube page straight smile solutions not youtube homepage in general but straight smile solutions
youtube page if you scroll down on the playlist you will see one that says like alternative
aligners slash white label aligners you should watch that whole playlist because there's
a ton of information in there and it's totally free and why pay for an orthodontic class or
pay for a class when you can get the information for free right so and the great thing about street
smile solutions is that we help doctors do more ortho we don't directly the vast majority
of orthodontists that are doing this kind of consulting that are out there um are affiliated
with one particular company like they're a k-o-l for invisalign or they're a k-o-l for a six-month
miles whereas we do not directly partner with any company we are completely agnostic we'll work with
whatever company you want to work with and if you don't know what company is best we'll listen to
your needs and we can give you suggestions on which company might be best which might be most
affordable which might fit your demographic um or the needs of your practice it's part of what we
do so because there are like literally dozens of different aligner companies there are some
that we have more experience with than others just because it's what people are doing but we're
open to working with anyone basically one of the ones that we do work with is what we call white
label and again if you want to learn more about white label please watch our playlist with all
the information i'm not going to go into that much detail because you should have it already
but white label just means unbranded aligners some people do this as in-house aligners that means
they're doing everything in their own lab i'm not a lab work person so i've been help working with
a lot of white label companies that allow you to completely outsource the whole process that means
that you don't need a lab you do need a scanner it's strongly recommended because you're only
taking impressions it's going to cost more and it's going to be a hassle so i definitely remember
recommend having a scanner but you can have any scanner that's the beauty of it doesn't matter
what scanner you have they will accept it you just upload the prescription into their website
and you kind of give them some feedback as to what you're looking for in terms of the treatment
plan no the dashboards are not as beautiful as the lying technologies you're paying that 1900
per case to have a beautiful dashboard have the convenience have it be super fancy it's not like
that because they're not putting they're trying to keep the price as low as humanly possible so that
you can provide an affordable aligner solution for your patients a very affordable one so the
price point if you are completely outsourcing in the us is about 20 per liner plus a 99 setup
fee which is super affordable do the math on that that means you can have a 10 upper and lower case
for less than 499 dollars if i'm doing the math right right 10 uppers 10 lowers that's total of
20 aligners at 20 a pop and then a 99 setup fee that's freaking awesome because that 10
would be a light case um or an express 10 which is easily i think a thousand to 1200 invisalign
so it's like less than a half of the price which is pretty awesome but remember white label does
not come with revisions and refinements on the manufacturing it only comes with revisions and
refinements on the design part and your aligners are working with a variety of
different companies in this workflow so you're going to pick one company for the design and
then you're going to pick another company for the manufacturing once you pick your
design company then they will give you a list of the manufacturers they partner with and if you're
interested in that introduction all you have to do is message me email me better to email me or
to go to my website straightsmilesolutions.com my email is on there straightsmilesolutionsplural.com
and you can contact us and we'll be glad to give you an intro remember these companies don't have
big fancy websites because they're trying to keep their like i said their prices as low as possible
they don't do marketing they don't do fancy websites or anything like that it's mostly a word
of mouth thing so if you want to intro contact me i'm glad to enter to introduce you to them
and if you if they know if i refer you that you're looking for a certain type of treatment plan so
they're really really good at making sure you have the best possible treatment plans the thing i love
about these smaller companies is that they really get to know you um because they're not doing you
know 200 000 doctors so they get to know you as the doctor they know your preferences they know
what you like they know what you don't like and they really tailor these treatment plans for you
and the other cool thing is that they um have most of the bells and whistles that you need that align
technology offers like the anterior bite turbos like the precision cuts attachments everything
like that the only thing that they can't offer is the stuff that's still patented or proprietary ip
that invisalign has like ma mandibular advancement wings what else do they not have um they can still
do phase one you know like invisalign first but they can do phase one aligners they can do
entire bite turbos they can do distillation they can do precision cuts for class 2 class 3 elastics
they can do pontics i think there might be a teeny bit of an extra price for pontix if you need them
you can fill them yourself of course um so it's pretty much everything one thing i wouldn't
use them for maybe as much as you had like a complicated mixed dentition case because you're
gonna have to rescan a lot as teeth come in and out and you're gonna be paying for those aligners
um and of course if you're looking for mandible advancement that's not gonna work because that's
patented but otherwise you can if you pair it with other appliances you can pretty much do
almost every case of course it's a super hard case i still recommend doing invisalign because
if you know this case is going to be 50 60 70 80 aligners the price point is going to be
the same if you just do invisalign but if it's a simpler case it's going to be
way way cheaper and the the thermoplastic material assuming you pick a good lab i recommend picking
one that's using xendura flx and you can ask when we introduce you which ones do most do
um and they do an incredible job the trim looks nice everything likes that it's just not branded
it doesn't come in a fancy case or anything like that or with fancy instructions you do
need to have your own informed consent that doesn't come with it because it's not branded
you have to create your own we have those in our store if you need copies of them just as
of course we're not attorneys but you're welcome to use it as a draft brand it yourself has all
the basic information that you need you're going to take home instructions and all that
you want to make sure you have a case you're going to give them chewies but you know what
how much is that like two to two bucks it's not a big deal so um anyway so yes
we do work on for the most part there are a bunch of different treatment plan companies we work with
each of them has their own manufacturing company and prices the one we work with most is called
global so if you're interested in an intro to learn more about white label aligners at 20
of pop in the u.s give me a holler and i'll be glad to introduce you all right thanks so much
