The Straight Talk Dental Coalition, powered by 3Shape, aims to give dental professionals a voice for expressing the impact of ... Align’s action on their practices and patients, and channels for making their voices heard. Align’s sudden termination of interoperability between Invisalign and 3Shape’s TRIOS scanners hurts dentists, adding unexpected costs and disrupting their practice. Dentists and dental professionals shouldn’t be forced to pay for a business dispute between Align and 3Shape, and reinstating interoperability is the right thing to do. Tell Align Technology, Inc. to re-instate interoperability between Invisalign and 3Shape’s TRIOS scanner. Visit www.straightalkdentists.com to make your voice heard.

Currently, 3Shape’s TRIOS scanners work directly with nearly 40 orthodontic treatment providers, offering dentists wide-ranging choice in a once-closed market. read more
