Clear aligner manufacturing for Dutch practices

Dutch practices went digital early — most already own the scanner. What is missing is the planning capacity and the manufacturing. We supply both, on a per-case basis, with a doctor portal your team can actually use.

FAQ

What Dutch partners ask

Where is our patient data processed?
Intraoral scans are health data under Article 9 GDPR. We sign a verwerkersovereenkomst, transfer files over encrypted channels, work from pseudonymised case IDs and delete on a defined retention schedule. Your practice remains the controller; we act only on your documented instructions. We will confirm the processing location in writing as part of the DPA — do not accept a vague answer to this question from any supplier.
Who is the legal manufacturer if we brand it ourselves?
Clear Moves Aligners is the legal manufacturer and holds the technical file. If you place devices on the market under your own name, MDR Article 16 obligations may transfer to you. We map the arrangement with your regulatory adviser before the first order.
Which scanners do you accept?
3Shape TRIOS, iTero Element and 5D, Dentsply Primescan, CEREC Omnicam, Medit i500 and i700, Carestream CS 3600. Any STL, PLY or OBJ export. PVS impressions also accepted.
What happens if an aligner does not fit?
If the fault is ours, it is remade at no cost. Refinements from patient non-compliance or a changed clinical decision are quoted separately at a reduced rate. The policy is in the partner agreement, not left to goodwill.
Is there a minimum order?
No. Send one case, evaluate the setup, the material and the packaging, and decide from there.
