The Memory Shape Technology Aligner
Memory Shape Technology is a material science concept that refers to materials that can “remember” their original shape and return to it after deforming.
How we do it.
This is achieved through the use of Graphy Tera Harz TC-85 photocurable resin that undergoes reversible phase changes when exposed to temperature.
These aligners are designed to apply controlled pressure on teeth to gradually move them into the desired alignment, and the memory shape technology dramatically aids in achieving consistent and predictable results.
Shape memory polymers can reduce the number of orthodontic splints needed in the therapeutic process. The novel material combines effective tooth movement with more efficient use of resources.

Uclear Direct Aligners offer significant advantages for dental professionals.
Experience the BENEFITS
MEMORY SHAPE TECHNOLOGY:
Our patented Memory Shape Technology ensures that the aligner always returns to its original shape when placed in the mouth at body temperature (37°C / 98.6°F). By warming the aligners in water, they become pliable enough to adapt to the teeth surfaces without exerting hard pressure. Once at body temperature, they effortlessly regain their initial shape.
DIRECT PRINTING ALIGNERS:
In partnership with Graphy, Uclear introduces the world’s first aligner that can be directly printed from a 3D printer eliminating the need for physical 3D models. This innovation leads to enhanced precision.
ACCELERATED TREATMENTS:
Uclear Direct Aligners require fewer aligners on average for orthodontic cases. The memory shape technology allows continuous light forces to guide tooth movement, enabling most aligners to be replaced every week. Additionally, Uclear Direct Aligners are delivered faster to professionals compared to major aligner brands.
SUBSTANTIAL COST SAVINGS:
The absence of physical 3D models reduces the cost and processing time required for aligners. This translates to lower prices for both professionals and their patients, resulting in significant cost savings.
ENHANCED ALIGNER DESIGN CONTROL:
Uclear Direct Aligners offer customizable thickness and margin lines, providing greater biomechanical possibilities. The ability to adjust the aligner design opens new opportunities for anchorage, activation, and effective teeth movement, overcoming current limitations of conventional aligner treatments.
PRE-PACKAGING DISINFECTION:
Uclear Direct Aligners are the only aligners on the market that come predisinfected in the package. Our aligners undergo boiling water disinfection (100°C) as a quality control protocol.
ENHANCED PATIENT EXPERIENCE:
The Uclear Direct Aligner is easily adaptable to both hard and soft tissue in the elastic stage of the material. Soaking it in warm water ensures a comfortable fit from the first day of wearing, eliminating discomfort and complicated usage instructions.
MINIMAL ATTACHMENTS REQUIRED:
The precision of Uclear Direct Aligners minimizes the need for attachments, which benefits both patients and professionals.
SUPERIOR FIT AND ADAPTATION:
Being 3D printed, Uclear Direct Aligners precisely cover all tooth surfaces, ensuring better control, improved patient comfort, perfect intercuspation, no open bites, and reduced stress on the temporomandibular joint (TMJ).
A COMFORTABLE orthodontic experience
What its Shape Memory Technology?
Uclear’s 3D-printed dental aligners have a shape memory property that allows them to return to their original shape when submerged in water. This property makes it less painful for patients to place the aligners on their teeth and allows for thorough disinfection.
The Uclear aligners are made from Tera Harz, a biocompatible photopolymer material that is FDA approved. The material has a higher flexure strength and higher elongation than conventional thermoforming resin, making it resistant to external shocks.
