BioMers launches full translucent braces

BioMers, a subsidiary of Nanostart, has launched its flagship product line, the SimpliClear Full orthodontic system. Having launched SimpliClear Full in Singapore, BioMers now plans to bring the new product line to other Asian countries, Europe, and the U.S.

The translucent dental brackets may be used to treat patients who even have severe misalignment of teeth, according to the company.

"Earlier this year we launched SimpliClear Express, which was suitable for limited cases, such as orthodontic relapses or mild misalignments involving the front anterior teeth," said Mervyn Fathianathan, CEO of BioMers, in a press release. "Now we are launching SimpliClear Full, which is the only translucent orthodontic system in the world that can treat the full range of teeth misalignments."

The SimpliClear system is based on composite polymer wires made extremely strong through the use of nanotechnology, the company explained. This patented technology gives SimpliClear braces mechanical properties similar to traditional metal braces, with the added benefits of high biocompatibility and nonallergenic characteristics. The polymer composite is formed into translucent arch wires, which have the tensile strength needed to move teeth into their correct positions.
