LightForce Orthodontics, makers of the world’s first and only fully customizable 3D-printed bracket system, today announced it raised a $14 million Series B round led by Tyche Partners with follow-on investment from Matrix Partners and AM Ventures. LightForce enables orthodontists to utilize its 3D-printing technology to create custom braces for each individual patient, significantly reducing the number of adjustment visits needed. In light of the ongoing pandemic, technology that reduces in-person dental visits is crucial not only to patients, but also to the orthodontists and their teams caring for them. LightForce will use the new funds to further develop its technology and product offerings, as well as to scale operations to meet the recent surge in demand for more efficient dental technologies.
