Graphy
Graphy is a Seoul company whose Tera Harz Clear resin lets dental practices 3D print shape memory aligners directly, without thermoforming, so each practice sets the patient fee and Graphy publishes none. Practices list it from €1,999 in Tenerife, Spain and from £2,100 in Edinburgh, UK (as MEMORYALIGNER). The FDA cleared Tera Harz Clear in November 2022 and again in March 2024; three FDA reports filed in June 2025 relay one orthodontist's account of allergic-type reactions (breathing difficulty, lip and gum swelling, sore throat) in some of his patients.

What it can treat
In Graphy's own words: Crowding; Spacing and gaps; Relapse after braces; Malocclusion in permanent teeth (FDA-cleared indication). Sources
The clinician scans the teeth, plans the movements in design software and prints each aligner directly from a light-cured methacrylate shape memory resin, so thickness can vary by zone and the aligner can be warmed in water to regain its printed shape. Each aligner is worn about one week, 20 to 22 hours a day, per the FDA 510(k) summary. Sources

How treatment is supervised
Your dentist or orthodontist fits and adjusts treatment through regular visits. Suits: complex bites and larger movements that need hands-on care.

Dental bodies caution against straightening teeth without an in-person exam
The American Dental Association maintains a standing policy discouraging direct-to-consumer teeth straightening, reaffirmed in December 2023 on patient-safety grounds. The American Association of Orthodontists holds that treatment should be under the in-person supervision of a licensed orthodontist, warns that moving teeth without an exam and X-rays can miss gum disease or cavities and cause irreversible, expensive harm (bone and tooth loss, receding gums, changed bites), and urges patients to report problems to the FDA. See a dentist before starting, and stop and seek care if you notice pain, looseness, or bleeding.

Reported harms in the FDA device adverse-event database
Thousands of adverse-event reports have been filed with the FDA under the sequential clear-aligner product code (NXC), the large majority coded as injuries, spanning both in-office and at-home brands. A peer-reviewed analysis of the NXC reports filed from 2010 to 2020 (651 reports, 104 of them involving direct-to-consumer aligners) found the direct-to-consumer reports dominated by bite problems (41.3%), orofacial pain (29.8%) and periodontal harm (26.6%) such as loose teeth, gum recession and bone loss, with tooth sensitivity, jaw (TMJ) problems, fractured teeth and tooth loss also reported; the authors note that some of these harms are irreversible. These are unverified spontaneous reports, not incidence rates, and do not establish that any device caused the event, but they underline why an in-person check and professional oversight matter.
