Increasing demand for products with unique aesthetic value can be attributed to the willingness of an individual to look good. Everyone wants to look perfect and as a result, there has been a rise in the healthcare sectors like dentistry, cosmetic surgeries, and orthodontics. The global orthodontics market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 11.7 percent till 2023. The clear aligner market itself is expected to grow to 10.04 billion USD at a CAGR of 19.7 percent from 2020 till 2028.
15 to 17 percent of all orthodontic cases are done by clear aligners in North America as opposed to less than 1% of dental malocclusions being treated by aligners in India. However, the Indian market still lags in terms of basic health infrastructure which creates a huge scope for technology adoption in this domain of applied medical sciences. Render Wise is an emerging name in this market and is known for its stringent quality standards of its products and its enthusiasm in tracking global technological happenings subsequently creating a Made in India product for the Indian as well as the global market.
Dr. Nidhi Singh, Director & Head-Medical of Render Wise says, “We decided to apply 3D-printing in dentistry space as Dentistry has pioneered the adoption of 3D printing technology to better the clinical outcomes and has immense potential for use on an exceptionally large scale. At this point, we came across the idea of clear aligners. Dr Nidhi Singh, Rahul Agrawal, Sanjay Pathak and Ruchi Agrawal started Render Wise with a goal of
providing quality products that match global standards. We acquired our 3D-printer that can print with an accuracy of up to 16microns and was the most advanced 3D printing technology available in the global market during our inception in February’ 2017. The entire aligner manufacturing plant is German. We have a team of orthodontists, trained in Singapore and Denmark who plan the entire treatment and do not use technicians or BDS doctors for the process”.
32Watts Clear Aligners
32Watts Clear Aligners are a revolutionary offering from its parent organization, Render Wise. This is a much more advanced technology as compared to conventional braces in delivering an effective and non-intrusive treatment that does not compromise in bringing the brightest smile for its endusers. 32Watts aligners are gentle on gums and soft tissues and are free of any sort of stains, cracks and breakage. They are clear, transparent, and removable which has aesthetic benefits as well as easy on maintaining oral hygiene. When compared to traditional braces, aligners help in treating malocclusions but do not cause lesions, cuts, or any other side effects from its usage.
Render Wise is currently in collaboration with AIIMS, New Delhi for a study on clear aligners. Render Wise is backed up by its angel investors, Unimarck Healthcare Ltd, a leading Pharma company in India, on 32Watts aligners which is an ISO 13485:2016 certified product. Render Wise prefers the use of 3D-oral scanners for capturing digital image of teeth with a precision of up to 7microns. Nidhi adds, “Initially we had a single scanner with the intra oral scanning facility being provided Delhi NCR region only. But now 32 Watts has 5 scanners. We are rapidly increasing by adding 1 scanner in every 2 months, which has expanded our presence in Hyderabad, Bangalore, Chennai and the Chandigarh tri-city region with a precision over the input data through direct 3D-scanning”.
Journey Since Inception
Since its inception the company had been focused on delivering quality solution instead of focusing on monetary gains. The Ethos of Render Wise is a service oriented culture. Render Wise believes in making healthcare technology with uncompromised quality accessible to the masses rather than a chosen few. Rahul Agrawal, Head-Technology has spear headed the growth of the organization by leveraging software knowledge and manufacturing technology. Sanjay Pathak is a pioneer in the field of 3D printing applications in the Healthcare space. Render Wise conducted 50 trial cases, free of cost for its volunteers for ensuring the quality of its deliverables before the commercial launch of its product. Render Wise continues to invest in R&D by incorporating study cases continuously. It operates on three major business verticals namely Corporate Clients, Retail Doctors and practicing orthodontists and its newly launched digital tie-up ventures with dental clinics based on website inquiries received from the end-users.
Dr Nidhi says, “When patients contact us digitally, we provide them tele consultation after addressing their queries, setup an appointment in our channel partner dental clinic for intra oral scanning and consultation with the doctor and the treatment gets started at the clinic. So, it is much more of a business to customer to business channel(B2C2B) mode of operation for Render Wise”.
