3D Printing — Custom Orthodontics Made In-House

At LaHaye Orthodontics, digital technology doesn't stop with scanning. We use in-house 3D printing to turn precise digital scans into customized orthodontic appliances for our patients.

After we digitally scan your teeth, the resulting 3D model can be used to design and manufacture appliances with a high degree of accuracy—without traditional impressions or plaster models.

How We Use 3D Printing

Our in-house digital workflow allows us to create:

• Models used in orthodontic treatment planning
• Custom clear retainers
• Appliances used during orthodontic treatment
• Models for our LaHaye Ortho Aligners

By combining digital scanning with in-house 3D printing, we have greater control over the process from the initial scan through the finished appliance.

More Control. More Precision. Less Waiting.

Producing orthodontic models and appliances in-house can reduce the need to send work to outside laboratories. That means fewer steps, greater control over quality, and in many cases a faster turnaround.

It also allows us to quickly reproduce certain appliances or retainers from your digital records when appropriate.

Modern Technology With a Purpose

We don't use technology simply because it's new. We use it when it can make your orthodontic treatment more precise, efficient, and convenient.

Our digital scanning and 3D-printing capabilities are part of how LaHaye Orthodontics combines decades of experience with modern orthodontic care for patients throughout Thibodaux, Houma, and the surrounding communities.
