Dental innovation: Actival and CSEM launch 3D antibacterial aligners

Actival has created innovative transparent 3D-printed aligners equipped with microchannels that release an antibacterial fluid, ensuring precise teeth alignment while preventing bad breath, plaque, and cavities.
The newest startup from CSEM, Actival developed this technology through CSEM’s startup program, ACCELERATE, which was crucial in bringing this innovation to maturity.
Actival plans to launch in Switzerland and internationally, aiming to capture a growing global market.
