uLab Systems, the creator of the uSmile clear aligner platform, has partnered with Mari’s List, an orthodontic study club and buying group, to offer an exclusive program for orthodontists to grow their business with uLab and simultaneously save on their Mari’s list membership fee.
Orthodontic practices have an opportunity to earn credit towards their membership fee by growing their uSmile clear aligner business with uLab*.
This new program is in addition to the discount benefits that Mari’s List members receive on uLab products.
Mari Sawtelle, founder of Mari’s List, states, “We have partnered with uLab to offer this exclusive program due to our shared belief that the orthodontist is the expert when it comes to tooth movement. uLab’s offerings reflect this belief by enabling control and flexibility for shared customers.”
Dr. Bill Layman, who uses uLab products and is a Mari’s list member, sees the synergy with this partnership, “We benefit greatly from Mari’s industry knowledge and uLab’s patient-centric ecosystem. The joint venture they are promoting is a great way for you to put controls in place to hedge the inflationary pressures we are all facing.”
Mari’s List has served the orthodontic community for over 10 years and has grown to over 2400 members. The list is comprised of the highest quality products at pre-negotiated prices to eliminate the need for each office to negotiate individual vendor contracts. Members report savings of $15,000 to $100,000 annually due to the buying power of the group.
uLab launched the uSmile clear aligner platform in 2020, providing aligners manufactured in Memphis, TN. The uLab platform allows orthodontists ultimate control over their aligner treatments by enabling hybrid and combo options, finishing brackets cases with aligners, and customization of staging, treatment velocity, attachments, and trimlines. uSmile aligners can be delivered in as few as 3-business days from case acceptance and is the first company to offer aligner packaging customized with the orthodontist’s practice logo. Over 800k aligner treatment cases have been planned to date.
