How To Get Start With SmileShare
Getting started digitally with SmileShare™ is simple and easy. If it is your first time submitting a scan, please contact the 3D. Ortho department at 800-489-4020 for initial setup instructions. Setup is quick but varies depending on your scanner, anticipate anywhere from 5 to 30 minutes for initial setup.
DFT – Digital File Transfer
Use Your Intraoral Scanner to Send Files To SmileShare™
DynaFlex® is able to print your scanned orthodontic case on our Rapid Prototyping Printers into a physical working model. These models are then sent into our laboratory for appliance fabrication. The model-building material is made from the highest quality available today. It is a non-toxic durable material that does not break easily like plaster and stone models. The accuracy of the model is exceptional and the appliance fit is better than EVER!
Some appliances require a bite for fabrication. If you submit your case digitally, you can also submit your bite digitally. If you are unsure if a bite is needed for a certain appliance, contact our customer care team at 800-489-4020.
First Step
Taking Your Scan
Most scanners allow you to send your scans directly to DynaFlex®. If your scanner does not support this feature, you can manually export your scans directly to DynaFlex®. DynaFlex® can except an .stl file from any scanner.
Second Step
Completing Your Prescription
Filling out your prescription has never been easier! Prescriptions are available for download HERE. Every case requires a DynaFlex® prescription to be completed and submitted.
Third Step
Submitting Your Case
If your case was submitted directly from your scanner, simply email your prescription to rx@dynaflex.com. If your scanner does not have the capabilities to send the scan directly, please call and easily set up submission through our 3D.Ortho Portal.

DMP – Digital Model Printing

There is no need to remove brackets before you take the scan! DynaFlex® can easily remove brackets for you digitally. Simply check off Bracket Removal on your Rx that you submit for the case. For best results, it is important to capture ALL of the area around the bracket. Removing archwire will ensure better results.
