The SmileSaver case attaches magnetically to an adhesive metal plate attached to the user’s smartphone or phone case.

SmileSaver announced that it has received a patent number from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for its aligner and retainer case. 

The SmileSaver case attaches magnetically to an adhesive metal plate attached to the user’s smartphone or phone case. It is designed to help patients avoid losing their clear retainers and aligner and to protect them from contamination when not in the mouth. 

According to the company, the SmileSaver product can double as a container for small items, a phone stand to watch videos, or an ergonomic phone holder. 

“This is an exciting time for SmilerSaver, we developed a simple case that takes the problem all patients have of losing their aligners, when not in use, and solves the problem by making sure the aligner case is attached to something people never misplace, their mobile smartphone,” said Thrine Harping, inventor of the SmileSaver. “We look forward to bringing the SmilerSaver product to the orthodontic and dental market as well as all the parents who have children who lose or misplace their aligners.”
