What is Modelaider®?
Modelaider® is a trademarked and patented, USA-made tool that lets your team pour precise horseshoe (arch) models with little to no bubbles and no model trimmer needed. No sending cases out; this production stays in-house. The model comes out ready to drop straight into your workflow.
Why does that matter? Because the model is where in-office fabrication usually breaks down. Getting a good impression and a good model is not something most teams do all day, every day, and when the model fails, the whole system fails. Modelaider makes the pour repeatable: after a short training, any team member can produce professional, consistent models, every operator, every time.
What does that unlock? Your office can fabricate and deliver custom whitening trays, mouthguards, night guards, and snore guards during the same visit. No second visit. No lab bill. No rebooking. The patient says yes, and the appointment they are already sitting in produces new fee-for-service revenue the same day. And if you offer in-office whitening, fabricate the custom trays during the applications and deliver them at the end of the same appointment, so the patient keeps whitening at home and has trays ready for touch-ups.
Solo office, group practice, or DSO? Modelaider standardizes model pouring across every operator, every operatory, and every location. One short training, one repeatable result, at any scale.
Modelaider® is the first and only efficient, reproducible in-office system for pouring professional models without a model trimmer. That is what makes same-visit custom tray delivery practical for any office, any team member, any day of the week.

“I got to have it!”
“I was honestly blown away by this. I did not think it would work, but the magic happens the second you pour the stone into the Modelaider. I do not even have a model trimmer anymore. I got rid of everything I used to rely on. There is no reason to say you cannot pour models while the patient is still in the chair. You absolutely can!”

How Modelaider® can help everyone
Bringing whitening into your practice, or bringing it back? We will help you introduce it step by step, with support from the inventors.
Considering a scanner and 3D printer? Modelaider delivers same-day custom trays for a $359 investment and helps you establish a tooth whitening, night guard, and mouthguard delivery workflow while you evaluate your scanner and 3D printing options. It continues to earn alongside digital equipment after you invest.
No time to send cases to the lab? Pour, fabricate, and deliver in one visit. And if you are a dental lab, Modelaider speeds up your model work too.
Why is now the perfect time?
See what your practice can generate: $35,375 per year at the calculator's numbers.*
* Approximate. Your fee, volume, and costs will change every figure.
Why add this now? The three gaps costing your practice revenue:
Most whitening now happens outside the dental office.
At-home users account for 68.67% of teeth whitening market revenue.[5] Patients want whiter teeth, and most of that spending goes to drugstore strips, kits, and toothpaste instead of the dental office. The fix is the easiest in dentistry: start asking the question again. Approximate recapturable revenue per practice: $35,375 per year at the numbers in the calculator above.
Custom trays delivered chairside, in the same visit.
Impression at the start of the prophy. Tray fabricated while the cleaning happens. Trays delivered at the end. No lab, no rebook, no insurance friction. The workflow does not require the dentist to personally fabricate or deliver the tray. State and local dental supervision laws vary, so verify with your state dental board what level of dentist involvement is required for your jurisdiction.
Modelaider® turns a dental assistant into your office's Whitening Champion.
Modelaider® values dental assistants and dental hygienists. They are the foundation of practice production. The Method™ gives them a profitable skill they own, a per-case bonus funded entirely by the procedure (set the amount yourself in the calculator above), and a real path to grow with the practice. More than 80% of dentists say recruiting dental hygienists is extremely challenging, and 57% say the same about dental assistants.[6] The procedure funds the raise that keeps them on staff.
Frequently asked questions
