BTK introducing IKONA: invisible orthodontics born from implantology

IKONA marks the beginning of a new approach to clear aligner therapy: a service designed to make invisible orthodontics more accessible, more predictable and easier to integrate into everyday clinical practice.

Born within the BTK ecosystem, IKONA brings more than 30 years of clinical rigour, manufacturing expertise and dedicated support from implantology into the world of orthodontics. The result is a clear aligner system built around one simple idea: giving dentists a reliable partner who understands clinical practice from the inside.

There are no setup costs, no mandatory paid courses and no annual subscriptions. Dentists can start without upfront investment and simply pay when they work on a case. There are no minimum packages and no contractual commitments, allowing clinicians to choose IKONA case by case, with complete flexibility.

Every treatment journey begins with a free preliminary technical evaluation: before committing to a case, the clinician receives an assessment of the digital impressions, an indication of the most appropriate package and an estimate of the number of aligners required. This means feasibility and costs can be evaluated in advance, before making a final decision.

Once the case is approved, IKONA provides an interactive 3D setup within five working days. The complete treatment progression can be reviewed and shared with the patient directly during the appointment, turning digital treatment planning into an effective tool for communication and treatment acceptance.

What truly sets IKONA apart is its level of clinical support. Each case is analysed individually by a dedicated Italian orthodontic technician, who contributes to treatment planning and remains available throughout the treatment. This personalised approach helps reduce the learning curve and makes clear aligner therapy more approachable, even for general practitioners without an extensive orthodontic background.

Designed for general dentists, supported with specialist-level expertise: IKONA combines technology with real human support around every clinical case.

The service also offers greater cost certainty. Every package includes two digital setup revisions and any necessary refinements, helping clinicians avoid unexpected additional costs during treatment.

IKONA fits seamlessly into the digital workflow of modern dental practices. Compatible with any intraoral scanner, the system accepts STL files directly, with no conversion or unnecessary intermediate steps.

For dentists already working with BTK, IKONA also represents the opportunity to manage implantology and orthodontics through one trusted ecosystem and a single point of contact.

Made in Italy and built on a culture of quality, clinical support and production expertise, IKONA is more than a clear aligner system.

It is invisible orthodontics born from implantology.
