Breaking Free from the Old Ways

Why Half-Analog Workflows Fail—and How Going All-In Unlocks Efficiency

The Future Isn’t Just Digital—It’s Custom.

Is custom digital orthodontics just another fad—or the future of our profession? After completing 1,000 custom cases using the KLOwen Custom Solution, Dr. Jared Gianquinto, Gianquinto OrthoArts, has a clear answer. His practice in Bakersfield, California has transformed through the KLOwen Custom Solution, achieving faster finishes, fewer appointments, and a more balanced professional life. With over 1,000 custom cases completed using both metal twin and metal SL, his data has proven again and again the power of efficiency and control with our solution. 
 
“For me, the answer was to become more efficient—and the KLOwen Custom Solution was the answer.” 
 
Like many orthodontists, Dr. Gianquinto reached a point where the old ways weren’t sustainable. More chairs, more associates, or more hours didn’t solve the bottleneck problem in his practice. Custom digital braces provided a new path. With precise bracket placement and tailored mechanics, cases move with better predictability, with fewer adjustments and less chair time. 
 
“With KLOwen, I can reduce visits by 40% without sacrificing quality or personal interaction with patients.” 
 
Across his first 1,000 cases: 
- Treatment times dropped by nearly half. 
- Patients required fewer comfort visits and fewer wire bends. 
- His practice saw a 50% increase in production while overhead decreased. 
 
“This greater efficiency gave me more time in my practice—and in my life—without compromising outcomes.” 
 
Dr. Gianquinto used to be a “twin guy,” skeptical of self-ligating systems. But the switch to custom self-ligating brackets was a turning point. “When we got custom self-ligating brackets, that was a game-changer. Appointments became faster, more consistent, and easier for my team.” 
 
Transitioning to custom digital braces wasn’t without challenges—early bond failures, a learning curve for staff, and the temptation to fall back on direct bonding. But persistence paid off.  
 

Dr. Gianquinto and his team stayed committed, analyzed each case, and continuously improved their techniques. This allowed them to overcome the hurdles and today, they operate with a level of efficiency and precision that was once unimaginable. His advice: Commit fully. Train your team. Trust the process. Measure everything. Stay proactive. 

 
For Dr. Gianquinto, the KLOwen Custom Solution isn’t just about technology—it’s about freedom. Freedom to provide better care, freedom to grow his practice, and freedom to spend more time with family, music, and life outside the clinic. 
 
“Is the juice worth the squeeze? Absolutely. I would not go back.” 

In conclusion, Dr. Jared Gianquinto's journey through 1,000 custom orthodontic cases with the KLOwen Custom Solution is a testament to the transformative power of digital orthodontics. His innovative approach, combined with a relentless drive for excellence, has set a new standard in the field, proving that the future of orthodontics is not just bright—it's custom.
