Overview
Co-founders Alex Fenkell and Jordan Katzman first met at summer camp at age 13, a time when most smiles come fully loaded with wires. The two remained friends, and years later, reflecting on Alex's metal-mouthed youth, they decided there had to be a better and more affordable way to straighter, whiter teeth.
