The Alsteni System™ is the first intraorally-anchored feeding platform — completely invisible, fully removable, and non-surgical. Designed for patients who refuse traditional tubes.
Patients choose between visible hardware taped to their face or a permanent hole in their abdomen. Over half a million Americans live with this reality — and most who need a tube refuse one entirely.
Patients who refuse feeding tubes cite social stigma and body image concerns — not medical fears. Current options make illness visible to everyone.
Patients across oncology, neurology, and geriatric care depend on enteral nutrition. Nasogastric tubes dislodge. PEG tubes require surgery. Neither is invisible.
Millions stop weight loss drugs due to intolerable nausea and gastroparesis. They want results without perpetual side effects. No viable alternative exists today.
The Alsteni System uses orthodontic-grade molar bands with a transpalatal arch to anchor a completely removable feeding tube inside the mouth. When the tube isn't in use, nothing is visible.
No tape on the face. No nasal tube. No stoma. The anchor is hidden inside the mouth; the tube disappears when removed.
Patients insert and remove the tube themselves at home. No clinic visits for tube changes. Complete control over when feeding occurs.
Anchor placed in a single dental visit. No anesthesia, no incision, no recovery time. Fully reversible — remove the anchor and nothing remains.

A single FDA 510(k) clearance unlocks two large, underserved markets. Same device, same training, same supply chain — two revenue streams from day one.
An invisible tube for patients who need nutrition but refuse visible hardware. Addresses the 80% refusal rate driven by stigma, enabling compliance in oncology, neurology, and geriatric patients.
Physician-directed weight management using the body's own hormones. Jejunal nutrient delivery triggers natural GLP-1, PYY, and CCK production — the same mechanism as gastric bypass, without surgery.
Clinical expertise, engineering innovation, and commercial execution — a team with the credentials to bring Alsteni from concept to cleared medical device.
