Smartee Denti-Technology Releases 2025 Year-in-Review: 100,000 GS Mandibular Repositioning Cases, Global Expansion, and Manufacturing Scale-Up

SHANGHAI, Jan. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Smartee Denti-Technology today released its 2025 annual review, detailing a pivotal year characterized by the worldwide clinical application of its proprietary mandibular repositioning technology, the inauguration of new European infrastructure, and a strategic partnership with the Straumann Group.

The 2025 review highlights Smartee's transition from rapid growth to sustained maturity, underscored by advancements in three key pillars: clinical efficacy, global supply chain capability, and professional education.

Clinical Milestone: Applicating Mandibular Repositioning at Scale

A central achievement of 2025 was the crossing of the 100,000-case threshold for the Smartee GS Mandibular Repositioning technology. This volume represents significant real-world evidence for the efficacy of using clear aligners to treat severe jaw discrepancies, specifically Class II and Class III malocclusions, via mandibular repositioning rather than traditional extraction or surgical mechanics.

Academic recognition of this approach accelerated throughout the year. The Journal of Aligner Orthodontics (JAO) published two separate papers on Smartee's protocols:

• Issue 2, 2025: A report by Dr. Xingxing Wang, Smartee Medical Director, on treatment of Class II malocclusion with sagittal-guidance twin block clear aligners (S8-SGTB).
• Issue 4, 2025: A research paper titled "Working Mechanism and Clinical Management of Mandibular Advancement Repositioning Technology in Treating Three-Depth Malocclusion in Adult Patients" by Prof. Gang Shen, Smartee GS Chief Scientist, and his orthodontic team, further documenting clinical outcomes.

Operational Expansion and New Partnership

In 2025, Smartee expanded its production capacity to meet growing international demand by launching a new 100,000-square-meter intelligent manufacturing campus.  The facility features fully automated production lines enhanced with additional modular capabilities and supports both internal product lines and external partners.

This production capability was validated in October through a strategic partnership with the Straumann Group. Under the agreement, Smartee will provide manufacturing support for Straumann's clear aligner brand, ClearCorrect, in selected EMEA and APAC markets, leveraging its advanced infrastructure to provide customized production solutions while ensuring product consistency.

R&D Breakthroughs: Sleep Appliance & AI Integration

In the fourth quarter of 2025, Smartee diversified its clinical portfolio with two major technological launches aimed at multidisciplinary care and workflow efficiency.

Smartee Sleep Aligners (Oct. 1): Smartee entered the sleep apnea device market with the launch of the Smartee Sleep Aligner series, designed to treat mild-to-moderate Obstructive Sleep Apnea-Hypopnea Syndrome (OSAHS). The series features a patented digital twin-splint locking system for mandibular advancement and an ultra-thin 1mm profile which provides much more comfortable wearing experience than conventional appliances.

Clinical Impact: The device is engineered to expand the oropharyngeal airway by up to 23%. The launch introduced two variations: the SA for standalone sleep therapy, and the SA Plus, which combines airway management with simultaneous orthodontic tooth movement—positioning it as a pioneering dual-action solution.

Smartee Live 3D (Oct. 30): To enhance efficiency in digital treatment planning, Smartee introduced Live 3D, an AI-driven treatment planning tool. By leveraging deep learning algorithms, Live 3D generates initial 3D treatment designs in just 30 minutes. Coupled with Smartee LiveUpdate, this digital ecosystem allows clinicians to move from case upload, treatment plan revision to final approval in less than one hour, significantly accelerating the total production turnaround time.

Global Footprint: Localization in Europe

To support its growing partner base, Smartee established a dedicated UK subsidiary and inaugurated the European Orthodontic Clinical Support Center in Stoke-on-Trent. This center provides region-specific treatment planning and clinical support, ensuring that digital treatment plans align strictly with local medical standards and biomechanical preferences.

Educational Outreach: Bridging Global and Regional Markets

Smartee's commitment to academic exchange remained robust in 2025, with participation in 27 major international congresses (including IDS Cologne and SEDO Spain) and the organization of extensive proprietary training:

• Global Tours: The "Smartee GS" mandibular repositioning technology lecture series toured 17 cities worldwide—including Paris, Tokyo, and Rome—training over 11,000 professionals.
• China Market: Domestic training programs reached 14,330 participants. Notably, Smartee extended advanced orthodontic education beyond first-tier cities into emerging markets such as Weifang, Lanzhou, and Kunming, fostering ecosystem development in lower-tier regions.
• Pediatric Early Orthodontics Focus: Highlighting early intervention, Smartee hosted Pediatric Early Orthodontics and Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy summits in Singapore, Melbourne, and Disneyland® Paris, as well as the International Symposium on Myofunctional Therapy in Shanghai.

Concurrently, Smartee advanced its ESG commitments, implementing solar energy projects projected to reduce CO₂ emissions by 209 tons annually, alongside digital governance systems to enhance employee wellness.

SEOUL, South Korea, April 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The 2026 Asia Design Prize ceremony took place recently in Seoul, South Korea. MINISO took home three awards for its original designs, standing out among more than 1,500 submissions from 31 countries and regions. Flip Mirror earned a Gold Winner award, while Lumion Brush and Light Forest received Winner recognition, pointing to MINISO's growing in-house design and R&D capabilities.

Asia Design Prize is one of Asia's most influential international design awards. Renowned for its rigorous, impartial jury process and global perspective, the competition spotlights work that reflects where design is heading and helps bring those ideas and practice to a wider audience. It has become a visible platform connecting Asian design talent with the international stage.

These three winning products each address distinct everyday scenarios, combining sharp user-centric insight with structural innovation to make daily routines more intuitive.

Flip Mirror, the Gold Winner, is a hidden-storage compact mirror. With a flip mechanism, it tucks small items behind the mirror, blending storage and use in a way that feels seamless—even on a crowded desk. MINISO Seoul Design Center noted, "We wanted to turn everyday desktop organization into something simple, intuitive, and meaningful. Flip Mirror doesn't just keep your space tidy—it turns the act of flipping into a small, satisfying ritual."

Light Forest, an ambient mood light, draws inspiration from the silhouette of a forest. Its soft silicone shade conceals a squeeze sensor—users turn the light on and off with a gentle pinch, replacing traditional controls with a more tactile and playful interaction.

Lumion Brush, a portable scalp massager, focuses on personal care. It combines gentle vibration with ionic care, while its ergonomic, lightweight design makes it easy to use anywhere—at home or on the go—turning daily scalp care into something more efficient and effortless.

In recent years, MINISO has stepped up its focus on creative design as it expands globally. The company was an early advocate of "interest-driven consumption," and continues to push product innovation through a dual-engine approach— top-tier licensed IP collaborations and proprietary IP development—empowered by its design and technology capabilities. MINISO is advancing the development of four design centers in China, South Korea, Japan, and the United States, helping to build a global design network that continues to strengthen its original R&D capabilities. Winning multiple honor at Asia Design Prize further validates MINISO's sustained investment in its original design system. Looking ahead, MINISO will keep design at its core, bringing consumers products that are both inventive and genuinely useful.
