Smartee and Dental Monitoring Partner to Simplify Refinement Workflows for Orthodontists

SHANGHAI, Sept. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Smartee Denti-Technology, a leading innovator in clear aligner solutions, and Dental Monitoring, the global leader in AI-powered remote monitoring for orthodontics, today announced a new integration designed to simplify and accelerate refinement workflows for orthodontists and dental professionals.

Traditionally, refinement in clear aligner treatment requires patients to visit their orthodontist’s office for an intraoral scan. The scan is then submitted to Smartee to generate a new treatment plan. While precise, this process often adds extra appointments and chair time for both patients and doctors.

Through this new collaboration, Smartee and Dental Monitoring have streamlined the process by connecting both of their systems. When patients use Dental Monitoring’s app to capture an oral scan, the data is automatically processed and made available within the Smartee platform. Smartee doctors can then access this information directly and generate a SmartSTL file by combining the initial intraoral scan, the current stage file from the Smartee treatment plan, and the remote patient scan that the patient just captured through the Dental Monitoring app. The result is an up-to-date SmartSTL file, eliminating the need for a new intraoral scan or an in-office visit, and ready for refinement planning.

This new feature is now available for Smartee doctors across the EU, Asia-Pacific, North, Central and South America. Doctors can access it directly from the Smartee case management system under ‘Digital Tools‘ > ‘DM SmartSTL‘, marking a new level of convenience in orthodontic care.

About Smartee
Founded in 2004, Smartee is the leading provider of clear aligners and digital orthodontic solutions. Headquartered in Shanghai, Smartee has four research & development centers and four manufacturing bases in China and Spain. By serving over 99,000 doctors in over 57 countries, Smartee provides over 10 aligner products catering to different malocclusion problems for children, adolescents, and adults.

About Dental Monitoring
Dental Monitoring is the orthodontic industry’s first AI-powered remote monitoring solution with FDA De Novo approval and MDR certification. It enhances clinical control, optimizes workflows with groundbreaking innovations, and improves the patient experience, providing real-time treatment updates for any orthodontic treatment, allowing doctors to provide a new standard of care.

This dual focus ensures simultaneous growth across listening, speaking, reading, and writing, helping learners progress toward native-like fluency.

Designed for young learners, “Power Up” pairs seamlessly with LingoAce’s interactive teaching methods to turn each lesson into an exploration. Each textbook unit is delivered through 10 focused lessons: nine for new content and one for consolidation and assessment. A spiral learning approach reinforces key concepts with increasing complexity, while LingoAce’s 25-minute “Teach–Practice–Feedback” model ensures maximum retention and measurable skill growth in every session.
