October 22 2020 - 8:26AM
SmileDirectClub, Inc. (Nasdaq: SDC), the oral care company with the
first medtech platform for teeth straightening, has partnered with
Texas-based dental service organization DECA Dental and its more
than 100 affiliated dental practices to give more consumers the
option to begin a SmileDirectClub treatment journey in the dentist
chair. The partnership with DECA Dental advances the
SmileDirectClub Partner Network, the Company’s direct-to-office
model that allows consumers a third option, in addition to the
company’s SmileShops and doctor-prescribed impression kits, to
begin clear aligner treatment using SmileDirectClub’s
innovative and easy to use telehealth platform.
“Our partnership with DECA Dental is a win for consumers in
Texas as it will offer them many new locations throughout the State
to access SmileDirectClub clear aligner treatment,” said David
Katzman, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman at SmileDirectClub.
“SmileDirectClub continues to focus on partnering with the dental
community to increase access to innovative oral care, and we’re
pleased to join with DECA Dental in this effort. Our growing
Partner Network, now extended to more than 600 dental practices
across the U.S., gives consumers yet another choice on how they can
get started on their teledentistry journey, and access a more cost
effective, efficacious and safe premium teeth straightening
solution.”
"DECA Dental and our world-class team of dentists and
orthodontists are proud to partner with SmileDirectClub to increase
access to affordable teeth-straightening options across the state
of Texas," said Dr. Sulman Ahmed, Founder & CEO of DECA Dental.
"As a clinician-founded and led organization, it is fundamental to
DECA Dental's core belief that all clinical decisions should be
made by a dentist and that dentists should have full autonomy in
deciding the best treatment options for their patients. Our
partnership with SmileDirectClub is directly related to our goal as
a company: to embrace innovative clinical systems that empower our
dental practices to operate efficiently while providing the highest
quality oral care to our patients."
Since launching in the U.S. in 2014, SmileDirectClub has become
one of the fastest-growing health technology companies and the
