SmileDirectClub To Introduce Its Market-Leading Telehealth Solution To Mexico
March 31 2021 - 7:57AM
SmileDirectClub, Inc. (Nasdaq: SDC), the next generation oral care
company with the first medtech platform for teeth straightening,
announced today its plan to continue the Company’s international
expansion with a launch in Mexico. The first two SmileShop
locations will open in April in Mexico City. This marks the
Company’s entrance into Latin America as it pursues the massive
global market opportunity for its innovative, premium, affordable
telehealth solution for orthodontia.
“SmileDirectClub is the global leader and innovator
of clear aligner therapy through telehealth and trusted by well
over a million customers who have achieved a smile they love with
our product,” said Kay Oswald, President of International at
SmileDirectClub. “We’re bringing our premium, safe, and effective
orthodontia solution to Mexico to give consumers in Latin America a
more affordable and convenient option to straighten their
teeth.”
According to the Company’s research, approximately
80% of Mexicans believe they’d benefit from teeth straightening but
the majority are prevented from pursuing it due to the cost and
inconvenience of traditional orthodontics. Priced at 40% less than
other options in the local market, SmileDirectClub exists to bridge
that gap.
Customers seeking clear aligner therapy using the
SmileDirectClub telehealth platform may book a free appointment at
a SmileShop to capture a 3D image of their teeth. Clear aligner
therapy with SmileDirectClub is prescribed, directed, and managed
by an affiliated and locally registered dentist or orthodontist
throughout the entire process from initial diagnosis to
completion.
Since launching in the U.S. in 2014,
SmileDirectClub has become one of the fastest-growing health
technology companies and continues to be the leading telehealth
platform for orthodontia. SmileDirectClub has straightened smiles
for well over one million customers in 13 markets around the world
– the largest international footprint of any company providing
clear aligner therapy through telehealth.
