Australian Dentists Endorse Smartee's Mandibular Repositioning Technology at Global Symposium in Kunming
Clinicians praise the S8-SGTB appliance for accelerating outcomes, improving patient satisfaction, and offering a non-invasive solution for Class II malocclusions. KUNMING, China, July 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Smartee Denti-Technology recently welcomed orthodontic experts and partners from Australia at its Global Symposium in Kunming, China. The event offered a deep dive into Smartee's Mandibular Repositioning Technology and showcased its clinical applications, particularly the innovative S8-SGTB appliance for Class II skeletal malocclusions. Australian clinicians praised the device for its simultaneous orthopedic and orthodontic correction, shorter treatment duration, and patient-friendly design. Dr. Knox Kim, Principal Dentist at Dental Clinic @ World Tower Sydney, shared: "In the past, for treating Class II malocclusions in growing patients, we had to use twin-block appliances before starting aligner therapy. It took at least three to six months to see the improvement. But with Smartee, from my own experience, it only took about one or two weeks before the patient could notice the lower jaw was pushing forward. And when I show the patients and the patients' parents the before and after photos, they were very happy to see such a quick response and improvement." Dr. Jenny J. Song from Blossom Dental Care added: "Compared to traditional functional and fixed appliances, Smartee GS is intelligently designed to guide both mandible repositioning and teeth movement simultaneously. This not only reduces total treatment time but also improves the predictability of outcomes." Dr. Sabrina Liu, a general dentist in Sydney, reflected: "This seminar was eye-opening. The number of successful mandibular repositioning cases using Smartee GS aligners changed my perception of what clear aligners can achieve. I hope more dentists in Australia will learn about this technique to benefit their patients." At the core of Smartee's Mandibular Repositioning Technology is S8-SGTB, a clear, non-invasive appliance designed to treat skeletal Class II discrepancies, minimizing the need for jaw surgeries or extractions. Engineered for both growing and adult patients, it integrates orthopedic and orthodontic functions in a single aligner-based solution. Key features include: The S8-SGTB represents Smartee's commitment to delivering clinically effective, patient-centered treatment paths for complex cases.

Chinese Orthodontic Expertise Featured in JAO's Coverage of DGAO 2024
——Professor Gang Shen's Mandibular Repositioning Protocol Highlighted in JAO's Summary of Leading Presentations at the German Aligner Congress COLOGNE, Germany, July 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The Journal of Aligner Orthodontics (JAO), a leading international publication in the field, recently published a comprehensive summary of keynote presentations delivered at the 8th Congress of the German Association for Aligner Orthodontics (DGAO), held in Cologne in November 2024. Among the featured speakers was Professor Gang Shen, Chief R&D Scientist of Smartee Denti-Technology and Executive President of Taikang Bybo Dental Group, whose clinical approach to mandibular repositioning therapy drew particular attention for its structured methodology and non-surgical success in treating Class II skeletal malocclusions. According to JAO's summary, Professor Shen opened his keynote by introducing his diagnostic concept of 'three-depth malocclusion', a complex condition defined by: retrusive mandible, increased facial convexity, excessive overjet, deep overbite, a pronounced curve of Spee, and a Class II molar relationship. JAO highlighted the clinical challenge of treating such cases in adult patients, where orthognathic surgery is often clinically indicated but often declined by patients, and conventional treatments like maxillary distalization or premolar extractions have limited applicability. To overcome these limitations, Professor Shen proposed an orthopedic treatment approach using Smartee's S8-SGTB clear aligner system. The protocol is a two-phase treatment strategy, beginning with mandibular repositioning, achieved through the combination of vertical bite blocks and guided anterior mandibular advancement using the S8-SGTB appliance. In the subsequent phase, once the mandible has been repositioned, aligners are used to guide incisor intrusion and molar extrusion, optimizing occlusal relationships. The mandibular advancement also promotes adaptive bone remodeling in the posterior region of The vertical tooth movements are controlled via the aligner system, not directly caused by mandibular advancement itself. As emphasized in the JAO article, Professor Shen underscored that temporomandibular joint (TMJ) remodeling remains biologically viable even in adults, making effective repositioning feasible beyond adolescence. He also outlined a four-step simulation protocol to determine and record the optimal mandibular advancement position: 1. Complete an intraoral scan to record the patient's dentition anatomical structures.2. Perform a repositioning simulation to define the new jaw position3. Use wax registration to secure the position4. Take a posterior occlusal scan to digitally capture the final mandibular postureNote: The construction bite should maintain a 5 mm posterior clearance. The documented success of Smartee's GS system, with over 100,000 clinical applications to date, further validates its scalability, precision, and non-invasive treatment potential.

Global Orthodontists Gather in Europe to Explore Smartee's Breakthrough in Mandibular Repositioning
Orthodontists Gather in Brussels and Rome to Explore Advances in Malocclusion Treatment with GS Technology ROME, July 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Smartee hosted two European academic symposia on GS Mandibular Repositioning Technology, drawing orthodontists from over 10 countries to Brussels and Rome. These events marked a pivotal milestone in Smartee's mission to advance orthodontic excellence through cross-continental clinical exchange. Held in the heart of Europe, the Brussels symposium presented an in-depth program that covered the core principles and clinical applications of Smartee GS Mandibular Repositioning Technology. Attendees engaged in immersive GS theory workshops, hands-on practice, and complex case reviews, equipping clinicians with practical strategies for treating severe malocclusions. During the symposium, Prof. Gang Shen offered an in-depth clinical framework for managing adult cases of 'three-depth malocclusion'—a pattern characterized by mandibular retrusion, facial convexity, increased overjet, deep overbite, a pronounced Curve of Spee, and Class II molar relationship. Recognizing that surgical repositioning or maxillary extractions are often undesired by adult patients, Prof. Shen proposed a non-invasive, staged treatment approach. In the initial phase, aligners equipped with vertical bite blocks are combined with the S8-SGTB appliance to guide anterior mandibular repositioning. Then perform simultaneous incisor intrusion and molar extrusion. This protocal not only advances the mandible but also facilitates remodeling in the condylar region through adaptive bone deposition posterior to the joint. This strategy enables clinicians to improve facial profile, optimize dental function, and minimize invasive interventions, redefining how clear aligners can serve complex skeletal malocclusion cases. The Rome symposium continued this momentum, reinforcing Smartee's commitment to elevating global orthodontic standards. Both events facilitated robust dialogue between European clinicians and Smartee's scientific leadership, highlighting the appliance's clinical efficacy in treating Class II malocclusions and jaw discrepancies. Orthodontists from over ten countries, including France, Germany, Switzerland, the Netherlands, and Lebanon, attended the events, underscoring the growing international interest on GS Mandibular Repositioning Technology.
