In March 2022 Smartee completed a Series D financing round to support these initiatives. Smartee is a Shanghai-based developer of invisible orthodontics and digital orthodontic products, positioning itself as a domestic leader in China's invisible orthodontics market. In March 2019 the company completed a Series C financing described as "hundreds of millions of yuan." Smartee says the funds will be used mainly to expand its automated production line and to upgrade the "Smartee" brand logo. The company emphasizes talent recruitment and technological innovation as cornerstones for future growth and aims to lead the era of digital orthodontics in China. Smartee previously closed a Series B in 2017 (led by bioVENTURE), and continued institutional investor support is highlighted in the Series C announcement.
