“The brand intends to be the one-stop platform for doctor-directed solutions for cosmetic dentistry and dermatology. The support of our investors has empowered us to bring to life our vision of building a first-of-its-kind clinical beauty technology brand. We, at Toothsi, intend to use this capital to build a great team for further geographic penetration and category expansion.”
It has facilitated smile makeovers for 140,000 customers in India, empowering them with access to at-home, new-age teeth straightening with invisible, 3D-printed clear aligner technology.
Toothsi has partnered with 2,000 partner dental centres across the country. The Mumbai-based startup intends to further expand the Toothsi brand’s availability to tier-II cities in the near future.
