AI-powered digital orthodontics company Laon Medi has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Geno, a specialist in medical device manufacturing automation, to jointly develop an automated production system for clear aligners. Through this partnership, Laon Medi aims to combine its AI-based digital orthodontic software with Geno's manufacturing automation technology to establish an integrated workflow that connects patient diagnosis, treatment planning, and appliance production. Conventional clear aligner workflows often require multiple manual steps between treatment planning and manufacturing. The new platform is designed to streamline this process by seamlessly connecting digital treatment planning with automated production, supporting a more efficient in-house manufacturing environment for dental clinics. Laon Medi will provide its AI-powered digital orthodontic platform, Laon Ortho, for diagnosis, treatment planning, and appliance design, while Geno will contribute its expertise in manufacturing automation and production processes. Together, the two companies plan to build a digital production environment that enables clinicians to produce clear aligners more efficiently within their own practices. Il-Hoon Kim, Vice President of Laon Medi, said, "This partnership represents an important step toward connecting digital orthodontic software with automated manufacturing technology. We will continue collaborating with industry-leading partners to create a more efficient digital workflow for dental professionals." Laon Medi continues to expand its digital orthodontic ecosystem through Laon Ortho, integrating AI-powered diagnosis with advanced manufacturing technologies to strengthen its competitiveness in the global digital dentistry market.

Laon Medi has entered into a strategic partnership with dental orthodontic materials distributor Kwangmyung Daycom to expand its presence in the domestic clear aligner market. Through this collaboration, Laon Medi will provide its proprietary digital orthodontic software, Laon Ortho, across Kwangmyung Daycom’s nationwide distribution network, significantly enhancing market reach and sales opportunities. Kwangmyung Daycom is also expected to strengthen its competitiveness by expanding beyond traditional orthodontic materials into digital orthodontics and clear aligner solutions. By combining AI-driven digital technology with a strong distribution infrastructure, the two companies aim to accelerate the digital transformation of the orthodontic market and unlock new business opportunities. Laon Medi will continue to build a comprehensive digital orthodontic ecosystem through strategic partnerships and further solidify its position in both domestic and global markets.

AI-based medical solution company Laon Medi has signed an agreement with Graphy, a specialized 3D printing medical materials company, to commercialize a next-generation clear aligner platform and expand its global business. Through this collaboration, Laon Medi aims to integrate its AI-based orthodontic design software with Graphy’s advanced 3D printing materials and manufacturing technologies to develop and commercialize a next-generation digital orthodontic platform for the global market. Previously, the two companies entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) in October last year for the joint development of an AI-based orthodontic solution. After approximately six months of R\&D, the platform is now in the final stages of system development, with pilot operations planned ahead of a global launch. The upcoming platform combines Laon Medi’s CBCT-based root analysis and 3D visualization capabilities with Graphy’s shape-memory resin and 3D printing technologies. It enables precise simulation of complex tooth movements and significantly simplifies conventional manual workflows into a “one-click” level through automation. In particular, the platform is designed as a fully integrated “One-stop” system, covering the entire process from order intake and AI-based treatment setup to aligner design and final production via 3D printing. This is expected to reduce lead time and establish a scalable mass production system. A representative from Laon Medi stated, “Through our collaboration with Graphy, we have enhanced the completeness of our digital orthodontic platform while securing both scalability and productivity required for the global market. We plan to expand our presence in key markets including the U.S. and Japan.” Meanwhile, Laon Medi continues to strengthen its global footprint with its AI-based dental software, Laon Ortho, gaining recognition for its technology and clinical applicability through major exhibitions and academic conferences.
