Graphy is entering China’s orthodontic market of 3 million annual patients by partnering with Bondent Group to launch direct 3D printed Shape Memory Aligners (SMA). This direct-to-print workflow eliminates physical models, significantly reducing manufacturing waste and production time compared to traditional thermoforming. With Bondent processing 90,000 cases annually, this collaboration proves AM’s scalability in the world's second-largest dental market. The H2 2026 launch signals a systemic shift toward a fully digitalized and automated standard for clear aligner production. 🦷🚀 #3DPrinting #AdditiveManufacturing #DigitalDentistry #Expansion #MedTech
