Toothsi

Toothsi made an announcement to have raised $40 million in a Series C funding round. The round was led by Eight Roads Ventures, South Korea-based Paramark, IIFL, and the family office of Medlife. 

The company is planning to utilize the fresh capital in the following ways:

  • To further boost its technology platform and operations to guarantee a seamless customer experience,
  • To put money into robotic automation for dental aligner manufacturing.

Toothsi was founded by orthodontists Arpi Mehta Shah, Pravin Shetty, Manjul Jain, and Anirudh Kale in the year 2018. Toothsi has offered smile makeovers for 140,000 customers in India, empowering them with access to at-home, new-age teeth straightening techniques with invisible, 3D-printed clear aligner technology. 

The company has partnered with 2,000 dental centers across the country. The company is planning to further expand the brand’s availability to tier-II cities in the near future.
