In an era where digitalisation is redefining dental care in unprecedented ways, Invisalign is at the forefront of digital transformation with strong growth. A new windfall is quietly approaching.

　　Domestic oral health care is in a golden period of development, major dental colleges and specialist dental hospitals play a vital role in which to bring together national dental experts and scholars, leading the direction of domestic academic development for the industry at the same time to continue to cultivate and transport professionals to set up a standardised development of the oral health care industry benchmarks. West China College of Stomatology of Sichuan University, as the top medical school of domestic oral health care, a hundred years of heritage, set teaching, medical and scientific research trinity, over the years to carry the historical mission of driving the construction and development of the national stomatology. As the forerunner and change agent of digital invisible orthodontics, Aqi Technology, with innovation and full-service as its core competitiveness, is committed to joining hands with Chinese orthodontists to create a new height and a new future of digital orthodontics.

　　This time, Aqi Technology, in conjunction with West China College of Stomatology of Sichuan University and the Special Committee on Orthodontics of Sichuan Provincial Stomatological Association, grandly held the Invisible Orthodontic Innovation Forum with the theme of "Digital Intelligence in the New Decade, Invisible Leader Creates the Future", and orthodontic specialists, scholars and practitioners of the public medical colleges from all over the country gathered at the grand event to explore the cutting-edge academic topics, application countermeasures, and clinical development and treatment of invisible orthodontic treatment. The experts, scholars and physicians from public medical schools around the country gathered at the event to discuss the cutting-edge academic topics, application countermeasures, and the latest innovative research results of clinical development, and to make joint efforts to promote the rise and leap of China's invisible orthodontic innovation power.
