orthobrain has raised $7.5 million in growth capital to support the expansion of its orthodontic integration platform for general dentists, with the funding set to drive technology development, educational initiatives, and broader access to its clear aligner system.


orthobrain, a company that works with dentists and dental service organizations to integrate orthodontics into their practices, announced it has raised $7.5 million in growth capital. The investment is led by CareCapital, one of the largest investors in the dental care industry and JumpStart Ventures, with additional support from JobsOhio, the state in which the company is based.

Company Vision and Impact

“At orthobrain, we are not just transforming orthodontic care, we are giving general practitioners the confidence, tools and education to seamlessly integrate orthodontics into their practices,” said Richard Uria, president of orthobrain. “This funding is a testament to the success of our model and the trust we’ve built with both our investors and partners. It will drive continued innovation, ensuring more dentists worldwide have access to the support they need to grow their practices and provide outstanding patient care.”

Growth Metrics and Future Plans

According to the company, the funding comes as its total revenue increased 145% year-over-year and doctor registrations increased by more than 185% since 2023. This strategic funding reportedly will fuel the business’ next phase of growth through targeted investments in talent, technology, marketing and education programs as the company continues to focus on equipping more general practitioners with the expertise and support needed to deliver orthodontic care.

“At orthobrain, we are revolutionizing the way orthodontic care is delivered by enabling general practitioners to integrate orthodontics with ease and confidence,” said Dr Dan German, founder, CEO, and chief orthodontist of orthobrain. “This new capital allows us to build on our strong foundation, accelerate our technology roadmap, and continue to empower doctors worldwide to transform smiles and lives.”

Technology and Education Initiatives

orthobrain also announced the launch of a new technology platform for general practitioners who deliver orthodontic care. The platform is designed to streamline clinical workflows while optimizing treatment outcomes.

“Our customers are experiencing tangible business growth after implementing orthobrain solutions,” said Julie Radzyminski, vice president of consumable merchandising and product development at Benco Dental. “The ability to offer orthodontic services in-house has not only increased practice profitability but has also strengthened patient retention and satisfaction.”

To complement the technology advancement, orthobrain is also rolling out orthobrain University. The company describes this as a comprehensive educational ecosystem that will deliver on-demand learning and specialized resources to practitioners aimed at enabling them to expand their orthodontic services.

Expanding Access to Clear Aligners

The company expects the capital investment to also help it expand access to its proprietary clear aligner system, SimplyClear Aligners, to more providers and patients.

Investor Confidence and Industry Impact

The latest funding round reinforces the confidence of JumpStart Ventures, CareCapital and JobsOhio, in orthobrain’s vision to transform orthodontic care delivery.

“orthobrain exemplifies Ohio’s leadership in healthcare innovation,” said J.P. Nauseef, president and CEO of JobsOhio. “Their breakthrough platform is revolutionizing dental care delivery while establishing Ohio as a hub for advanced healthcare solutions.”

“orthobrain stands at the intersection of clinical excellence and technological innovation,” noted Hardik Desai, managing partner at JumpStart Ventures. “By seamlessly integrating specialist expertise with comprehensive support tools, they’re enabling general dentists to confidently expand into orthodontics. We’re excited to fuel their continued growth as they enhance access to high-quality orthodontic care.”
