SheepMedical, a medical technology company driving the digital transformation of orthodontics and preventative care, today has announced it has established a subsidiary in India, SheepMedical India Private Limited, to continue its global growth.

“Our goal as a company is demonstrating the truth of our belief, “100 Years of Joyful Living Starts with New Daily Habits,” said Shinya Tabata, Chief Strategy Officer. “We seek to contribute to the smiles of people around the world by providing them with our high-quality aligner services. India is our immediate next step, and we are pleased to have an officially recognized entity established as well as an experienced and successful leader driving the expansion.”

The company has appointed Mr. Bimal Desai as Country Head to drive its business growth in India. Mr. Bimal Desai previously held leadership positions in a wide range of companies, from large corporations to start-ups, and is well-versed in the healthcare and dental sectors, most recently as Country Manager for Straumann Dental India.

“India is an important market for us with one of the largest populations of health and aesthetically conscious youth, millennials, and Gen Z, along with a growing urban population,” said Bimal Desai, Country Head and Director for SheepMedical India. “We are investing in India with a vision of making high-quality clear aligners, developed by leading Japanese orthodontists, available and accessible to the dental community and patients at an affordable price. Our focus remains on delivering the first-class service efficiency, which has been well-established in Japan.”

SheepMedical’s expansion into India is a significant step in their global expansion strategy. As a leading preventative medical company, SheepMedical is committed to providing quality and affordable orthodontic aligner services to countries around the world.
