GuidedSMILE® and Hiossen Implants Announce Strategic Partnership to Expand Access to Advanced Guided Surgery Across North America

INDEPENDENCE, Ohio, Oct. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- GuidedSMILE^® has entered into a strategic partnership with Hiossen Implants, the U.S. subsidiary of Osstem Implant, bringing together Hiossen's implant systems, and nationwide clinician network with GuidedSMILE's patented stackable surgical guide technology.

The collaboration will give more dentists access to an integrated approach to guided full-arch treatment, combining implant technology, digital planning, guided surgery, hands-on education and clinical support.

Hiossen has built a substantial clinical education infrastructure through its Advanced Dental Implant Research and Education Center (AIC), helping clinicians develop their skills through hands-on training, live surgery and ongoing education. GuidedSMILE has developed guided workflows that help clinicians plan and execute complex full-arch treatment, from surgical planning and bone reduction through implant placement and the restorative workflow.

Together, GuidedSMILE's proven full-arch expertise and Hiossen's implant performance create a simple, predictable full-arch solution. Clinicians will have more opportunities to learn guided full-arch surgery, gain hands-on experience with the workflow and incorporate it into their practices with the technology and support behind them.

"Full-arch treatment has a lot of moving parts, and no single piece of technology solves all of them," said Alan Banks, President of GuidedSMILE. "Hiossen brings tremendous experience in implant dentistry, education and clinician support. We bring a guided workflow built specifically around the challenges of full-arch treatment. Putting those strengths together gives doctors a practical way to learn the workflow, use it and have support behind them when they do."

GuidedSMILE's technology portfolio includes seven patented stackable guide innovations and has supported more than 50,000 full-arch procedures while producing over 350,000 surgical guides. Its guided workflows are designed to coordinate surgical and restorative planning while providing clinicians with a structured approach to complex full-arch treatment.

The relationship is designed to broaden access to guided full-arch education and technology across North America. Through Hiossen's customized education programs, clinical network and nationwide organization, more dentists will have the opportunity to learn and adopt guided workflows with access to the implant technology, surgical guidance, education and ongoing support needed to bring those workflows into everyday clinical practice.
