On 12 September 2025, more than 500 dental professionals gathered at the Leonardo Royal Hotel, London, for the MiSmile NEXT Conference and Gala – marking 10 years since Dr Sandeep Kumar founded the MiSmile Network.
What began in 2015 with just 20 practices has grown into a thriving community of over 500, delivering more than 60,000 Invisalign smiles and raising £350,000 for Operation Smile. NEXT combined world-class education with celebration, energy and connection, reflecting MiSmile’s mission to give patients beautiful smiles while supporting members to grow their practices.
Highlights included sessions from futurist Amelia Kallman, entrepreneur Bejay Mulenga MBE, communication expert Nigel Risner, and MiSmile Clinical Directors Dr Bhumita Shah and Dr Oliver Smart. Align Technology’s leaders also underlined their ongoing commitment to the network.
Dr Sandeep Kumar, Founder and CEO, said: “When I started MiSmile 10 years ago, I could never have imagined the journey we would take together. From 20 practices to over 500, we have built something truly special – a community united by the simple mission of giving patients beautiful smiles. This milestone is not only a celebration of what we’ve achieved, but a launchpad for what comes next. MiSmile is evolving into the Home of Practice Growth, supporting our members with the tools, training and inspiration they need to thrive for the next decade and beyond.”
The MiSmile NEXT Conference and Gala 2025 was more than an anniversary. It was a moment to reflect on a decade of growth, to celebrate what has been achieved, and to look forward with confidence and excitement.
As one delegate summed it up: “It’s been life-changing to be part of MiSmile – and I cannot wait for the next 10 years.”
