Dr Tony Dental receives Diamond Elite certification at the 2026 Southeast Asia Invisalign Forum

The Southeast Asia Invisalign Forum (S.E.A Invisalign Forum 2026) ran over two days, 5–6 March 2026, at Thisky Hall Sala in Ho Chi Minh City, drawing more than 1,000 clinicians from across the region and beyond. At the forum, Dr Tony Dental further consolidated its highly specialised direction through significant certifications and clinical updates.

Diamond Elite certification and the leading Solo Practice position

Dr Tony Dental formally received the Diamond Elite title from Align Technology. In the solo practice segment, Dr Hồ Lê Bảo Ân holds the leading position in southern Vietnam for the fourth consecutive year. The ranking reflects strict quality control over every case and a steady level of clinical output across the years.

2026 technology and clinical appliance updates

The forum announced the latest biomechanical improvements, due to enter treatment protocols from mid-2026, which raise the precision available for cases at the practice:

• Refined strategies for specialist orthodontic intervention in children and teenagers.
• Integration of 3D FaceScan facial data and the next generation of directly 3D-printed material.
• Use of the IPE palatal expander combined with a facemask, and buttons designed as one piece with the aligner.
• Updated biomechanics for complex Class III malocclusion (underbite), specific to the skeletal patterns of Asian patients.

A first-hand account of treatment

The forum also featured a live presentation in English by Âu Thụy Ân, an Invisalign case under Dr Ân's care. The talk covered how the clear aligner system fits into an ordinary working life, the course of the bite correction, and the effect of a new appearance on building a personal brand. This first-hand account added a practical perspective to the international panel discussions.
