Impress

Impress is a prominent global brand in the field of modern orthodontics, primarily recognized for its specialized clear aligner treatments. Founded in Barcelona in 2019 by orthodontist Dr. Khaled Kasem and entrepreneurs Diliara and Vladimir Lupenko, Impress has rapidly expanded to become a leading chain of orthodontic clinics with a presence in over 160 cities across multiple countries, including the US and Europe (Spain, UK, Italy, France, Germany, Ukraine, Portugal). The core philosophy of Impress revolves around combining cutting-edge technology with expert medical care to provide efficient, safe, and aesthetically pleasing orthodontic solutions. Their approach is doctor-led, meaning all treatment plans are designed and overseen by licensed orthodontists. They utilize advanced patented technology, which includes 3D intraoral scanners, CBCT X-rays for comprehensive oral health assessment, and proprietary AI-based treatment planning software. This technology allows for precise diagnosis and the development of highly personalized treatment plans, considering both tooth and root positions for more predictable and faster results. Impress offers various clear aligner options suitable for a wide range of orthodontic issues, from mild to complex cases like overbite, crossbite, crowding, and gaps. They cater to adults, teenagers, and even children with specialized "Impress Kids" and "Teens Plus" aligner systems. Beyond aligners, some Impress clinics also offer supplementary services like professional teeth whitening and retainers. A key differentiator for Impress is its blended care model, which combines in-person clinic visits for initial consultations and check-ups with virtual monitoring and support through their dedicated mobile app. This app allows patients to track their progress, communicate with their medical team seven days a week, and potentially reduce the number of in-clinic appointments, offering a convenient and flexible treatment experience. Impress emphasizes patient comfort and a modern clinic environment, with locations designed to be welcoming and aesthetically pleasing. They aim to make high-quality orthodontic care more accessible and affordable, often providing flexible payment plans and accepting various insurance and health savings options. Their commitment to patient satisfaction is reflected in their focus on personalized care and continuous improvement of their processes.
