Zenyum’s Real Smile Stories is 2021’s Version Of The Happiness Project

Zenyum's Real Smile Stories is 2021's Version Of The Happiness Project
Zenyum’s Real Smile Stories revolve around a brand new smile courtesy of the expertise and craftsmanship from the orthodontists behind the brand’s aligners, whitening toothpastes and electric sonic-powered toothbrushes.

One might not know this, but the genesis of Zenyum’s brand name is a simple play on the Bahasa word “Senyum” which means smile. The “Z” makes it universal — it is used in pinyin romanisation in Mandarin, a loan word in Swedish and used as-is in Swahili or Zulu. Zenyum’s Real Smile Stories centre around happiness, the one emotion many of us can use more of right now. Be it a goal, #GoodVibesOnly, a state of mind or the dream of an achievable outcome. The latter is possible all thanks to Zenyum’s Invisible Braces, a tool these trio of men are currently using.

Zenyum Real Smile Stories
Wei Church, PhD student & Zenyum customer
“Coming to Singapore to pursue a PhD in Materials Science and Engineering meant following my dreams but also having to be away from my family. Thankfully, my determination helped me push through and accomplish what I set out to do. Another aspect of self-improvement I wanted to achieve was my smile. Before Zenyum, I had doubts about whether my teeth could be straightened but this was achieved with the Zenyum Invisible Braces. Together with top dentists who pushed the boundaries, I was able to get my dream smile. My smile journey is a reminder that our dreams are never too big to accomplish. Now I can confidently smile through all my challenges.”

Kevin, Dancer, influencer & Zenyum customer
“Dance is hard work but I love it. To me it’s more than just a dream, it’s my safe space where I can truly express myself. Like most parents, mine wanted me to be a lawyer or doctor and sometimes training would get so tough that I would have doubts about having chosen this profession. Although the journey towards my dream is typically never easy, the Invisible Braces treatment with Zenyum is surprisingly fuss-free as the aligners are easy to remove whenever I need to — especially during performances. Zenyum also has an app for their team to check in on my progress and send me reminders when it’s time to switch my aligner sets. The ease of treatment allows me to follow through with my hectic schedule with a peace of mind. Achieving my show-stopping smile never felt so easy.”

Naazym, Interior design enthusiast & Zenyum customer
“As someone who values social interaction, I found it difficult to stay home during the circuit breaker period. Thankfully, my passion for interior design kept me occupied and active. Being able to express my creativity freely, tune in to my dreams, and align talent and passion is something that I am very grateful for. That’s why Zenyum stood out to me — their aligner treatments are custom-designed by top local dentists to suit my needs. Not only did Zenyum help me achieve my perfect set of teeth, but they also made me realise I am capable of designing the life that I want to live. Let Zenyum Invisible Braces help you become that person, one aligner at a time.”
