Thanks for the reminder and your excellent DD, mustang. There may be new eyes looking at RIGH, unaware of its CEO's history.
This is for them:
For those new to RightSmile, here's a little taste of the activities Aaron (he now goes by "Angel") Stanz was involved in before he "reverse mergered" a company he invented on the spot, BG Medical Technologies, with RightSmile, a teeth-whitening... err..."company."
In February, 2009, RIGH's (now) CEO, at that time "Aaron" Stanz, was charged by the Illinois Attorney General with running a "phone cramming scam", placing unauthorized charges on consumers' phone bills through his company USCreditFind.

Here's a KOMO NEWS VIDEO naming Stanz's USCreditFind, and explaining how the scam worked:

BUT EVEN AFTER THAT PLEA DEAL, Aaron/Angel morphed USCreditFind into USMusicfind, another scam, but stayed out of Illinois.
SEE:
Here's a complaint about USMusicFind that mentions Angel and CodeZero Media, Angel's company.

Here's a PR that explains Angel's "use" of Codezero Media at the time he "started" RIGH:

EXCERPTED HERE:
Angel continued to form and advise several strong software startups with an emphasis upon ecommerce and merchant services. This led to establishing a highly sought after consulting firm, Codezero Media, that served the online pharmaceutical market. Codezero managed clients processing millions of dollars in online transactions weekly. This culminated in the production of two ecommerce engines that served as the technology foundation through several future Codezero Media related companies. The ecommerce product continues to be updated using recent technologies and is currently being considered for the medical cannabis market. It's sister product to an e-wallet application, which was utilized for several LEC billed products (direct to home phone billing) that together grossed $8 million annually. Other notable online products developed include social, dating, and entertainment websites that have received design awards as well as attention in Rolling Stone magazine. Codezero Media continues to serve as Mr. Stanz's technology incubator.
END EXCERPT
And here, the web developer that Angel contracted with in the Philippines mentions his assignment with CodeZero Media:

Here's his employment history (from above link):
So when the BGMedTech site mentions a "branch office" in the Philippines, it is/was this freelance developer, Raul, who's available for $15 per hour.
And here's the link showing that USMusicFind.com, the successor to the scam USCreditFind from Angel's Codezero Media, was developed by "Raul" for USMusicFind/Codezero:

From there, it was a short hop to BudGenius.com, the next scam, STILL STUCK IN 2011!.
When asked by getsmarter82 "what happened to USCreditFind after that case (the fraud charges by the Illinois Attorney General) was resolved?", Angel responded with a non-public self-serving email that boiled down to "Its time had passed, but I WROTE A WHITE PAPER!"
Wotta load of crap.
Angel claims the "home phone billing" business dried up, yet he went on to build, through Codezero Media, USMUSICFIND AFTER the Illinois case!
See this exposé at the Daily Kos, a YEAR AND A HALF AFTER the Illinois scam settlement was reached:

These complaints all came in OVER A YEAR AFTER Angel copped to the plea bargain deal for USCreditFind with The Illinois Attorney General.
So much for "home phone billing" having run its course.
This Due Diligence has been out here for some time. My2mustangs spoke of it long ago.
AND THIS IS THE MAN YOU'RE TRUSTING IF YOU BUY RIGH SHARES!
Hope this helps with YOUR DD. As always, question everything and do your own additional DD as well.
If you are new to RIGH, beware... the air is coming out of RIGH's PUMPBAG, and the SEC is on the lookout for scammers . PharmaJanes (AEGY) and Medical Greens (SKTO) were halted late last week.
