(NASDAQ: ALGN) pioneered the use of digital technology in orthodontics through the development of the Invisalign system, a series of clear, removable aligners that provide an alternative to traditional metal braces. Since its founding in 1997 by Zia Chishti and Kelsey Wirth, the Tempe, Arizona–based company has expanded its focus to include intraoral scanners, CAD/CAM software for dental laboratories and comprehensive digital dentistry solutions. The company’s signature Invisalign system leverages 3D imaging and computer-aided design (CAD) to create customized aligners that gradually reposition teeth, improving patient comfort and treatment predictability. Align’s iTero intraoral scanners capture high-resolution digital impressions, streamlining treatment planning and reducing the need for conventional molds. In 2019, Align further broadened its digital portfolio with the acquisition of exocad, augmenting its software capabilities for dental labs to design restorations, prosthetics and orthodontic appliances. Today, Align Technology serves dental professionals in more than 100 countries through a combination of direct sales offices and distributor partnerships. The company maintains manufacturing facilities in the United States and other strategic locations to meet global demand and ensure product consistency. With ongoing investments in research and development, Align continues to enhance its clinical applications, expand digital workflows and introduce patient engagement tools aimed at improving outcomes and practice efficiency worldwide.AI Generated.
