Align Technology
Santa Clara, CA
www.aligntech.com
Align Technology designs,
manufactures and markets Invisalign, a
proprietary method for treating
malocclusion, or the misalignment of teeth.
Invisalign corrects malocclusion using a
series of clear, nearly invisible, removable
appliances that gently move teeth to a
desired final position. Because it does not
rely on the use of metal or ceramic brackets
and wires, Invisalign significantly reduces
the aesthetic and other limitations
associated with braces. Invisalign is
appropriate for treating adults and teens.
Align Technology was founded in March 1997
and received FDA clearance to market
Invisalign in 1998. Today, the Invisalign
product family includes Invisalign,
Invisalign Teen, Invisalign Assist,
Invisalign Express, and Vivera Retainers.
