Align Technology is a medical device company best known for Invisalign, a system of clear removable aligners used to straighten teeth as an alternative to fixed metal braces. It was founded in 1997 by Zia Chishti and Kelsey Wirth, who developed the idea of using a series of computer designed plastic trays to move teeth in small increments, and the first Invisalign product reached the market in 1999.
The company combines three connected pieces: digital scanning through its iTero intraoral scanners, treatment planning software that models how teeth will move, and large scale manufacturing of custom aligners. Each patient case produces a unique set of trays, so the manufacturing operation is built around mass customisation rather than standard production runs, using three dimensional printing and automated finishing.
Customers are orthodontists and general dentists, who use the scanners and planning tools in their practices and prescribe aligner treatment. Align also sells restorative and diagnostic software that fits into the same digital workflow, and it reports cumulative patient counts in the tens of millions.
Operations span research and development, software engineering, manufacturing, clinical affairs, regulatory and commercial teams, with major sites in the United States, Costa Rica, Mexico, Poland, Spain, China and India.
