A BETTER WAY TO TREAT DENTAL WOES
Today, we're looking at a company that's disrupting the orthodontics market...
For many, achieving "the perfect smile" takes years of work. Traditional braces used to be the only game in town... But they can be uncomfortable and unappealing.
Now, "invisible" orthodontics is changing the game. This technology uses clear, custom retainers to gradually shift patients' teeth over time...
The leader in this space, Align Technology (ALGN), produces the popular Invisalign system. Patients prefer Invisalign's subtle appearance. And since the retainers can be removed at any time, it's more flexible than traditional treatments.
Dentists and orthodontists have used Align's products to treat more than 5 million patients to date. And they're still gaining popularity... Align recently reported first-quarter revenues of $436 million, up more than 40% from the same quarter a year ago.
As you can see below, Align's stock is soaring. Shares are up more than 140% over the past year. As Invisalign continues to gain popularity over traditional braces, expect this stock to continue higher...
