SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 21, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The global clear aligners market size is expected to reach USD 6.0 billion by 2027, expanding at a CAGR of 23.1%, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Clear aligners are invisible and discreet braces developed from thermoformed materials like copolyester or polycarbonate plastic and CAD 3D printing technology, acting as an alternative to traditional braces. According to the FDA, the clear aligner system helps in positioning the teeth by the means of continuous gentle force and are developed to treat mild to moderate malocclusion. According to WHO, malocclusion is the third most prevalent dental disease after dental caries and periodontal disease globally. Malocclusion of the teeth causes the problem of misalignment which can later lead to severe oral health complications like hard and soft tissue trauma. This condition is hereditary and can be passed from one generation to another.
Key suggestions from the report:
- The teenage segment emerged as the largest consumer segment in 2019, as teenagers are increasingly opting for the orthodontic device because of its inconspicuous characteristics and comfort
- The standalone practices segment reciprocated the largest share in 2019 as standalone practitioners are readily adopting the orthodontic device and are equipped with advanced digital technologies
- North America dominated the market in 2019 owing to increasing demand for new technologies, a large pool of key players, rising prevalence of dental disorders, and advanced healthcare infrastructure in the region
- In Asia Pacific, the market is expected to reciprocate the highest CAGR over the forecast period.

To date, over 1.0 million teenagers have adopted the orthodontic treatment.
