That's when my buy order went off.

Align is unknown to most. The company is the market leader and was the first company, in the field of invisible dental trays. The Invisalign product is now imitated by many companies, but the quality is best with Align. The advertising on social media is penetrating but effective. We play in the market health benefits of straight teeth as well as beauty ideals.

How do I know Align? I currently have one myself. 24 splints cost 3500€, plus KFO fees.

how the whole thing works?

The teeth are scanned and then brought by AI in the perfect shape, then dental splints are produced.

Align also manufactures medical devices for the jaw and dentistry.

No investment recommendation.

I am a dentist myself, we use a competitor's product. I can confirm that Align is still far superior in terms of quality, but especially in the scope of treatment. Especially in combination with medical supervision, it is far ahead of the "cheap" do-it-yourself products, which really puts the price into perspective. To be honest, the moat for the technology is quite shallow, but the lock-in effect within the practices is brutal, and the market is huge in its limitation to the industry. The classic braces will disappear, and faster than we think.

@doddelwa that's exactly what my orthodontist said, which is why I find the invest case quite nice. unfortunately, you don't hear anything good about the other providers, but you do about Align. some are even customers of a cheap one and then switched to align. thanks for your answer.

Almost ended up in my closer consideration, but the negative EPS growth over the last few years has kept me away. Certainly a good company nonetheless.

@Tom_quality_investor have not looked at the EPS because I am convinced of the product and use myself. Up to now 12.5% up, for two weeks I'm satisfied 😅 the share is holding up really well
