The demand for clear aligner treatment is growing at a rapid pace due to increased demand for aesthetic dentistry and knowledge about malocclusions. Habits like thumb sucking, and mouth breathing can contribute to this dental malalignment. According to a new report published by UnivDatos Markets Insights, the clear aligner market was valued at more than US$3.8 billion in 2020 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of around 25% from 2022 to 2028.
Experts in the field suggest that aligners are chosen because of increased awareness of recent advancements in dental hygiene, the advent of social media information, and a shift in beauty standards. These have increased the adoption of clear aligners, leading to market growth.

Three million teens worldwide have chosen to have Invisalign treatment in Kochi, over braces, with experts citing the reliable and discreet nature of clear aligners as reasons for teenagers opting for Invisalign over fixed alternatives. A clinical trial with forty patients demonstrated that Invisalign treatment with mandibular advancement is effective in treating Class II malocclusion in growing teens.
One of our Invisalign patient’s mother Reena Mathew says she chose this for its simple and predictable nature. She claims that her son’s Invisalign journey was hassle-free, with only a few appointments, as he is taking board examinations this year. Traditional braces may have hampered his education owing to hectic schedules in 10th standard and the requirement for repeated appointments.
