Align Technology was founded by Zia Chishti and Kelsey Wirth in 1997 and began working on the development of a clear aligner.^[7] Align received FDA clearance to market the Invisalign system in 1998 and it was first marketed in 2000.^[2] Align Technology went public on January 26, 2001 on the Nasdaq Stock Market.^[3]

In 2010 the company received a warning letter from the FDA regarding its failure to report serious reactions to Invisalign.^[4]^[5]

In March 2011 Align acquired the Israeli company Cadent for $190 million; Cadent manufactured intraoral scanners that included 3D imaging, as well as software to display the acquired images and to plan treatment.^[6]

The company's sales reached $1 billion for the first time in 2016 and its products were being used in about 8% of people who got braces.^[7] In 2017 the company was faced with the challenge of the expiration of its patents on its Invisalign system starting in October 2017 and the beginning of generic competition.^[7]
