Align Technology joins S&P 500 Index

Align Technology has been added by the financial services company Standard and Poor's to the S&P 500 Index.

The firm will be added to the S&P 500 Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS) Health Care Supplies Sub-Industry index, reflecting the considerable growth the company has undergone in the last few years.

Over the past 20 years, Align has experienced success in promoting the digitalisation of the teeth-straightening process through its Invisalign system and iTero intraoral scanners, which have been used to treat more than 4.5 million patients.

It was also recently announced that more than one million teenage patients worldwide have commenced treatment with the Invisalign clear aligner system, underlining the progress Align has made in reaching out to this demographic specifically.

Joe Hogan, Align's president and chief executive officer, said: "This major milestone for the company reflects the significant impact that our technology and innovations have had on the orthodontic market."
