The dental aligners market refers to orthodontic treatment solutions that use a series of clear, removable aligners to gradually correct tooth misalignment, spacing, crowding, and bite-related issues. These aligners are custom-fabricated using digital scanning, 3D imaging, and computer-aided design technologies to ensure precise fit and controlled tooth movement. Treatment services typically include digital impression taking, treatment planning, aligner manufacturing, periodic monitoring, and post-treatment retention, delivered through dental clinics, orthodontic practices, and increasingly via direct-to-consumer platforms under professional supervision. The market for dental aligners encompasses product-based and service-oriented offerings that provide access to clear aligner therapy across aesthetic and functional orthodontic applications. Market growth is driven by rising demand for discreet and comfortable orthodontic solutions, increasing awareness of dental aesthetics, technological advancements in digital dentistry, and growing adult orthodontic adoption. Key participants include established orthodontic companies, dental service organizations, and emerging direct-to-consumer brands operating across private clinics, hospitals, and specialized dental centers.

Key Findings of the Study
Increase in Prevalence of Malocclusion
Occlusion refers to the alignment and contact relationship between the upper and lower teeth. Any deviation from normal alignment is termed malocclusion, a condition characterized by improper positioning of teeth and an incorrect relationship between the maxillary and mandibular dental arches. Common forms of malocclusion include overcrowding, spacing issues, overbites, underbites, and crossbites, which often lead to functional bite problems. In European patients, misalignment of upper teeth may result in cheek or lip biting, while lower dental misalignment frequently causes tongue irritation and discomfort.
Malocclusion is widely recognized as one of the most prevalent oral conditions, following dental caries and periodontal disease. Across Europe, malocclusion is often regarded as a natural biological variation rather than a disease, with treatment decisions influenced by functional needs, long-term oral health considerations, and psychosocial factors such as facial aesthetics and self-confidence. Evidence from European studies highlights notable geographic and ethnic variations in malocclusion prevalence, reflecting differences in genetics, dietary patterns, and access to orthodontic care, which collectively support sustained demand for orthodontic and clear aligner treatments across the region.
