The global clear aligners market size was valued at USD 3.76 billion in 2024. The market is projected to grow from USD 4.23 billion in 2025 to USD 10.17 billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 13.4% during the forecast period. Fortune Business Insights™ presents this information in its report titled “Clear Aligners Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Patient Age Group (Teenager and Adult), By Material (Polyurethane/Co-polyester, Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol (PETG), and Others), By End-user (Dentist & Orthodontist Owned Practices and Others), and Regional Forecast, 2025-2032”.

Clear, customized, transparent trays for teeth are gaining global traction due to the rising prevalence of dental malocclusion, now the third most critical dental issue globally, affecting 39-93% of teenagers and adolescents, as per the J Dent & Oral Disord 2024 data. Rising healthcare spending and growing awareness are fueling market penetration. 

OrthoFX Received FDA Approval for its NiTime Aligners to Improve Treatment Outcomes

In May 2024, OrthoFX received FDA approval for its NiTime aligners, the first clear aligners designed specifically for shorter wear time. This innovation addresses patient compliance and adds a new dimension to treatment flexibility, driving product adoption.    

Various Advantages Associated with the Product to Accentuate the Growth of the Industry

The global shift toward clear aligners over traditional braces is driven by their superior aesthetic, comfort, and customization. Companies are actively investing in R&D and launching new products such as Bausch Health’s OraFit. Market players also focus on professional training to boost adoption. Strategic moves such as Henry Schein’s joint venture with Casa Schmidt in January 2021 are expanding market reach and awareness, further accelerating growth. 

However, the growing influence of the DTC business model is likely to obstruct the clear aligners market growth.
