North America remains the dominant region in the global clear aligners market and is estimated to hold 35.6% of the market share in 2024 owing to high consumer awareness and acceptance of orthodontic treatments. The presence of leading clear aligner manufacturers such as Align Technology and several other local players in the region has ensured easy availability of a wide range of clear aligners. Additionally, the region is a major exporter of clear aligners with countries like the U.S. shipping aligners worldwide. This has added to the lucrative revenues for North American clear aligner companies. Despite market saturation levels in certain pockets, continuous advances in clear aligner technology and rising orthodontic tourism is expected to sustain the dominance of North America over the forecast period.

The Asia Pacific region has emerged as the fastest growing market for clear aligners globally. Propelled by rapidly increasing consumer spending on healthcare and strong growth in the number of orthodontists, the demand for clear aligners is surging rapidly across nations such as China, Japan, and India. Unlike other dental appliances, clear aligners face fewer regulatory restrictions in Asia making them more accessible. Moreover, several domestic players have entered the market with their affordably priced clear aligners targeting the huge population base in need of orthodontic treatments. International players too have started prioritizing the Asia Pacific region owing to its immense growth opportunities, with some establishing manufacturing hubs to cater to the regional demand. The presence of a large export-oriented manufacturing sector has put the region on the global clear aligners export map. Backed by the favorable industry ecosystem and high growth potential, Asia Pacific looks all set to dominate the clear aligners market landscape in the coming years.
