What’s happening at Align Technology?
Align Technology, the maker of Invisalign clear teeth aligners, has announced a global restructuring plan that includes 700 job cuts after missing third-quarter revenue targets.

- Job Cuts and Restructuring: While Align has not disclosed specific layoff numbers, the company anticipates $30 million in severance expenses in Q4, indicating significant reductions or transfers as part of the restructuring.
- Industry Trends: CEO Joe Hogan cited a sluggish U.S. dental market, with consumers facing inflation and opting to defer non-essential healthcare expenses.
