The Company reported significant growth in key international markets, while also maintaining steady growth in the China market.
In the first half of 2024, Angel Aligner saw an increase in the total number of case shipments, growing from approximately 95,400 cases in the same period of 2023 to 152,900.

Angel Aligner’s growth strategy is tailored to the specific needs of orthodontic professionals and patients in various regional markets.
In Europe, Angel Aligner deepened its ties with orthodontists through user-events led by Key Opinion Leaders and customer-centric localized operations.
