Today's investment idea has to do with my nephews teeth


About a month ago my sister called and asked if I could take my nephew to the dentist. Being the great uncle that I am I said sure. While waiting I was browsing through some literature and came across one for a company called Align Technolgies . These folks have pioneered a new system for straightening crooked teeth. The medical term is Malocclusion.


They market a system called -Invisalign, which is "a series of clear, removable aligners that both orthodontists and dentists use as a technique to give their patients a beautiful smile. With more than ten million unique aligners made to date, Align is one of the largest manufacturers of mass customized products in the world". The system sure beats metal braces.


I did some additional due diligence when I got home and was very impressed with the company and its products. The company released their latest quarterly financials on July 25th and realized revenue growth 44% yr over yr.


I'm no expert on teeth nor dentistry, however, I believe these guys have really carved out quite a niche for themselves and the future looks bright.


Please do your own due diligence before investing a penny of your own money.
