Over six million patients choose world´s most advanced clear aligner system
KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 18 (Bernama) – Over six million patients have begun treatment with Invisalign – the most advanced clear aligner system in the world, including 1.4 million teenage patients.
This is a significant milestone for Align Technology Inc. and over 150,000 Invisalign-trained doctors worldwide, reflecting accelerating adoption of Invisalign treatment by adults and teens alike, a statement said.
The six millionth Invisalign patient, Yuzhe Wang, is a 12-year-old student of the International School, Beijing who began treatment in October 2018 using Invisalign Comprehensive with Mandibular Advancement treatment with Dr Jiawei Wo from Yuxueyuan Dental clinic.
Dr Wo said Invisalign treatment with Mandibular Advancement is great, because it moves the lower jaw forward, while simultaneously aligning the teeth.
“With the Invisalign system, my patients need much fewer appointments than with traditional orthodontic appliances. This allows them to continue their studies and daily activities without interruption,” Dr Wo added.
Meanwhile, Align Technology senior vice president and managing director, Asia Pacific, Julie Tay said: “China is our fastest growing country market with approximately 70 per cent annual growth rate. I believe there is an enormous opportunity in the region for Invisalign providers to treat millions of young patients like Yuzhe.
Yuzhe will be featured in an upcoming Invisalign global campaign, entitled ‘6 Million Invisalign Smiles’ that follows Yuzhe and her family through her treatment journey. The campaign will highlight key reasons why they decided to choose Invisalign clear aligners to help her achieve a new, beautiful smile.

EXPERIENCE HARVEST SEASON IN THE FRUIT KINGDOM, TAIWAN
TAIPEI, Taiwan, Dec 18 (Bernama-BUSINESS WIRE) -- The Council of Agriculture (COA) has recently launched 170 itineraries featuring 200 farms with 36 fruits around the country, hoping to attract both domestic and foreign tourists to experience the sweet fun of fruit picking.
This press release features multimedia. View the full release here:https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20181217005907/en/
Taiwan is known by many as the "Kingdom of Fruit.” Not only countless varieties of delicious, sweet fruit available year-round, but the pure fun of picking seasonal fruit right off the tree or vine is like nothing else.
The subtropical island-nation produces fruits all year round. Papayas, guavas, and pineapples are available in four seasons. Spring to summer is the best period to taste the fruits of Taiwan, especially loquats, plums and watermelons as well as mangos. Autumn to winter is also good for many fruits such as grapefruits, citrus, tomatoes and strawberry, according to COA.
In addition to enjoying fruit in season and at the source, tourists can take fruit as a point of departure for diving deeper into local culture and features as they experience the pinnacle of seasonal flavor over the shortest distance between farm and table.
Gift boxes with seasonal fruits, traditional cuisine and an adoption program for fruit trees that are supervised by COA are also available for tourists to experience.
Agri ezgo, a travel guide and information website set by COA to introduce Taiwan-grown fruits and related industry, includes six categories such as seasonal fruits picking, grommet food, recommend souvenir and feature story.
Meanwhile, a special designed fruit season calendar offers information that introduces the best fruit in each growing region.
The multi-language website, which is available in Chinese, English, and Japanese, provides regulations and procedures for exporting fruits products to travel outside Taiwan. Brochure in Korean, Thai and Vietnamese is also available on the website.
