Align Technology announced today that the Invisalign System with Mandibular Advancement featuring Occlusal Blocks (MAOB) is now commercially available in Thailand. The MAOB system is designed for growing patients with Class II skeletal malocclusions, offering a solid occlusal block that advances the mandible while aligning the teeth. The launch expands Align’s Class II treatment portfolio and marks the first time the product is offered in a Southeast Asian market.
The MAOB system targets patients aged 10‑16 in the late mixed or early permanent dentition stages, a demographic that represents a significant portion of Align’s global customer base. By adding a solid‑block appliance to its clear‑aligner lineup, Align aims to increase treatment efficiency and improve patient compliance, potentially boosting case volumes in emerging markets where demand for orthodontic care is growing.
This product launch is a strategic move to strengthen Align’s presence in Thailand and other Asian markets, where the company has been expanding its digital workflow tools and patient financing partnerships. The introduction of MAOB is expected to enhance Align’s competitive position in the Class II segment and support the company’s broader goal of capturing higher‑margin, digitally enabled orthodontic cases worldwide.
