We’re celebrating a new chapter for women leaders in orthodontics with the launch of Align Women Masterminds Collective.

Born out of a passion for elevating clinical and business expertise with a focus on Invisalign® treatment, the Align Women Masterminds Collective is a forum for women in the field of orthodontics to share their collective wisdom and experiences as masters of the ultimate balancing act: trailblazers in orthodontics, community champions, business leaders, and so much more.
