ClearCorrect Holdings, Inc. (brand: ClearCorrect) is a U.S. orthodontic device company headquartered at 21 Cypress Boulevard, Round Rock, Texas (north of Austin). It was founded in 2006, was formerly venture-backed (investor Revelation Partners), and has been a wholly owned subsidiary of Switzerland-based Straumann Holding AG (SIX: STMN) since its acquisition in 2017 for roughly USD 150–152 million. At acquisition it reported ~200 employees and 2016 sales of about USD 32 million; Straumann cites ClearCorrect's HQ in Round Rock as the base for its orthodontics business unit. It is not separately publicly traded, and current standalone financials are not disclosed.
ClearCorrect designs and manufactures custom clear orthodontic aligners sold to dentists and orthodontists, not directly to consumers. Per Straumann, a clinician submits an intraoral scan or impression; ClearCorrect builds a digital treatment plan, 3D-prints progressive models, and thermoforms transparent thermoplastic aligners, which are shipped back to the provider. Product lines referenced publicly include the Flex and Unlimited treatment options; patent records also show retainers/retainer cases and mandibular repositioning appliances. Manufacturing is in the U.S., and the company has described operating a large Stratasys 3D-printer fleet. This is an operating company with real products, not a shell licensor.
On litigation posture, the tracked data show 1 case as defendant and 0 as plaintiff — consistent with an operating company being sued rather than an assertion-driven entity. The sole tracked matter is Align Technology, Inc. v. ClearCorrect Operating, LLC et al., No. 6:24-cv-00187 (W.D. Tex., Waco Division, filed April 11, 2024), in which rival Invisalign maker Align asserted nine patents covering aligner materials, treatment-planning methods, and composite imaging. Co-defendants include ClearCorrect Operating, LLC, ClearCorrect Holdings, Inc., Institut Straumann AG, and Straumann USA, LLC; ClearCorrect counterclaimed for declaratory judgments of non-infringement/invalidity and brought antitrust counterclaims. Waco is a patent-heavy venue, though not the Eastern District of Texas. The dispute continues a long-running Align–ClearCorrect conflict that earlier produced the 2016 Supreme Court decision ClearCorrect v. ITC on the ITC's jurisdiction over imported digital data.
