With the continuous development of the times, more and more people are now beginning to pay attention to their own appearance, especially whether the facial features are beautiful or not, so plastic surgery hospitals and beauty shops have taken the opportunity to make a lot of money. However, whether it is a plastic surgery hospital or a beauty shop, many goods are mostly priced, but if you want to change your teeth, you may need to spend tens of thousands of yuan.
Of course, at the beginning, you will find that most of them are mainly wearing metal orthosis, and the correction cycle is relatively long, and the price is about thousands of yuan. However, as more and more people have demand for orthoses, invisible braces have been developed. After the product was unveiled, China's invisible orthodontic market is also becoming more and more popular, from the relevant statistics, China's invisible orthodontic turnover increased from 2015 200 million US dollars, to 2020 1.5 billion US dollars, compared with a growth rate of 44.4%. In addition, it is expected that by 2030, China's invisible orthodontic market share will reach about 11.9 billion US dollars.
However, behind this huge income represents huge profits, and even makes invisible braces a profiteering industry. After all, the price of an imported invisible braces is about 10,000 yuan, but the price is as high as 50,000 yuan, which means that the difference between the real cost and the price is 40,000 yuan. So who actually took the money? After understanding, it is likely to be a major dental clinic, first of all, if these clinics are engaged in orthodontics, they must be equipped with advanced equipment, including imported oral scanning equipment, but also to bear the salary of dentists and assistants, rent, water and electricity and so on. But even so, the price of invisible braces is sky-high.
Of course, in addition to the dental clinic, the upstream braces suppliers have also grabbed a lot of profits, take a set of invisible braces, the gross profit of the upstream supplier may reach about 70%, if calculated according to the price of fifty thousand yuan, the supplier's every invisible braces sold, gross profit may be tens of thousands of yuan. Take the revenue of a company called Angelalign Invisible Braces Supplier, the company's total revenue in 2020 reached about 800 million yuan, nearly doubled from 400 million yuan in 2018. This is the sale of invisible braces, which means that dental clinics and medical device suppliers have become the main members of the profiteering.
According to the above data, the annual revenue of invisible braces suppliers reached 800 million yuan, which is enough to show that this industry is indeed a profiteering industry. However, for the majority of Chinese consumers, the price of a hidden braces is indeed not cheap, and even many ordinary families cannot afford it. As a result, many times, for those who need it, they will eventually have to pay the bill, and the supplier is the biggest beneficiary.
