Angelalign Technology Inc has expanded its iOrtho platform to include direct integration with Dexis, Shining 3D, and Panda scanners. The update builds on existing support for Medit, Allied Star, and 3Shape, as well as compatibility with other intraoral scanners. With the new integrations, scans feed directly into iOrtho, according to the company, streamlining the digital workflow for orthodontic practices.

iOrtho 5.3 Release Features Multiple Updates

The new integrations are part of the iOrtho 5.3 update, which introduces several features aimed at improving treatment efficiency and clinical precision. These include virtual roots generated from panoramic x-rays, STL file download options, and a new patient-facing mobile app.

Virtual Root Visualization From Panoramic X-rays

The iOrtho 5.3 release includes a patent-pending feature that uses panoramic x-rays to create virtual root visualizations. According to the company, Angel Aligner’s algorithm achieves 90% greater accuracy than traditional libraries without requiring additional scans or radiation exposure.

STL Download Functionality

Doctors can now download up to three STL files from approved treatment plans, according to the company. These files are available with or without attachments, offering flexibility in managing cases and appliances.

myAngelSmile App for Patient Engagement

The update also includes the launch of the myAngelSmile mobile app for patients. The app allows users to track daily aligner wear time, view days remaining on their current aligner, and receive reminders to replace or reinsert aligners.

“At Angel, our priority is to focus on developing smarter, more adaptable tools that make treatment planning easier while improving outcomes for patients,” said Brandy Long, head of clinical operations at Angelalign. “The iOrtho 5.3 release is another step forward, equipping doctors with the technology they need to practice with confidence and efficiency.”

Growth Context

The update comes as Angelalign reports a 33% year-over-year growth. The company attributes its growth to incorporating customer feedback and addressing the evolving needs of orthodontic providers.
