Align Technology, Inc, announced a new feature for the Invisalign Smile Architect software called Multiple Treatment Plans, allowing doctors to visually compare and modify orthodontic only and ortho restorative treatment plans side-by-side. The Multiple Treatment Plans are integrated into ClinCheck treatment planning software for doctors to visually compare, review, and choose the best treatment option for each patient.

Enhanced Visual Demonstrations for Patients

During an office visit, a doctor can use their iTero scanner to visually demonstrate ortho only and ortho restorative treatment simulations or submit patient’s records to then use with the features of Invisalign Smile Architect to develop a personalized ClinCheck treatment plan for their patient, whether ortho only or ortho-restorative.

Expanding Opportunities with Ortho Restorative Treatments

According to Align, ortho restorative treatment represents a growing opportunity for dental practitioners to combine the benefits of the Invisalign System with restorative treatment to present their patients with a variety of treatment options to transform their smile with a tooth mass analysis tool depicting minimal tooth reduction using the Invisalign Smile Architect ortho restorative software.
