AI-Enabled Appliance Design

AI systems can potentially enhance an orthodontist’s custom appliance design by analyzing digital models, patient 2D and 3D scans, and patient specific treatment plans to support the orthodontist to optimize fit, comfort, and efficiency. 

Integrated with CAD/CAM and 3D printing, an orthodontist can use AI to deliver a precise, patient-specific fabrication of aligners, brackets, retainers, and functional devices.
