Align Technology has introduced new innovations across its Invisalign Digital Platform to help doctors improve treatment planning, patient communication, & clinical workflows. The company aims to provide more predictable outcomes through advanced digital tools and connected dental solutions.
OrthoCare Connect introduces new advancements across Align Oral Health Suite and Invisalign digital solutions. The updates enhance treatment planning, visualization, and patient engagement. The new technology will help to comprehend the consequences of the treatment and justify the recommendations.
These solutions were developed by the company to help doctors gain more insight into the whole process of digital treatment. Moreover, the company is continuously developing its approach to connected health experiences in both orthodontic and dental practices globally.
Align Technology Enhances Digital Treatment Planning and Patient Engagement
The new features in Align Oral Health Suite consist of the integration of AI-powered Align X-ray Insights & a new gum line visualizer. This allows doctors to identify oral health conditions more effectively and help patients understand available treatment options clearly. In addition, Invisalign Outcome Simulator Pro allows for visual simulation of treatments that can be achieved by Invisalign.
“These latest treatment planning and patient engagement innovations for Invisalign were developed to help our customers visualize treatment options and outcomes, engage with and treat their patients with confidence, and simplify clinical workflows while more fully connecting steps in the digital treatment journey,” commented Sreelakshmi Kolli, Align Technology executive vice president and chief product and digital officer. “By streamlining complex processes and integrating every step, we’re helping doctors plan with greater precision, work more efficiently, and treat each patient with confidence, delivering even better patient experiences with the predictable Invisalign treatment outcomes doctors and their patients expect.”
The 3D Tissue Animation feature added to ClinCheck software allows doctors to show patients potential facial soft tissue changes after Invisalign treatment. It improves treatment discussions by providing personalized visual simulations of expected aesthetic outcomes. This way, patients will be able to visualize the likely improvements of their smile and facial contours. This improvement, according to Align Technology, facilitates personalized discussions between the doctors and patients.
“One of the most valuable aspects of these digital planning tools is the ability to show patients the complete picture,” said Dr. Lovedeep Randhawa, a general dentist based in British Columbia, Canada. “By integrating the iTero Lumina™ scan with Gumlines viewing tool, Invisalign® Outcome Simulator Pro, and Invisalign Smile Architect™, I can help patients understand how tooth position, gingival architecture, bite, function, and restorative needs are interconnected and influence their long-term oral health. When they can clearly visualize those relationships, the conversation shifts from cosmetic improvements to long-term oral health outcomes, helping them understand why treatment is recommended and make informed decisions with confidence.”
Furthermore, iTero Design Suite adds AI-based crown and bridge design capabilities, along with a new AI Splint feature. Such capabilities assist in helping doctors streamline their same-day restorative workflow. The company continues strengthening its digital ecosystem through innovative solutions like the Invisalign Specifix Attachment System and integrated treatment tools. These advancements improve orthodontic workflows.
