ADAPTIVE ORTHODONTIC TREATMENT

Abstract:

A computer readable medium comprises instructions that, when executed by one or more processor, cause the one or more processor to receive image data of an actual condition of a patient's dental arch at a stage of an orthodontic treatment plan, compare the image data of the actual condition of the patient's dental arch to a planned condition of the patient's dental arch for the stage of the orthodontic treatment plan, identify one or more clinical signs that the actual condition of the patient's dental arch has a deviation from the planned condition of the patient's dental arch for the stage of the orthodontic treatment plan based on a result of the comparing, and determine one or more corrective actions for the orthodontic treatment.
