Align Technology has launched a new integration feature, Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT), for its ClinCheck orthodontic digital treatment planning software.
CBCT is a user-friendly tool that combines bone, roots and crowns into a single three-dimensional model.
Through this model, doctors will be able to see the roots of a patient as part of the digital treatment planning process.
The CBCT integration will help doctors expand diagnosis and increase the visibility and control of a patient’s underlying anatomical structures during treatment planning, which will allow more cases to be treated using Invisalign clear aligners.
Align Technology Asia Pacific chief product and marketing officer, executive vice-president and managing director Raj Pudipeddi said: “In an easy-to-use interface, CBCT scan data is digitally fused with an intraoral scan, resulting into a manoeuvrable 3D ClinCheck treatment plan model, thus making it convenient for doctors to tailor their treatment plans based on their patients’ needs.
“We are pleased to deliver a high-quality, automated feature that is easy for doctors to use and incorporate into their digital workflow.
