Align Technology recently introduced the Invisalign Outcome Simulator Pro patient communication tool, which can quickly display in-face visualization of a patient’s potential future smile after Invisalign treatment to help improve case acceptance.
The tool is available on the company’s iTero Element Plus series scanners and imaging systems, according to a press release. It uses in-face visualization and/or 3D dentition view, with everything completed chairside in a few minutes. This expands Align’s existing Invisalign Outcome Simulator technology and adds the company’s ClinCheck “In-Face” Visualization tool that combines a photo of a patient’s face with their 3D treatment simulation, creating a personalized view of how their new smile could look after recommended clear aligner treatment.
Invisalign Outcome Simulator Pro supports a more streamlined workflow and consultation. Patient photos are captured on a mobile device using the Invisalign Practice App and the scan is taken on the iTero Element Plus series scanner. With those digital patient images, the Invisalign Outcome Simulator Pro starts automatically in the background, enabling doctors to continue the consultation using other iTero tools while the Invisalign treatment simulation is generated.
The tool is in limited market release and will be available on all iTero Element Plus Series scanners and imaging systems starting in the second half of 2022.
