    Abstract: A method for managing a dental work flow using digital automation. After a remote consultation, the patient is sent a portable scanning wand or device by a dental professional. The patient performs a self intra-oral scan as directed and then transmits the video over a network such as the internet. Before the dental professional can review the transmitted data, a data management module analyzes the transmitted video using a suite of artificial intelligence (AI) tools and automatically prepares an original report or summary which details any likely issues present within the patient's teeth. An additional supplemental report may also be generated by the suite of AI tools which lists any required treatments, any possible elective treatments, and any further treatment options that may be provided responsively to the patient. The dental professional can then form a diagnosis for the patient and then send the diagnosis directly to the patient.

    Abstract: A method for directly printing orthodontic and dental appliances on the teeth of a patient. The tooth is scanned with a scanner which is communicated with a computer controller configured to recognize the anatomy of the tooth. The surface of a tooth of the patient is then prepared in order to receive the type of appliance designated for the patient. Using image data from the print head, the computer controller prepares a three-dimensional blueprint or design of an appropriate orthodontic or dental appliance. The computer controller controls the type and amount of material that is distributed through the print head only when the print head passes over the recognized anatomy so as to directly print the corresponding appliance onto the tooth layer by layer as the print head makes successive passes over the surface of the tooth.

    Abstract: A method of monitoring the degree of fit of an aligner among a series of aligners includes the steps of selecting an aligner in the series of aligners whose fit to a patient's teeth are to be tested to determine its fit with the selected aligner; disposing a nontoxic colored plastic material into the selected aligner; setting the patient's teeth into the selected aligner containing the material; and determining the amount of material disposed onto the interior aligner's surfaces by visual inspection by assessment of the material disposed therein, a good fit being indicated by a minimum of material extruded onto almost all of the interior aligner surfaces and by a light color, and a poor fit being indicated by an excess of material extruded onto one or more locations of the aligner interior surfaces and a dark color.

    Abstract: A head mounted magnifying camera is communicated with a computer system with a head-mounted display having a center of a field of view. A magnified view of a live dental area of interest is provided, image capture of the live dental area of interest is performed and downloaded into the computer system, or an image of a stored dental area of interest is uploaded from the computer system and matched to the live dental area of interest. The image of the live dental area of interest is automatically tracked in the computer system, and the image of the live dental area of interest is kept in the center of the field of view of the head-mounted display.

    Abstract: An expandable and collapsible pouch for accommodating an orthodontic appliance while not is use. The pouch may be selectively and repeatedly coupled to a variety of objects. After selectively coupling the pouch to a desired object, the user opens the pouch by expanding at least one collapsible wall or side. The user then removes their orthodontic appliance, inserts it into the open pouch, and then closes the pouch by letting the pouch contract. When the orthodontic appliance is needed again, the user removes the appliance from the pouch and lets the pouch contract into its original position flush against the surface of the object. The pouch is coupled to the object via a magnet disposed within the pouch that is configured to interact with the surface of the object. The pouch also includes a second magnet which assists the pouch maintain a closed position while an appliance is inserted therein.

    Abstract: An interproximal reduction (IPR) kit and method for using the same. The patient takes their own dental impression and submits it to a dental service provider for a treatment plan. A set of aligners based on the treatment plan are then delivered to the patient as part of a kit. The kit also includes a set of written instructions and/or a treatment diagram and a plurality of strips used to reduce the widths of specific spots of the patient's teeth according to the treatment plan. The patient follows the reapproximation instructions or is instructed to go to a website for supervision for the performance of the reapproximation process. After sufficient instruction, the patient applies the plurality of strips to the correct spots between their teeth. Once reapproximation is complete, the patient is ready to begin wearing the aligners as dictated by the treatment plan.
