  1. Tooth Movement

How to control the movements of teeth, pivot positions, and making incremental movements.

The treatment planning software works by you placing the teeth into the final position you want them to be in, and the software generates all the stages for that movement. Each stage is represented by a dot along the timeline. When exporting, each stage will have a model generated for printing.

To move a tooth, select the desired tooth and then use the gizmo to move in the desired direction, or change values by typing in numbers or clicking on + and - in the Tooth panel on the right. Staging will automatically appear at the bottom of the screen based on the amount of movement you are programming.

To reset the movements of a single tooth, select the tooth and click Reset Movements on the Tooth panel.

You can select multiple teeth by holding down the Shift key and left clicking them, then use the gizmo to move the teeth to the desired direction, or click on the buttons in the Multi-Select ******panel **on the right to move the selected teeth. You can customize the step for each dimension movement.

You can view teeth movement data at a stage on Table View by clicing Table View on the Tools panel. Click Upper/Lower on top of the table view to switch between the upper and lower arches. You can also move teeth by changing values in the table view.


IPR

Interproximal reduction (IPR) gets automatically added whenever two teeth move into contact with each other. An equal amount of material gets removed from both teeth. A red line represents the area of collision, and a number in millimeters above the area of contact displays the amount of IPR.

You can add or remove IPR between any two teeth in 0.1mm increments by clicking the Up or Down indicators above the interproximal space. It does this by reducing the arch circumference without changing inner-canine width.

To hide the IPR amount, uncheck the IPR in the Layer panel.

To hide the collisions, uncheck the Collisions in the Layer panel.

When you export your models, an IPR report gets generated along with your models and saved with them. This report gives the total amount of IPR to perform at each location.

Note: Make sure to use the tooth marking tool to indicate which teeth are missing so the software can generate an accurate report.
