Moving teeth

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.
