These significantly improve planning accuracy and reduce back-and-forth communication:
Cases will NOT be accepted or processed without the following:
1. Patient Information
• Patient name
• Age & Gender
• Chief Complaint/ Patient main concern (Important)
2. Intraoral Scan / Impressions (Mandatory)
• High-quality STL files (Upper & Lower arches)
• Complete anatomical capture (no voids or distortions)
• Proper bite registration
(Please make sure the upper and lower are in correct occlusion.)
3. Clinical Photographs (Clear & Standardized) (Mandatory)
Extraoral Photos
Intraoral Photo
4. Radiographs (As Required Based on Case Complexity)
-
OPG / Panoramic X-ray
-
Lateral Cephalogram (for orthodontic planning) (Mandatory)
-
IOPA (if indicated) (Non-Mandatory)
-
CBCT (mandatory for impacted teeth or complex case)
(DICOM file format only. Output and save your CBCT in dicom (.dcm) before upload.) (Non-Mandatory)
5. Prescription Form (Mandatory)
• Clear Treatment Goals (e.g. Overjet and Overbite goals, Midline correction (if required), crowding relief, spacing closure)
• Missing Teeth,Implant,
• Extraction Plan (if applicable)
• IPR Plan (if applicable) and attachments preferences.
• Previous dental history (e.g. Extractions done before,Prior Orthodontic Treatment/Extractions/IPR if done before /Bridges/RCT/Restorations/Implants/Veneers and any known TMJ/TMD issues.)
Quick Check List:
Mandatory
- Patient Profile: Name, Age, Gender, and Chief Complaint.
- 3D Digital Records: High-quality STL files (Upper & Lower), Proper bite registration.
- Clinical Photography: All 4 Extraoral and 5 Intraoral photos as shown in the examples.
- Radiographs: Lateral Cephalogram is strictly required for orthodontic planning.
- Prescription: Clear treatment goals (Midline, Crowding, Spacing) and specific preferences for IPR or attachments.
- OPG/Panoramic X-ray: Standard for general assessment.
Conditional
- CBCT (DICOM only): Mandatory only for impacted teeth or complex skeletal cases.
- IOPA: Only if specifically indicated for localized pathology.
Tips:
- Scan Quality: "Complete anatomical capture" must include the molar retromolar pad and palatal vault to ensure appliance fit.
- Bite Registration: Scans should be exported in "multi-file STL" format rather than a single merged mesh, to allow software to manipulate the bite.
- Photography Standards: Photos should be taken using retractors and mirrors to match the high-quality examples provided in this doc.
