ClearPilotÔ 7.0 can give you even greater control over your ClearCorrect® aligner treatment plans.

In the world of orthodontics, clear aligners have rapidly become the preferred choice for those seeking to straighten their teeth discreetly and comfortably. Among the various clear aligner solutions available in the market, ClearCorrect^®, a Straumann Group brand, stands out as a leader in providing effective and predictable treatment.

ClearPilotÔ is the digital treatment planning tool that gives dental clinicians enhanced visibility, and responsive control as they review and approve their ClearCorrect^® clear aligner cases. It provides users with easy-to-access comments and technician notes, prescription details all in one place for side-by-side comparison, treatment overview, occlusal heatmapping, superimposition and millimetre grids.

The web-based platform was developed based on feedback from clinicians and enables dental professionals to evaluate and edit their treatment set-ups.

Cutting-edge

One of the standout features of ClearPilot™ is its cutting-edge technology which enables clinicians to create highly accurate and precise treatment plans tailored to each patient’s treatment goals. With ClearPilot, dental clinicians can visualise the final outcome before treatment even begins, providing patients with realistic expectations and greater confidence in the process.

ClearPilotÔ produces robust 3D visualisations. You can easily rotate and zoom the model from all perspectives. It really can help with patient engagement too, as it can explain which teeth are being moved in each aligner step.

This level of visualisation enables the clinician to monitor the force of the aligners and complex movements can be slowed to give a more predictable outcome. It enables the dentist to add Clinical Control^TM features like anterior or posterior bite ramps, add cut-outs for buttons and slits for elastics if needs be and the movement visualised with the new bite jump feature

User friendly

Another key advantage of ClearPilotÔ lies in its intuitive and user-friendly interface. The platform allows dental clinicians to seamlessly navigate through the treatment planning process, empowering them to make adjustments and modifications with ease. With just a few clicks, dental clinicians can fine-tune treatment plans, ensuring optimal results and maximum patient satisfaction. With ClearPilotÔ communication between you and the technician, and you and the patient is enhanced.

The platform’s ClearPilotÔ analysis tools include point-to-point measurement Bolton tables, step by step Tooth Movement charts, and Collision monitoring. Bolton analysis determines the ratio of the mesiodistal widths of the maxillary teeth to the mandibular teeth. It shows whether there is any tooth size discrepancy between the upper and lower teeth.

The movement chart tool details how every tooth has moved, giving the dental clinician detailed and accurate information. Users can customise the treatment plan by modifying the final desired tooth position. They can control intrusion/extrusion, translation, crown tipping, crown torque, and rotations directly on the 3D model and also customise the engagers being used, choosing between 2mm, 3mm and 4mm engagers.
