iOrtho is intended for use as a medical front-end device providing tools for management of orthodontic cases, systematic inspection, detailed analysis, treatment simulation and virtual applians (Export of Models, Indirect Bonding Transfer Media, Sequential aligners) based on 3D models of the patient's dentition before the start of an orthodontic treatment. It can also be applied during the treatment to inspect and analyze the progress of the treatment. It can be used at the end of the treatment to evaluate if the outcome is consistent with the planned/desired treatment objectives. The use of iOrtho requires the user to have the necessary training and domain knowledge in the practice of orthodonties, as well as to have received a dedicated training in the use of the software.

iOrtho (hereafter referred to as "Proposed Device") includes modifications to the currently marketed software included in K203688, cleared October 8, 2021 (hereafter referred to as "Reference Device"). The Proposed Device is an orthodontic appliance design and treatment simulation software is for use by dental professionals to aid in diagnosis and design solutions for patients. Digital scans (3D) of a patient's dentition can be loaded into the software and the dental professional can then create treatment plans for each individual patient and their needs. The system can be used to fabricate 3D dental models using standard stereolithographic (STL) files for use in 3D printers. These models can then be used as a template for thermoforming aligners or retainers by Angel Align technicians.
