Product: Align Technology’s Invisalign Outcome Simulator Pro

The Invisalign Outcome Simulator Pro from Align Technology marks the next leap in advanced patient communication tools. The tool, designed for use with iTero Element Plus Series scanners and imaging systems, allows doctors to showcase a patient’s potential new smile after Invisalign treatment. 

The innovative tool utilises in-face visualisation and 3D dentition view, offering patients a personalised preview of their post-treatment smile, all accomplished chairside within minutes.

Transforming Consultations

Dr. Johnathan Fitzpatrick, an aesthetic and restorative dentist based in Glasgow, Scotland, attests to the transformative impact of Invisalign Outcome Simulator Pro on the consultation process. The tool’s in-face visualisation has proven to be a game-changer in enhancing case acceptance. Dr. Fitzpatrick shares a compelling anecdote of a patient who, captivated by the in-face visualisation of their potential future smile, opted for Invisalign treatment after a routine hygiene appointment.

Invisalign Outcome Simulator Pro introduces a streamlined workflow, maximising patient chair time and simplifying overall consultations. The process begins with capturing patient photos on a mobile device via the Invisalign Practice App, followed by a scan using the iTero Element Plus series scanner. While the tool generates the Invisalign treatment simulation in the background, doctors can seamlessly continue consultations using other iTero tools.

Yuval Shaked, Executive Vice President of iTero scanners and services business, expresses excitement about the new tool. In his words, “It is an exciting new development that furthers Align’s vision of an integrated platform of digital products and services, providing a seamless solution for doctors to efficiently and effectively treat their patients with Invisalign clear aligners.”
