These are the doctors teeth just after the braces were placed and he was scanned for 3-D imaging…Now he will begin planning on the new positions of his teeth by utilizing the 3-D software created by Suresmile to virtually move his teeth….note all the tools at his disposal to optimize his final tooth positions…
With a simple click he can remove his braces from the virtual image…
With another click of his mouse he can measure the widths of all of the teeth and determine the ratio of tooth widths that will best fit with the lower teeth
With the zoom feature he can look close to the areas in need of decision making
once close to a final decision on the best fit he can compare his pretreatment braces positions (left) with his post treatment targeted positions (right)
close up view of the displacements required to move his teeth in the very “crooked” area of his mouth
Dr. Snyder can virtually look at the wire from any direction…once he is happy with the set up and the wire he orders the robot to construct the wire to these precise dimensions…the wire is placed and away we go

Here is the robotically bent wire inserted on 3/9/06…note the springs present to begin ideal alignment of the upper anteriors for eventual build ups..
