Using Auto-Realignment

The Auto-Realignment tool carries out realignment of the scans, optimizing the scan data based on Artificial Intelligence (AI). To simplify, the scan data is cleaned by discarding frames that are calculated to be misaligned with respect to the totality of the available data.

  • 1. In the right-hand Scan Tools menu, click on the Auto-Realignment icon.

You will be prompted to confirm the optimization.

  • 2. Click OK to start Auto-Realignment of the scans.

You are advised to use the Auto-Realignment tool before proceeding to the Bite Alignment step, as optimization may modify the occlusal position of the realigned arches.
