How it works
Six steps, one approval. The technical work happens on our side; every decision that matters happens on yours.
The six steps
- Step 01
Create your case
Submit the case information and your treatment instructions. A case number is issued straight away.
- Step 02
Upload scans
Upload the upper and lower intraoral scans and the bite. STL, PLY and OBJ are accepted, along with photos and radiographs.
- Step 03
Planning
Our digital planning team segments the arches, builds the setup and stages the movements to your objectives.
- Step 04
Review
Open the proposed setup in your browser. Rotate it, compare initial and final, step through the stages, read the tables.
- Step 05
Request changes
Comment on the case, a tooth, a stage, an attachment or an IPR contact. Your comments become a new version.
- Step 06
Approve
Approve the version you are satisfied with. Only then are production files prepared.
Revisions are versions
A change request produces a new numbered version. Previous versions are never overwritten, so the history of every decision stays with the case.

Questions doctors ask
- Can I request changes?
- Yes. Comment on the plan in general, on a specific tooth, a stage, an attachment or an IPR contact, and request changes. Each revision is a new numbered version.
- Does the doctor approve the final plan?
- Always. The treating clinician retains final clinical control. Only a version the doctor approves moves toward production.
- How long does planning take?
- It depends on the case type and the review rounds. We confirm an expected turnaround when we accept the case, and the portal shows the current stage at any time.
- Can I review the plan online?
- Yes. Approved reviewers open the plan in the browser, rotate the model, switch between initial, stages and final, and comment directly on the case.
