Orthodontic Treatment Planning Assistant
Analyze diagnostic records and generate comprehensive orthodontic treatment plans
What You Can Do
You can input diagnostic records including cephalometric measurements, intraoral photography findings, CBCT results, and clinical examination data. Claude organizes this information into cohesive treatment plans that specify skeletal/dental relationships, treatment sequencing, appliance selection, and force management protocols. This enables faster case documentation, standardized treatment communication, and better staff training on complex cases.
Features
systematically interpret skeletal relationships and dental positioning from measurement data
generate phase-specific protocols aligned with biomechanical principles and clinical evidence
recommend fixed appliance systems, bracket prescriptions, and wire sequences based on case characteristics
detail activation schedules, elastomeric/mechanical protocols, and expected biological response timelines
organize treatment into distinct phases for complex skeletal and dental discrepancies
produce structured case summaries for staff training and patient communication
consolidate findings from multiple imaging modalities into actionable clinical conclusions
create clear treatment intent documentation for clinical team alignment
Example Output
Example 1: Class II Division 1 Case Summary
Diagnostic Summary: Skeletal Class II with maxillary prognathism (SNA 84°), horizontal growth pattern (MP-SN 38°), overjet 8mm, overbite 4mm, lower incisor retroclination. Mixed dentition stage.
Treatment Plan:
- Phase 1 (12-14 months): 0.022" MBT appliance, maxillary expansion via sequential wires, Class II correction with elastics in final phase
- Wire sequence: 0.016" NiTi → 0.018" SS → 0.019×0.025" SS with full-size final mechanics
- Expected outcomes: Overjet correction to 2-3mm, overbite normalized, maxillary arch width gained 4-6mm
Example 2: Severe Crowding Case Specification
Clinical Findings: Lower arch crowding 8mm, upper arch 6mm, Class I molar relationship, 14-year-old, good bone support.
Recommended Approach:
- Appliance: 0.022" passive bracket system for light continuous forces
- Extraction consideration: Lower first premolars to resolve crowding
- Initial alignment: 0.014" and 0.016" NiTi wires (6-week intervals) for gentle leveling
- Total treatment duration: 18-24 months
- Staff protocol: Monitor PA/lateral radiographs at 6-month intervals for root parallelism
