Clear Aligners FAQ
How does Blue Sky Plan automate clear aligner case setups?
The Orthodontics Module utilizes a background automation pipeline that automatically handles spatial model data alignment, tooth annotation, precise tooth boundary segmentation, and model trimming cleanup to minimize manual layout time.
Can I plan and segment both arches at the same time for aligner cases?
Yes. Blue Sky Plan supports full two-jaw functionality. You can upload, align, and systematically annotate both the maxilla and mandible models within a single project window to track inter-jaw relationship structures.
How do I visualize jaw collisions and tight spaces during aligner movement?
Within the Orthodontics panel, you can check active toggles for "Collisions" (visualized in red) and "Closeness" (visualized via a color map overlay) to inspect inter-arch contact as teeth track through milestones.
What orthodontic tooth movements can be simulated in version 5.1?
The software feature matrix supports complete 3D tracking deviations per tooth: mesial/distal tipping, buccal/lingual tipping, rotation along the longitudinal axis, intrusion/extrusion, and multi-directional bodily translations.
How can I control or sequence the speed of tooth movements per aligner stage?
Blue Sky Plan lets you set movement tracking thresholds (monthly, bi-weekly, or weekly). Right-clicking a tooth allows you to increase or decrease movement speed by 65%, which dynamically adjusts your intermediate step table.
What is the difference between Inter-Tooth and Intra-Tooth sequencing?
Inter-Tooth Sequencing dictates how different teeth move in relation to one another across treatment stages. Intra-Tooth Sequencing manages the internal layout priority of translation versus rotation movements for an individual tooth.
How does the "Snap to Curve" function work for orthodontic alignment?
Clinicians can digitally optimize an ideal dental arch curve. Selecting "Level to Curve" snaps all teeth to the curve line while automatically computing interproximal reduction (IPR) variables within your set boundaries.
Can I add custom clear aligner tracking attachments in Blue Sky Plan?
Yes. Attachments can be populated automatically based on default placement preferences (Gingival, Mid, or Incisal layout), or placed manually by right-clicking a tooth to pick specific shapes, dimensions, and orientations.
What are my export choices after finishing a clear aligner sequence?
You can select "Export Models Only" to generate step-by-step physical models, "Design Printable Aligners" to model the actual plastic aligner files directly in-app, or "Design Aligner Trim Curve" to generate an automated trimline export for milling machines.
How can I distinguish or brand physical models generated across separate aligner stages?
The software includes an embedded Label Tool. Placing a patient name and stage number text profile on the first setup model automatically propagates custom 3D embossed or engraved identification tags across all intermediate steps.
Is there an option to export unlimited clear aligner setups without case limitations?
Yes. Blue Sky Plan provides active licensing options directly inside the software preferences panel under the BlueSkyBio Account tab. Clinicians can transition from standard pay-per-case export credits to flat-rate pricing structures or active subscriptions to achieve completely unrestricted aligner model exports across their local machines. Unlimited aligner exports start at $99 per month.
