Grin Unveils 3D Treatment Tracking Tool and More at AAO Conference

Grin launched its new treatment tracking technology,The Grin 3D Tx Tracker™, and a suite of highly efficient tools to enhance the Grin Premium experience at the American Association of Orthodontics 2024 Annual Session, May 3-6, in New Orleans.

The Grin 3D Tx Tracker is designed to provide practitioners with a more precise method of tracking treatment progress for unparalleled insights and control over patient treatment progress. This latest offering from Grin—a leading virtual care platform for digital oral healthcare solutions—is described as a 3D Progression Comparison tool offering precision tracking, and representing a significant step forward in orthodontic treatment monitoring.

The company’s technology comprehensively analyzes patient progress in real-time and compares it to the original stages of the clinician's treatment plan. While remaining completely appliance-agnostic, The Grin 3D Tx Tracker™is compatible with most major aligner brands and custom digital braces providers, according to Grin.

Its computer vision patented technology now allows users to compare the Grin 2D scans received directly from the patient over their treatment lifecycle with the treatment expected 3D stages on a tooth-by-tooth level, allowing for smart detection of proximity to treatment goals or off-track teeth.

This level of real patient data is designed to allow clinicians to refine and optimize treatment strategies, be equipped with the best tools to make the most informed decisions, and to save time. With automated treatment tracking, clinical outcomes can be improved and this leads to shorter treatment durations and better patient experiences.

In addition to the new treatment tracking tool, the company also unveiled a new suite of tools designed to enhance the Grin Premium experience. Practices utilizing this service will benefit from embedded, streamlined, and highly traceable treatment management tools at the practice and patient levels. These enhanced tools include new communication methods and tracking analytics to gain deeper insights into patient needs and to elevate the services provided.
