SureSmile 6.0 will be the first orthodontic system to provide the unprecedented ability to plan treatment by positioning teeth and roots within supporting bone. In conjunction with a CBCT scan, SureSmile 6.0 enables doctors to see a rendering of the bone support for each tooth and know what is optimal for that tooth position. This new capability allows doctors to better design the movement of teeth and roots to give patients the best results.
