Alyner Monitor

Every scan checked. Every decision yours.

Patients scan at home with their phone at every tray change. AI compares all six views against the approved plan, tooth by tooth, and a clinician confirms every go or hold. Patients come in when something needs a chair — not by default.

How a home scan is reviewed

Six views, captured at homeFront, left, right, upper, lower and bite, framed and checked for blur by the app.
Compared with the approved stageAI measures per-tooth deviation, tracking, seating and drift, and suggests go or hold.
A clinician decidesA registered clinician confirms or overrides the suggestion. Who decided, and when, is recorded.
The patient is toldA plain answer in the app: stay on this tray, or move to the next.

The patient only ever hears the clinician's decision, never the AI's suggestion.

How a scan becomes a decision

The app captures six views

AI frames and fires each shot for the patient — front, left, right, upper, lower, bite. Blurry or missing views are caught before upload, and uploads resume by themselves on a bad connection.

AI measures, tooth by tooth

Each scan is compared against the orthodontist-approved plan for that stage: per-tooth deviation in millimetres, tracking percentage, seating, drift and refinement risk. The evidence is shown, not just a verdict.

A clinician decides

AI suggests go or hold; a registered clinician confirms it — always. The patient gets a plain answer in the app: stay on this tray, or move to the next. Off-track cases surface as alerts the same day.

What every scan is checked for

Six measurements, each shown against the approved plan for that stage, so the clinician sees why the AI suggested what it did.

Illustration of a 3D dental scan with the six checks marked — WHAT THE AI MEASURES

Tracking percentageHow closely the whole arch matches the planned stage, as one number
Per-tooth deviationMillimetres off plan for each of 28 teeth, in FDI notation
Aligner seatingSpace between tray and tooth that means the aligner isn't fully seated
Incisal edge gapsGaps at the incisal edges that show a tooth lagging behind the plan
Drift over timeWhether a small deviation is growing from one scan to the next
Refinement riskAn early signal that the case may need a mid-course correction

Evidence first. A clinician signs off.

AI produces the measurements and a suggested verdict. It never records a clinical decision — a registered clinician confirms every go or hold before the patient hears it.

Step 1

Scan uploaded

Six views, checked for blur and coverage before they leave the phone.

Step 2

AI evidence

Deviation per tooth, tracking, seating — and a verdict labelled as a suggestion.

Clinician

Clinician decides

Go or hold, confirmed by a registered clinician. Who decided, and when, is recorded.

Step 4

Patient told

A plain answer in the app the same day: move to the next tray, or stay on this one.

Suggested verdicts are never shown to patients. Read how we handle clinical data on the security and data protection pages.

What your practice gets back

Fewer routine check-ups

Well-tracking patients advance from home. Your chairs go to new patients and to the cases that genuinely need attention.

Problems caught weeks earlier

Tracking loss shows up at the scan where it starts, not at the next appointment. Earlier catches mean fewer refinements and shorter treatments.

An audit trail on every case

Every scan, verdict, deviation and clinician decision is recorded with who decided and when — evidence-grade records without extra admin.

Questions clinics ask

How often do patients scan?

At every tray change by default — usually every 7 to 14 days, set per case by the treating clinician. Reminders go out from the app, and a missed scan shows up in your monitoring queue rather than going unnoticed.

What if a scan is blurry or a view is missing?

The app catches it before upload. AI frames each shot and asks for a retake on the spot, and uploads resume automatically on a poor connection — so a half-finished scan never reaches your queue.

Does the AI decide whether a patient advances?

No. It measures, shows the evidence and suggests a verdict. A registered clinician confirms every go or hold, and that decision — not the suggestion — is what the patient sees and what goes on the record.

What happens on a hold?

The patient is told to stay on the current tray, with the reason in plain language and a date to re-scan. Repeated holds escalate to an in-person appointment. The whole sequence sits on the case record.

Which phones does it work on?

Any recent iPhone or Android phone with a standard camera. No extra hardware is required — the guided capture does the framing. An optional Alyner ScanBox helps patients hold the phone steady. See the patient app for what scanning at home looks like.
