The example systems, methods, and/or computer-readable media described herein help with design treatment plans for orthodontic treatments. Treatment templates reflecting a user's treatment preferences are expressed in a domain-specific treatment language and include treatment protocols. Orthodontic treatment plans are customized based on the treatment templates and a physical condition of the patient. Treatment appliances are fabricated based on the customized orthodontic treatment plans.

Systems and methods for treatment using domain-specific treatment protocols

Orthodontic and/or dental treatment planning methods and apparatuses. In particular, described herein are methods of generating a plurality of potential treatment plan variations for the concurrent and interactive review of the treatment plan variations. Treatment settings may be determined based on initial tooth positions and may be arranged in a hierarchy of treatment settings. Each of the plurality of treatment plans may be generated based on a set of treatment settings from the hierarchy of treatment settings. Also described herein are orthodontic and/or dental treatment planning methods and apparatuses that present the plurality of treatment plans to the user to allow a user to select a treatment plan from a plurality of different treatment plans.

Prediction of multiple treatment settings

The example systems, methods, and/or computer-readable media described herein help with design treatment plans for orthodontic treatments. Treatment templates expressed according to treatment domain-specific protocols may be processed to provide treatment planning software, including automated or real-time treatment planning software, that accommodates treatment preferences of a practitioner and/or patient data relevant to a treatment plan. These methods and systems may be also be useful for planning, designing and producing as series of dental appliances (e.g., aligners).

In various implementations, computer-implemented method, such as one executed on a computer system or on instructions stored on computer-readable media may include: receiving from a user device associated with a user, a request to access one or more treatment plans for patient; identifying a treatment template for user, the treatment template representing treatment preferences of the user, the treatment template being expressed according to treatment domain-specific protocols; processing the treatment template with the treatment domain-specific protocols to convert one or more parts of the treatment template into one or more runtime elements that interactively display customized user interface elements related to the treatment plan, the customized user interface elements configured to provide one or more customized user interactions with the treatment plan in accordance with the treatment preferences of the user; and providing instructions to display the one or more runtime elements on the user device.
