Abstract
Embodiments are directed to techniques, methods and systems for analyzing orthodontic treatments during treatment and correcting the orthodontic treatments when analysis shows that a patient's actual dentition for a stage of treatment deviates from a planned dentition for the stage of treatment. Analysis may be performed by comparing image data of an actual condition of the patient's dental arch at a stage of treatment to a planned condition of the patients dental arch for the stage of treatment, and identifying clinical signs that the actual condition of the patient's dental arch has a deviation from the planned condition of the patient's dental arch for the stage of orthodontic treatment.
