approached dolphinimaging.com for integration
Like Pintrest for ortho.
Integration with Dolphin
Dolphin can de-identify
Parallel effort by AAO: the board approved to create an orthodontic case database, which might compete with this.
Dolphin could upload some data to orthoscience, but codes have to be well defined.
Problem with orthoII: It's too customizable, so data can't participate in big data, because everyone creates their own parameters instead of using codes.
SNOMED/SNODENT codes are currently not being used, Ken Gladstone and Mark Hans were not aware of them.
How about the DI score Discrepancy Index? Is this in SNODENT? Should this be considered for orthoscience integration.
Some members include Stuart Frost, Francesco Garino... (see http://www.orthoscience.com/team)

they don't talk about straightening teeth, but straightening smiles.
there are all kinds of disaster stories
maybe Mark Hans can compete with them
- Is smiledirect polymers really special as they say? After testing on chemical properties of thermoplastic materials, there is nothing special about it.
- Carla Evans there are 3 published articles which study polymers of aligners, for things like discoloration and other properties, and other properties.

Collected and compared times for humans to segment teeth and mesh repair time from study model scans with Orchestrate, MotionView (w and wo facial axis and teeth)
- Repair the mesh
- Segment the teeth
Which one is better? Fast, but dirtier? How about quality?
Times are always less then 4m per scan.
Bottom line is: a a private orthodontist can compete with smiledirectclub and still make a profit.

Torque on the base: ISO standard for torque on tooth, definitions, abbreviations and measurements.
- Big change is corrosion testing: if you print metal brackets you have to worry about corrosion.
Can you print brackets with 3D printers? Yes. Printing Ch-Co printer and Stainless Steel. It's called centering for metal.
- Is it economical? Probably not economical: if you do the math $0.60/bracket, but the printer is $300k. So if you have the printer, it'OK
Printing with polymers should be possible with strong polymers.

64 bit resolves the 2GB RAM limit, allowing, for example, the user to superimpose larger FOV of volumes
currently in beta
showed how it's easy to superimpose intraoral scan with CBCT.
showed how to segment a mandible out
demoed complex surgical orthodontic case involving mandible and maxilla rotation, using temporary splints.
showed 3D real time morphing from 2D tracing.
Ken Gladstone showed a 3D printed half-size skull multicolor (airways in red, sinus in white, bone transparent)

Mark Hans shows Ortho2 Bolton standards implementation (old version, now discontinued)
Ken Gladstone shows how to do Bolton standards with Dolphin:
- load bolton standard tracing into Dolphin
- superimpose the tracing to a patient's ceph
Dan shows Bolton standard on Ortho Insight Motion View software.
- Has a Bolton button, which loads the correct bolton standard based on patient sex, age and race. Clicking the button pops up the bolton tracing.
- relationship of overlay is saved automatically to patient, and it can be changed. Mark Hans pointed out that it shouldn't be changeable once the bolton tracing is imported to the patient.
