How YVO works
Orthodontic expertise,built into your clear-aligner workflow.
YVO works alongside your practice from initial diagnosis and treatment planning through aligner setup review, refinements and ongoing case support. You remain the treating dentist and maintain the direct relationship with your patient.
From submission to support, five stages.
The same shape every time, whichever aligner system the case is treated with.
01
Submit your case
Your practice submits the patient information and diagnostic records needed for orthodontic review.
02
Orthodontic review
YVO reviews the submitted diagnostic information and develops the orthodontic diagnosis, treatment goals and treatment plan. The review is based on the records you submit — YVO does not examine the patient.
03
Aligner setup review
The aligner manufacturer creates the digital setup based on the prescribed treatment plan and clinical protocols. YVO then reviews the setup against the orthodontic diagnosis and treatment objectives, requesting modifications as needed before the case proceeds to manufacturing.
04
Treat your patient
The patient stays under your direct care. You deliver treatment and exercise independent professional judgment about that patient, with the orthodontic treatment plan and YVO's expertise behind you.
05
Ongoing case support
When a case needs another look, YVO supports progress evaluation, refinement planning and continued orthodontic review — at the points in treatment where you ask for it.
Your patient. Your practice.Orthodontic expertise when you need it.
The patient is a patient of your practice and stays that way. You hold the relationship, you see them, and the treatment decisions are yours to make with the independent professional judgment they require.
YVO provides the orthodontic diagnosis, treatment planning, setup review and case support, working from the records your practice submits. It is there to add orthodontic expertise to the care you deliver — not to take any part of it over.
What the review is based on.
The orthodontic diagnosis and treatment plan come from the records your practice sends, read by an orthodontist. Nothing here needs a referral or a second appointment somewhere else.
- Clinical photographs, intraoral and extraoral
- An intraoral scan
- A panoramic radiograph or full-mouth series
- Your clinical information and treatment goals for the patient
- Anything else the case calls for, requested as part of the submission
