BRIUS Planner is intended for use as a medical front-end device providing tools for management of orthodontic models, systematic inspection, treatment simulation and virtual appliance design options (Patient-Specific Nitinol Wires, Sequential Aligners, Export of Models, Indirect Bonding Transfer Media) based on 3D models of the patient's dentition before the start of an orthodontic treatment. It can also be applied during the treatment to inspect and analyze the progress of the treatment. It can be used at the end of the treatment to evaluate if the outcome is consistent with the planned/desired treatment objectives.
The use of the BRIUS Planner requires the user to have the necessary training and domain knowledge in the practice of orthodontics, as well as to have received a dedicated training in the use of the software.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
