What is Vision by SoftSmile?
Vision by SoftSmile is AI-powered orthodontic treatment planning software created for orthodontic labs, practices, aligner manufacturers, and digital treatment teams. The platform is designed to streamline the full aligner production workflow, from scan processing and setup to treatment review, collaboration, postprocessing, and 3D printing preparation. Vision uses automated preprocessing to segment teeth, remove scan artifacts, align models, and create clean case data before planning begins. Its AI-driven automatic setup helps position teeth into an ideal arch, reducing manual adjustments while still giving clinicians and technicians control over individual movements and treatment decisions. The software includes tools for treatment planning, staging, collision detection, treatment optimization, elastics, attachments, additional teeth support, articulator workflows, and customized clinical adjustments. During the review stage, Vision helps doctors, designers, and lab teams evaluate plans, exchange feedback, approve cases, and finalize treatment details more efficiently. The platform’s Portal collaboration tools allow teams to review and edit treatment plans together, helping reduce delays and improve communication between labs and clinicians. Vision also supports postprocessing for production by preparing 3D models with hollow, ribbed, or solid configurations, automated cutting lines, fillers, blockouts, export presets, and quality checks. These capabilities help labs move cases toward printing with fewer manual steps and more consistent production output. SoftSmile provides onboarding, demo options, and a trial process to help teams transition from older treatment planning systems without a steep learning curve. Built by orthodontists and designed around real aligner workflows, Vision helps organizations improve treatment planning speed, increase precision, expand production capacity, and deliver clearer digital case experiences for doctors and patients.
