What is AI tracking in the Toothfairy app?

AI tracking is a technology‑driven feature that analyses your weekly photos to help dentists monitor your treatment remotely.It works alongside your dentist — not instead of them — to make care:

• more accurate
• more accessible
• more convenient
• more on‑demand
• more consistent

‍

This modern approach ensures your teeth move safely and predictably.

‍

How AI tracking works

1. You upload weekly photos

The app prompts you to take clear images of your teeth.

2. AI analyses your images

The system checks:

• aligner fit
• tooth movement
• gum changes
• pressure points
• early signs of tracking issues

3. AI compares your progress to your digital plan

It highlights whether teeth are moving as expected.

4. Dentists review AI insights

Your dentist uses the AI analysis to make informed decisions.

5. You receive personalised guidance

You’ll get clear instructions on:

• whether to continue
• whether to adjust wear time
• whether to switch aligners
• whether extra photos are needed

‍

This makes treatment safer and more predictable.

What AI tracking checks

‍

Why AI tracking improves treatment

More accurate movement monitoring

AI detects tiny changes that may be missed in photos alone.

More frequent reviews

Weekly check‑ins mean issues are caught early.

More accessible care

No clinic visits needed — ideal for busy schedules.

More personalised guidance

Dentists tailor advice to your exact progress.

More predictable results

AI helps ensure each aligner stage is completed correctly.

How AI supports your dentist

AI enhances — not replaces — your dentist’s expertise.

‍

Dentists use AI insights to:

• verify aligner fit
• track movement patterns
• spot early issues
• adjust treatment
• prevent delays
• improve long‑term outcomes

This combination of human expertise + digital dentistry is what makes Toothfairy uniquely effective.

‍

When AI may request extra photos

You may be asked for additional images if:

• your aligners feel unusually tight
• a tooth isn’t tracking
• your gums look inflamed
• you’ve missed wear time
• you’re nearing the end of a stage

Extra reviews help keep your treatment safe and predictable.
