Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A system for preparing a prescription for the use of one or more orthodontal correction devices, such as aligners, which allows for remote interaction and guidance by dental professionals with their patients. The aligner may include a sensor to detect when it is being worn for tracking compliance and determining when the next correction device within the prescription should replace the current correction device. A software application associated with the patient allows them to view and track their progress and to send data to their dental professional, and similarly the dental professional is alerted by the present invention when compliance issues or other issues may arise requiring intervention.
