## Indications for Use

GuideMia Ortho+ software system is intended for use as a medical front-end device providing tools for management of orthodontic models, systematic inspection, detailed analysis, treatment simulation and virtual appliance design option (Custom metal bands, export of models, Indirect Bonding) 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 treatment. It can be further used at the end of the treatment to evaluate if the outcome is consistent with the planned/desired treatment objectives. None of the export models from the software are expected to be CAD/CAM milled. The use of the Ortho+ system requires the users to have the necessary domain training and knowledge in the practice of orthodontics, as well as to have received a dedicated training in the use of the software.

## Device Story

GuideMia Ortho+ is a software system for orthodontic treatment planning and analysis. Input consists of 3D models of patient dentition. The software provides tools for systematic inspection, detailed analysis, treatment simulation, and virtual appliance design, including custom metal bands and indirect bonding. Used in clinical settings by trained orthodontic professionals. Output includes analyzed 3D models and treatment plans, which assist the clinician in evaluating treatment progress and outcomes. The device facilitates clinical decision-making by allowing visualization and simulation of orthodontic objectives. It does not support CAD/CAM milling of exported models.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

Software-based orthodontic analysis system. Functions as a medical front-end device for 3D model management and simulation. Operates on patient dentition data. No physical materials or hardware components described.

## Regulatory Identification

An orthodontic plastic bracket is a plastic device intended to be bonded to a tooth to apply pressure to a tooth from a flexible orthodontic wire to alter its position.
