Who are the Smyline coaches?
Our coaches are orthodontists specializing in aligners, with proven experience.
They are familiar with the day-to-day running of a dental practice, with its constraints and pace. So they can provide you with answers that can be applied to your center, and guide you in the implementation of reliable and effective procedures, processes and solutions.
Clinic
Which photos should I upload to the Smyline platform?
The only mandatory photo is the front intra-oral view. Nevertheless, we strongly advise you to share the following views with us:
○ Occlusal – Front mandible
○ Occlusal – Maxilla front view
○ Intra-oral right side
○ Intra-oral left side
○ Patient photos: front view with mouth closed – front view with smile – profile view with mouth closed
How to install cleats correctly?
We recommend that you follow the instructions on your composite devices (quantity, mix). We then recommend that you dry your teeth thoroughly to ensure a good bond, and firmly press the Smyline template against the tooth.
How can I see the stripping steps on the treatment plan?
Stripping steps are generally performed in steps 3, 6 and 9. Details of stripping can be found at the very end of the treatment plan PDF. If you have any questions about the treatment plan, you can make an appointment with our Ortho Center. (link to online appointment)
How do I view the cleats in the viewer?
When you’re in the 3D viewer, you can activate the cleat view by clicking on the icon at top right representing a small tooth with an attachment.
Where can I find the patient's informed consent?

Support
What communications support do you offer for my practice?
We provide you with a poster, flyers, a display unit and its demo aligner, as well as a video for your waiting room (download the video). You will receive this welcome kit with your first aligner treatment. However, you can contact us to receive it earlier.
What does a coaching session involve?
Coaching sessions are individual and led by one of our clinical referents. The session lasts 30 minutes and takes place by telephone or video. It gives you the opportunity to discuss all the issues surrounding the aligner (patient, clinic, estimates, organization, structure, etc.) and to ask our Smyline coach any questions you may have.
How do I book a coaching session?
Book an appointment online from our website and reserve your 30-minute coaching session. Free session reserved for Smyline customers.
How do you run your training courses?
We offer an e-learning path and face-to-face training days. The e-learning program is made up of 4 modules accessible from a private area 24 hours a day. Face-to-face training takes place over the course of a day, and covers both clinical theory and hands-on practice, with exercises such as fitting compression wires, cleat fitting, manual and motorized stripping, etc.
How do I register for a course?

How do I create a quote for my patient?
We share a nomenclature and pricing codes with you (download file here). You must create your patient quote based on the Smyline package you will be billed for. If you need help with this, you can book a coaching session with our clinical referent (link to booking an appointment).
