Plan Editor in ClinCheck® Pro software
Make significant changes to your treatment plans quickly and easily without involving an Align technician.
Gain more control of treatment planning for better clinical outcomes with Plan Editor in ClinCheck® software.
Plan Editor introduces multiple new case modification tools that were previously only available during the case submission process in the Invisalign® Doctor Site or in comments to the CAD designer.

Examples of new treatment plan changes include:
Simulating an extraction
Scheduling IPR
Modifying the method of AP correction
Removing root movements
Managing spacing cases
Plan Editor adds even more efficiency to your treatment planning.

How Plan Editor works.
Plan Editor is only enabled with a preferences template selected, like Invisalign® Personalized Plan, and is to be used for select cases where you want to modify the treatment plan goal or approach, or handle exceptions to your usual treatment preferences.
Step 1
Choose any plan from your history, go to ‘Modify Plan’ and select ‘Plan Editor’ from the dropdown.
Step 2
Select one or more tools to view existing preferences and toggle them off to make your modifications.
Step 3
Make your modifications and click the ‘Live Update’ button to review the changes in minutes.
Step 4
When finished with Plan Editor changes, either fine tune your plan using 3D Controls or approve your updated plan.

Frequently Asked Questions
When is Plan Editor available in ClinCheck treatment plans?
Plan Editor will be available in the ClinCheck Pro software if a doctor uses the Flex Rx form. Once a doctor receives their initial setup, they can proceed using Plan Editor tools. Plan Editor is only available to be used before 3D Controls. Plan Editor will not be available if 3D Controls are used first, and this will be clear in the interface.
Why can’t a doctor see Plan Editor in the ClinCheck Pro software?
An order must be submitted using the Flex Rx form to use Plan Editor tools in ClinCheck Pro software.
How long does ClinCheck Live Update take to modify staging and features?
Just like ClinCheck Live Update for 3D Controls, if the user is connected to a stable internet connection and is using hardware that meets the minimum system requirements, the update will usually take approximately 2 minutes to complete. Some users might see updates appear in less time.
Why is the complete list of Plan Editor tools not available?
Once Plan Editor is selected, the software automatically displays tools depending on the initial conditions of the case. (i.e. a deep bite case will not display an Anterior open bite tool). Tools can be easily enabled by editing the ‘Initial Conditions’ section of Plan Editor.
Can more than one tool be used before selecting the Live Update button?
Yes, a doctor can modify multiple tools in Plan Editor in one session.
What if a doctor transfers a patient case to another doctor who is not using a preferences template, such as Invisalign Personalized Plan?
If a case is transferred to another doctor, the automated preferences of the original doctor will be saved after the transfer to the new doctor. However, the new doctor will not see Plan Editor in the software.
Can the CAD designer see updated staging reflected in the treatment plan after using ClinCheck Live Update?
Yes, CAD designers can see the exact same number of stages that the doctor sees after using ClinCheck Live Update. The only limitation is that CAD designers can see only the plan that was approved or submitted and can’t see the rest of plans that a doctor may have calculated.
Why is a doctor getting a notification that Plan Editor and Live Update are unable to update or failed to update?
In some rare instances, when a doctor uses ClinCheck Live Update, the plan modification cannot be successfully completed. In the event a recalculation fails, the doctor will see a pop-up notification that Plan Editor has failed. If this happens, doctors should retry Live Update, and if it continues to fail, then continue using comments to the Align technician.
Can a doctor send comments to the CAD designer while using Plan Editor?
No, the ‘Submit’ button is disabled when using Plan Editor. The doctor must use the Live Update button after Plan Editor to proceed with 3D Controls, comments, or approving the plan.
Is training available on how to use Plan Editor and all of the individual tools?
Yes, training content is available in the Align Education site, under Education > Resources > ClinCheck Pro or by clicking here.
