17 Apr SMILE-FX® Introduces AI BRACES™ by SMILE-FX®, a Technology-Driven Orthodontic System Built on 3D Imaging and Digital Treatment Planning
SMILE-FX® Launches AI Braces™ System, Bringing Predictive Treatment Planning to South Florida

SMILE-FX® Orthodontic Studio has officially launched its AI Braces™ system, a proprietary orthodontic treatment approach that integrates artificial intelligence with high-resolution 3D CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) imaging to create fully mapped treatment plans from day one. Board-certified orthodontist Dr. Tracy M. Liang introduces a data-informed approach that represents a significant departure from conventional orthodontic workflows.
Where traditional treatment adjustments are often made reactively based on periodic check-ins, the system uses predictive modeling to create what Dr. Liang describes as a “digital twin” of the patient’s dentition — simulating tooth movement across the entire treatment timeline before any hardware is placed.
How the SMILE-FX® AI Braces™ System Works
The process begins with a comprehensive 3D CBCT scan that captures the patient’s dental anatomy in submillimeter detail. This digital model is then processed through the SMILE-FX® proprietary AI engine, trained on the practice’s own case data in combination with established orthodontic research and industry datasets. The system analyzes alignment, spacing, bite relationship, and facial biometrics to generate a customized movement sequence.
The result is a frame-by-frame treatment simulation that Dr. Liang can review, adjust, and approve before the patient’s first bracket is placed. Patients receive a visual roadmap of their projected results, creating transparency that traditional consultations rarely offer. Once the treatment plan is finalized, SMILE-FX® utilizes 3D-printed indirect bonding transfer trays for precise bracket placement, with same-day fabrication capabilities that streamline the delivery process.
In the experience of SMILE-FX®, patients treated with the AI Braces™ approach have achieved treatment times as short as 4 to 6 months for qualifying cases, compared to the industry-typical range of 12 to 36 months. The practice also utilizes remote monitoring through the FDA-cleared DentalMonitoring app, reducing the need for frequent in-office visits while maintaining treatment precision.
Why AI Braces™ Represents a Category Shift
The orthodontic industry has seen significant technological advancement in recent years, from clear aligners to digital scanning. However, most innovations have focused on the appliance rather than the planning process. SMILE-FX® is taking a different approach by building intelligence into the treatment design itself.
“We are not competing on whether braces are metal or ceramic, visible or invisible,” Dr. Liang explained. “We are competing on precision. The AI Braces™ name reflects that this is a system built around predictive intelligence, not just traditional mechanics.”
The practice has also become a destination for patients seeking solutions after experiencing complications or unsatisfactory results elsewhere. The AI-driven diagnostic capabilities of the system are particularly well-suited for analyzing complex cases that may benefit from a more data-informed approach.
