1. Introduction
1.1. Scope
This document lists out the possible hazardous events that could be encountered during the utilization of the Exceed Doctor Software system with the severity and likelyhood pointed out for every type of event.
1.2. Definitions, Acronyms, and Abbreviations
Bracket/s (appliance/s) Small objects, typically made of metal, ceramic or composite, that are cemented onto the teeth to be used as anchorage points for the wires, as part of an orthodontic correction.
3D Model (model) 3D computer replica of the patient's teeth, produced by digitizing dental casts or impressions of the patient's mouth or by direct, intra-oral scanning. Refers to a specific order.
Data Exchange Server A computer used to store data about Orders and information exchange between EDS, DPO (see below) and the Exceed Center. The Data Exchange Server is part of Exceed Software System.
DPO Doctor's Personal Office - a web application allowing to upload patient records, submit, manage and track Orders. The DPO is part of Exceed Software System.
ECS Exceed Center Software System - the software used by Exceed Center employees to generate Rx and Tx Placement Plans. The ECS is part of Exceed Software System.
EDS Exceed Doctor Software System - the software used by the treating clinician to analyze, modify and approve Rx and Tx Placement Plans. The EDS is part of the Exceed Software System.
ES Exceed Software System - System formation, registration procurement and fulfillment of Orders for the production of bracketing trays
Exceed Center An office where employees are using the ECS to generate Rx and Tx Placement Plans.
Hazard Analysis
2f
Order/s (Case/s) Request for a virtual bracket placement plan and the subsequent production of bracketing trays. Each request is linked to a 3D-model of the patient's dentition.
Placement Modification/s (Modification/s)
Dr.-adjusted modification of the Placement Plan. Refers to a specific order. Each Placement Plan can be modified a few times.
Placement Plan/s (Plan/s) Layout of the brackets positioned on the patient's teeth, originally prepared by the Exceed Center. Refers to a specific order.
Rx Case Order of the Rx service
Rx Plan/s Mathematical calculation displaying the recommended positioning of Brackets on the patient's teeth, based on the pre-treatment 3D Model, the type of orthodontic brackets utilized, and the clinician's general pre-treatment bracketing preferences.
Rx Service Production of bracketing trays based on the Doctor-approved Rx Plan.
Scene 3D virtual space to display the 3D Model, as well as the Placement Plans.
Tx Case/s Order of a Tx service
Tx Plan/s A mathematical calculation of the recommended positioning of Brackets on the patient's malocclusion, based on dynamic tooth movement from the pre-treatment malocclusion to a desired post-treatment outcome. It is based on the pre-treatment 3D Model, the type of brackets utilized, the treatment plan prescribed by the clinician, the clinician's general post-treatment treatment preferences, as well as intra-oral images, facial photos and panoramic radiographs of the patient.
Tx Service Production of bracketing trays based on the doctor-approved Tx Plan.
Wire/s Ligament, typically made of metal or smart alloys that are attached to orthodontic brackets and are used to apply forces on the teeth, as part of an orthodontic correction.
