Methodology & Theoretical Orientation: Eye tracker devices have emerged as valuable tools in the field of orthodontics, revolutionizing treatment planning, design, and patient engagement. By leveraging the data obtained through these devices, orthodontists can enhance treatment outcomes and deliver personalized care that aligns with patient. As the field of orthodontics continues to embrace technological advancements, eye tracker devices offer a promising methodology for optimizing orthodontic treatment and improving patient satisfaction. Findings: The use of eye tracker devices in orthodontics has generated valuable research insights. Eye tracking studies have explored various aspects of orthodontic treatment, such as smile attractiveness, midline position, and buccal corridors, providing evidence-based knowledge to guide treatment planning and aesthetics. Conclusion & Significance: The utilization of eye tracker devices in orthodontics has led to improved treatment planning. By analyzing the visual attention and gaze patterns of patients, orthodontists can better understand how individuals perceive treatment-related materials and optimize treatment options based on patients' individual visual preferences and perceptions. Eye tracker devices have facilitated a more personalized and patient-centered approach to orthodontic treatment. By integrating eye tracker data with digital imaging and orthodontic software, clinicians can tailor treatment plans to align with patients' visual preferences, resulting in improved patient satisfaction and treatment adherence.
