A method for facilitating a tooth repositioning dental treatment includes: receiving a CT scan of a patient's oral dental structure, receiving an optical scan of the patient's oral dental structure, aligning the CT scan and the optical scan, establishing an initial model of the patient's oral dental structure based on the CT scan and the optical scan, simulating tooth movements to produce a final model of the patient's oral dental structure after the tooth repositioning dental treatment, generating a plurality of models of the patient's oral dental structure representing successive tooth movements from the initial model to the final model, and preparing dental aligners based on the plurality of models of the patient's oral dental structure.
