Orthodontists
How orthodontists are reshaped as AGI capability advances.
The bottom line
About 45% of the work in Orthodontists is information-shaped and increasingly AI-deliverable, with the rest a hybrid of judgment and hands-on work. The automation frontier runs straight through the middle of this role.
Why: The role demonstrates a strong mix of software utilization and hands-on physical care. While 27 of 30 reported tools are in IT/software (segment 43, prior=0.85) and 'Documenting/Recording Information' is a key activity (4.12), the work context is overwhelmingly physical and in-person. Perfect scores in 'Wear Common Protective or Safety Equipment' (5.00) and 'Face-to-Face Discussions' (5.00), combined with high 'Physical Proximity' (4.84) and 'Working Directly with the Public' (3.99), anchor the core value-delivery in hands-on, human-to-human physical interaction, placing this squarely in the hybrid band.

Headless SaaS for Agents
The software here going agent-consumable — where the API, not the UI, becomes the way the work gets done.
Orthodontists uses 59 tools today. As each gains an agent-consumable surface (API / MCP / SDK), the human UI stops being the only way in — and the work routes straight to an agent.
+47 more via usesTool
Orthodontists relies on 32 products. The headless dimension of each — whether an agent can call it without a screen — is what decides how much of this work goes hands-free.
