Anchors: ~811 starts/yr and ~59 debands/mo (so the pool grows ~100/yr as-is); aligner 10.8 vs braces 15.1 visits/case; KLOwen bond 49 vs 69 min; DM ~3-4 fewer visits/aligner case. Smarter levers mostly lift margin and the feel of the day, not the top line. Sliders are capped at what's realistic over two years, not what's possible in theory.
The deband gap - where the need actually is
Deband demand grows with starts, regardless of digital-ortho adoption. It is gated entirely by licensed-provider hours - assistants cannot run the handpiece, so freed chair time never becomes deband capacity.

Capacity by role - under the days you've set
Green under 85% · amber 85-98% · red over 98%; the mark is 100%. Deband is excluded from the assistant-chair total here and tracked separately above, since it runs through Marie's chair(s), not the 5 main chairs.

Each row now scales by its own driver: new-patient volume for NP6/NP5/OBS2/RR/CON/SCRN, brace-mix volume for GEN4/A2/A3/ST6/SOS/CK, aligner volume for GEN5/SCN3/IMP2/SCN2. MWD5 and RR are further overridden by the systems levers above.
