Abstract:
An intraoral scanner system includes an intraoral scanner having an imaging device and a sensing face, and a computing device, communicatively coupled to the intraoral scanner. The computing device receives a first intraoral images of a three-dimensional intraoral object of a patient generated by the intraoral scanner corresponding to an intraoral scanning of the three-dimensional intraoral object of the patient. The computing device registers a first intraoral image of the first intraoral images relative to a second intraoral image of the first intraoral images using a model of the three-dimensional intraoral object that existed prior to the intraoral scanning.
