摘要: An intraoral scanning apparatus has a mouthpiece and a transport apparatus that defines at least a first curved track within the mouthpiece. An image sensor is movable along the first curved track. A scanner is movable along the first curved track, scanning in synchronization with the image sensor and having an illumination source that has a laser light source and beam-shaping optics in the path of the laser light for forming a linear light pattern. At least one actuator is energizable to move the image sensor and scanner along the first curved track for image acquisition. A control logic processor synchronizes the scanner and image sensor for automated acquisition of surface contour data. A display is in signal communication with the control logic processor to process and display the acquired surface contour data.

摘要: A method for acquiring image data obtains, for an intraoral feature, optical coherence tomography (OCT) data in three dimensions wherein at least one dimension is pseudo-randomly or randomly sampled and reconstructs an image volume of the intraoral feature using compressive sensing, wherein data density of the reconstructed image volume is larger than that of the obtained OCT data in the at least one dimension or according to a corresponding transform. The method renders the reconstructed image volume for display.

摘要: A method for generating a digital model of dentition, executed at least in part by a computer, acquires a 3-D digital mesh that is representative of the dentition along a dental arch, including includes braces, teeth, and gingival tissue. The method modifies the 3-D digital mesh to generate a digital mesh dentition model by processing the digital mesh and automatically detecting one or more initial bracket positions from the acquired mesh, processing the initial bracket positions to identify bracket areas for braces that lie against tooth surfaces, identifying one or more brace wires extending between brackets, removing one or more brackets and one or more wires from the dentition model, and forming a reconstructed tooth surface within the digital mesh dentition model where the one or more brackets have been removed. The modified 3-D digital mesh dentition model is displayed, stored, or transmitted over a network to another computer.

摘要: Method and/or apparatus embodiments for 3-D cephalometric analysis of a patient, acquires reconstructed volume image data from a computed tomographic scan of a patient's head including one or more dentition elements within the mouth of the patient, and computes one or more cephalometric parameters for the patient according to the reconstructed volume image data and the one or more dentition elements. One or more results generated from cephalometric analysis of the one or more computed cephalometric parameters can be stored, transmitted or displayed. The reconstructed volume image data is updated with 3D surface model from a subsequent optical scan of the patient's dentition and the one or more cephalometric parameters for the patient are re¬ computed based on the updated reconstructed volume image data.

摘要: A method for visualizing patient dentition acquires a contour image of patient dentition and segments the contour image to identify one or more segmented teeth. At least one deciduous tooth among the one or more segmented teeth is identified. A virtual model of a target dentition arrangement of the patient dentition is generated, wherein the at least one deciduous tooth is replaced by a replacement permanent tooth.

摘要: A computer-implemented method for generating a digital model of an individual intraoral component from a digital model of a patient's dentition obtains a 3-D digital mesh model of the patient's dentition and performs automatic tooth component segmentation operation on the obtained mesh model. Automated segmentation results display. Interactive segmentation of the automated segmentation results is performed according to an operator instruction. Segmentation results are displayed and stored.

摘要: A method for three-dimensional imaging stores a first image of field of view from a handheld optical coherence tomography (OCT) scanning device at a first position where a first OCT scan of an object is captured with the scanning device freely operated by a user. A location metric of a second image of field of view of the scanning device is estimated at a second position relative to the first image while the scanning device is moved from the first to the second position. Instructions on providing user feedback are generated based on the location metric. Feedback is provided to indicate if the second position is adequate for a second OCT scan, wherein providing feedback includes providing user perceivable light of a first color to indicate that the second position is adequate and providing user perceivable light of a second color to indicate that the second position is not adequate.

摘要: A programmable light source has a broadband light emitter disposed to direct light to an optical filter. The optical filter has a collimator lens in the path of the directed light from the emitter, a dispersion optic in the path of incident light from the collimator lens and angularly disposed to form a spectrally dispersed output beam from the incident beam, a focusing lens in the path of the spectrally dispersed output beam, and a spatial light modulator in the focal region of the focusing lens, the spatial light modulator disposed to reflect sequential spectral portions of the spectrally dispersed output beam back toward the focusing lens.
