    Abstract: A method for training a neural network intended to analyze a dental situation of an updated patient. A historical learning database is created that relates to a dental body and to a spatial attribute associated with the dental body. The historical learning database includes more than 1,000 historical records, with each historical record relating to a respective historical patient. Each record including a set of historical images all depicting the dental body in the historical patient, called “historical dental body” and an item of spatial information including, for the historical patient, a set of values for the spatial attribute, called “historical spatial information.” The neural network is trained, by providing it with the sets of historical images as input and with the historical spatial information as output, with the spatial attribute defining an ordered sequence of variables in a three-dimensional reference frame.

    Abstract: Imaging device to acquire dental image having a support. The device includes a rigid portion on which an acquisition apparatus is to be fastened and a deformable portion defining a retractor opening. Associated method to manufacture a support of an imaging device to acquire dental image. The method includes manufacturing of a precursor of the support, in a first place, and providing the precursor to an operator, in a second place away from the first place. The distance between the first place and the second place is preferably greater than 1 km and/or less than 20 000 km. The method includes transformation of the precursor into the support.

    Abstract: A method to acquire dental images of a patient with a support defining a chamber that is in communication with an outside of said chamber via a first opening and via a second opening. The method includes the following steps: fixing a mobile phone in front of the second opening; positioning the first opening in front of a mouth of the patient; and acquiring at least one dental image by means of the mobile phone.

    Abstract: A method for generating an image of a dental arch of a beneficiary, called “modified image.” The method includes, at an acquisition time, acquiring a photo depicting the dental arch, called “original image.” The method successively includes processing the original image such that it depicts discriminating information. The method successively includes submitting the original image at the input of a neural network, called “simulation neural network”, trained, based on the original image, to simulate, on the original image, the effect of a dental event, in order to obtain the modified image.

    Abstract: A dental photography kit that includes a support, taking the form of a housing. The support includes a support attachment part. The kit includes a dental retractor that defines a retractor opening and that includes a retractor attachment part that is removably attached to the support attachment part when the retractor is in the mounted position on the support. The kit includes a camera that is removably attached to the support in an operating position in which the camera is oriented to receive an at least partial image of the retractor opening. The retractor attachment part is articulated on the support attachment part.

    Abstract: A method for enriching a historical learning base. Training of a first neural network to transform first photos of first dental scenes into first hyper-realistic images to simulate the effect of a dental event on the first dental scenes. Submission, to the trained first neural network, of a source photo representing a source dental scene in a dental context, so as to obtain a final image representing, hyper-realistically, the source dental scene after simulation of the dental event. Creation of a descriptor of the final image, or “final descriptor.” Creation of a historical record consisting of the final image and the final descriptor, and addition of the historical record in the historical learning base.

    Abstract: A method for evaluating an orthodontic appliance. Acquisition of a two-dimensional “appliance image” of teeth at least partially representing the orthodontic appliance in a service position. Acquisition of a two-dimensional “dentition image” of the teeth. If a determination of comparable dental and appliance attributes is not possible from the appliance image and from the dentition image, respectively, conversion of the appliance image and/or of the dentition image so that the appliance image be compatible with the dentition image. Determination of dental and appliance attributes relative to the shape of the tooth represented on the dentition image and relative to the shape of the orthodontic appliance on the appliance image. Comparison of the dental and appliance attributes, followed by determination of at least one score. At least one image is acquired with a mobile phone.

    Abstract: A method for evaluating the shape of an orthodontic aligner worn by a patient. Acquisition of at least one two-dimensional image of teeth of the patient as “updated image.” At least one updated image as “aligner image,” at least partially representing the aligner in a service position. At least one updated image as “dentition image,” representing the teeth. If the dentition image is different from the aligner image, conversion of the dentition image so that it represents the teeth as seen under the acquisition conditions used during the acquisition of the aligner image. Determination, for each of a plurality of teeth represented on the dentition and aligner images, of interior and exterior tooth outlines representing the outline of the free end of the tooth on the dentition and aligner images. Comparison of the interior and exterior tooth outlines, followed by determination of at least one score according to the comparison.
