Abstract: Provided herein are methods and apparatuses for analyzing a patient's dental arches in order to generate a treatment plan for the dentition. In particular described herein are methods and apparatuses for analyzing a patient's dental arches when the patient is missing one or more teeth. Methods and apparatuses are provided to properly number the teeth of a patient's arches after a dental scan, including automatically detect missing teeth after a dental scan and estimating the dimensions of the missing teeth. Methods and apparatuses are provided to perform an analysis of the patient's arches that uses the estimated dimensions of the missing teeth. Methods and apparatuses for designing and manufacturing the aligner are also provided.

Abstract: Orthodontic and/or dental treatment planning methods and apparatuses. In particular, described herein are methods of generating a plurality of potential treatment plan variations for the concurrent and interactive review of the treatment plan variations. Each variation may be optimized to best address the user's treatment goals, as well as approximating as closely as possible an ideal or target final position. Also described herein are orthodontic and/or dental treatment planning methods and apparatuses that allow a user to form, modify, and select a treatment plan from a plurality of different treatment plans, in real time.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for adjusting three-dimensional (3D) dental model data of a patient's dentition to detect and remove one or more attachments on a dental structure (e.g., tooth) of the patient's dentition. These methods and apparatuses may be used for generating treatment plans for treating the patient's teeth, including for more accurately and efficiently aligning the patient's teeth.
