Abstract: A method includes identifying first geometry of a first mold associated with a first dental arch and a second geometry of a second mold associated with a second dental arch. The method further includes determining, based on the first geometry and the second geometry that the first mold and the second mold are to be used for simultaneous forming of a first dental appliance and a second dental appliance on a plate in a dental appliance manufacturing system. The method further includes causing, based on the first geometry and the second geometry, one or more portions of the dental appliance manufacturing system to be configured to form the first dental appliance and the second dental appliance.

Abstract: A method includes identifying one or more images of a mold of a dental arch, identifying a digital model corresponding to the mold of the dental arch, providing the one or more images and the digital model as input into a trained machine learning model, receiving, from the trained machine learning model, output, and determining, based on the output, whether the mold matches the digital model.

Abstract: An end effector tool includes a fluid containing portion and an actuator. The fluid containing portion includes a distal wall located at a first distal end of the fluid containing portion and one or more sidewalls extending from the distal wall. The distal wall and the one or more sidewalls partially enclose an interior volume of the end effector tool. A fluid is disposed in the interior volume. The actuator is configured to apply energy to the fluid to change the fluid between a liquid state and a solid state. The fluid containing portion is to be placed over a dental product to cover the dental product with the fluid in the liquid state. The fluid is to secure the dental product responsive to the fluid being changed from the liquid state to the solid state.
