  • Patent number: 11960795
    Abstract: Techniques are described for automating the design of dental restoration appliances using neural networks. An example computing device receives transform information associated with a current dental anatomy of a dental restoration patient, provides the transform information associated with the current dental anatomy of the dental restoration patient as input to a neural network trained with transform information indicating placement of a dental appliance component with respect to one or more teeth of corresponding dental anatomies, the dental appliance being used for dental restoration treatment for the one or more teeth, and executes the neural network using the input to produce placement information for the dental appliance component with respect to the current dental anatomy of the dental restoration patient.

  • Publication number: 20240008955
    Abstract: Machine learning, or geometric deep learning, applied to various dental processes and 5 solutions. In particular, generative adversarial networks apply machine learning to smile design—finished smile, appliance rendering, scan cleanup, restoration appliance design, crown and bridges design, and virtual debonding. Vertex and edge classification apply machine learning to gum versus teeth detection, teeth type segmentation, and brackets and other orthodontic hardware. Regression applies machine learning to coordinate systems, diagnostics, case complexity, and 0 prediction of treatment duration. Automatic encoders and clustering apply machine learning to grouping of doctors, or technicians, and preferences.
