Abstract: A virtual filler is inserted in a virtual model of a dental site between a first tooth and a second tooth in the virtual model. One or more of the first tooth or the second tooth represent a natural tooth of a patient. Points of the first tooth, the second tooth and the virtual filler are transformed into a voxel volume. A geometry of an updated virtual filler is determined by transforming a surface of the voxel volume into a polygonal mesh.

Abstract: A mobile device comprises a display, an image capture device that generates image data of a face of a viewer of the display, and a processing device. The processing device receives the image data and sends the image data to a computing device. The computing device processes the image data to identify a position of a dental arch in the image data; determines a treatment outcome for the dental arch; generates a post-treatment image of the dental arch that shows the treatment outcome; generates updated image data comprising a superimposition of the post-treatment image of the dental arch over the received image data; and sends the updated image data to the mobile device. The mobile device outputs the updated image data to the display, wherein the post-treatment image of the dental arch is superimposed over the dental arch in the received image data such that the post-treatment image is visible in the display rather than a true depiction of the dental arch.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for user modification of a rule or set of textual rules in plain language the reference instructions in a domain-specific treatment language that is used to generate dental appliance data. In some cases, the user may interact with a graphical user interface to modify a practitioner-specific subset of textural rules. The graphical user interface may allow modification of the practitioner-specific subset of textural rules without prior knowledge of the domain-specific treatment programming language. Each interaction region may cause sections of the predefined treatment preferences to be modified without knowledge of the dental protocol language. The example systems, methods, and/or computer-readable media described herein help with designing treatment plans for orthodontic treatments, including treatment plans based on predefined treatment preferences expressed in a dental protocol language.
