    Abstract: The invention could be a process for creating a dental anatomical representation comprising the following steps, seating radiopaque elastomer material between an upper jaw and a lower jaw of a mouth of a patient, the patient then fully biting down upon the radiopaque elastomer material to form the radiopaque elastomer material into a physical record of at least a portion of each of the two jaws and each jaw's position relative to the other jaw; taking a first scan of the patient's mouth with the formed radiopaque elastomer material in place between the jaws; and creating a virtual representation of the formed radiopaque elastomer material from data presented in the first scan, then using the virtual representation to align and correlate data obtained from the first scan and any other scans of a patient's anatomy.
