  • Publication number: 20260215885
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods of producing a bracket guide, such as an orthodontic bracket guide. The methods may include placing a bracket model on a tooth object of a dentition model, generating a bracket guide foundation volume such that the generating exposes at least a portion of the bracket model, and producing a physical bracket guide based, at least in part, on the bracket guide foundation volume. Also disclosed herein are a computer-readable storage medium comprising program instructions that perform the methods, and a computing system comprising one or more processors and the computer-readable storage medium.

  • Patent number: 8805048
    Abstract: A method for generating a cephalometric analysis of an orthodontic patient is disclosed. A sequence of images that may each correspond to a specific anatomical plane of the patient is received. Then, a volumetric representation of the patient is derived from a combination of the sequence of the images. One or more markers associated with particular anatomical landmarks of the patient according to a predefined analysis method are received. The markers are defined by a set of coordinate values, and are designated via an interactive user interface to a two-dimensional representation derived from the volumetric representation. Connectors between one or more of the markers are generated in accordance with the predefined analysis method, and a visual representation of the markers and the connectors are overlaid on the volumetric representation.
