Abstract: Systems and methods for designing additively manufactured objects are provided. In some embodiments, a method includes receiving a treatment plan for a patient's teeth, and determining a set of appliance parameters for a dental appliance configured to implement the treatment plan. The method can also include determining a set of manufacturing parameters for a fabrication system to be used to additively manufacture the dental appliance. The method can further include generating a 3D digital representation of an appliance geometry for the dental appliance. The appliance geometry can be configured to mitigate loss of fidelity at a target region of the dental appliance due to at least one manufacturing parameter of the fabrication system.

Abstract: Systems and methods for manufacturing objects are provided herein. In some embodiments, a method includes: receiving a digital representation of a plurality of objects; forming a first portion of each object of the plurality of objects based on the digital representation, using an additive manufacturing process; obtaining sensor data of the first portion of each object; determining whether an error is present in the first portion of an object of the plurality of objects, based on the sensor data; in response to a determination that the error is present in the first portion of the object, modifying the digital representation to remove the object having the error; and forming a second portion of each remaining object of the plurality of objects based on the modified digital representation, using the additive manufacturing process.

Abstract: Systems and methods for manufacturing objects are provided herein. In some embodiments, a system includes a printer assembly configured to perform an additive manufacturing process with a curable material, at least one sensor, and a material removal device. The system can be configured to form an object portion from the curable material using the printer assembly. The system can be configured to generate sensor data of the object portion using the at least one sensor, and determine whether an error is present in the object portion based on the sensor data. In response to a determination that the error is present in the object portion, the system can be configured to remove a region of the object portion containing the error using the material removal device.

Abstract: A method of treating malocclusions of teeth may include receiving a scan of a patient's teeth and generating a treatment plan to move a patient's teeth from a first position toward a second position. The treatment plan may include moving a jaw from a first position towards a second position. The treatment plan may include a series of jaw movement stages to move the jaw from the first position towards the second position. The method may include generating a digital model of an aligner having mandibular relocation structures. A location of the mandibular relocation structures may be based on a set of location constraints. The method may include fabricating a physical aligner based on the digital model of the aligner.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for taking snapshots in a deduplicated virtual file system may include (1) maintaining a deduplicated virtual file system that stores, at an original location within a non-virtual file system, at least one configuration file storing metadata for a target file and an extent map for the target file, the extent map defining how to construct the target file from deduplicated data segments in a deduplicated storage system, (2) receiving a request to take a snapshot of the target file corresponding to the configuration file, (3) copying the configuration file storing metadata for the target file and the extent map for the target file into a snapshot location within the non-virtual file system, and (4) transmitting a file reference request to the deduplicated storage system to add a file reference within the deduplicated storage system. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
