  • SYSTEMS, APPARATUSES, AND METHODS FOR CREATING DIGITAL DENTAL PROSTHESIS MODELS
    Publication number: 20260033926
    Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods are provided for creating a digital model of a dental prosthesis. Information about the dental prosthesis to be modeled is received, and an initial model of the dental prosthesis is generated based on the received information. Information for modifying the initial model of the dental prosthesis is received. A modified model of the dental prosthesis is generated based on the information for modifying the initial model of the dental prosthesis. At least one of the information about the dental prosthesis and the information for modifying the initial model of the dental prosthesis is received by the computer system in the form of voice or text. Artificial intelligence can be used in at least one of the generation of the initial model of the dental prosthesis and the generation of the modified model of the dental prosthesis.

  • Method for constructing a restoration
    Patent number: 11534275
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for constructing a restoration, in which a dental situation is measured by means of a dental camera and a 3D model of the dental situation is generated. In this case, a computer-assisted detection algorithm is applied to the 3D model of the dental situation, wherein a type of restoration and/or at least a tooth number and/or a position of the restoration to be inserted are automatically determined.

  • METHOD FOR CONSTRUCTING A RESTORATION
    Publication number: 20200000562
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for constructing a restoration (1), in which a dental situation (3) is measured by means of a dental camera (2) and a 3D model (4) of the dental situation (3) is generated. In this case, a computer-assisted detection algorithm is applied to the 3D model (4) of the dental situation (3), wherein a type of restoration (17) and/or at least a tooth number (18) and/or a position of the restoration (1) to be inserted are automatically determined.
