Abstract: Systems and methods including: receiving, from a digital imaging device, one or more 2D images of a patient's face including a mouth region, where the one or more 2D images include a depiction of the patient's teeth in an initial arrangement; generating, using a neural network, a 2D rendering depicting a post-treatment arrangement of the patient's teeth based on the one or more received 2D images; generating a realistic composite 2D image depicting the patient's face with the 2D rendering depicting the post-treatment arrangement of the patient's teeth, where the generating includes positioning the 2D rendering within a mouth opening of the patient's face in the realistic composite 2D image; and sending the realistic composite 2D image to an output device for display on a user interface of the output device.

Abstract: Provided herein are orthodontic systems and methods for automatically segmenting a person's teeth. Systems, methods and processes are provided to properly segment the teeth of a person's teeth from an image of the person's face showing at least some of the person's teeth (e.g., dental arch). Methods and systems are provided to automatically detect dental edges after a dental scan. Also described herein are methods and systems for generating a simulated image of the person's face from the final segmentation of the person's teeth in which the segmented teeth have been moved from their original position, including a new position based on an orthodontic treatment plan.

Abstract: A method may include: receiving facial image of the patient that depicts the patient's teeth; receiving a 3D model of the patient's teeth; determining color palette of the depiction of the patient's teeth; coding 3D model of the patient's teeth based on attributes of the 3D model; providing the 3D model, the color palette, and the coded 3D model to a neural network; processing the 3D model, the color palette, and the coded 3D model by the neural network to generate a processed image of the patient's teeth; simulating specular highlights on the processed image of the patient's teeth; and inserting the processed image of the patient's teeth into a mouth opening of the facial image.

Abstract: Systems and methods for generating a virtual depiction of an orthodontic treatment of a patient are provided. In some embodiments, a system includes one or more processors, and a memory operably coupled to the one or more processors. The memory can include instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to perform operations including: receiving one or more 2D images of a patient’s face including a mouth region; extracting teeth contours of the patient’s teeth from within the mouth region of the received 2D images; generating, using a neural network, a 2D rendering depicting a post-treatment arrangement of the patient’s teeth; generating a realistic composite 2D image depicting the patient’s face with the 2D rendering depicting the post-treatment arrangement of the patient’s teeth; and sending the realistic composite 2D image to an output device for display on a user interface of the output device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for planning a treatment for a patient's teeth are provided. In some embodiments, a method includes receiving a treatment plan including a target tooth arrangement including a change in mass of at least one tooth. The method can also include outputting a graphical user interface including a visualization of the treatment plan. The visualization can include a plurality of digital models, each digital model representing an intermediate tooth arrangement configured to adjust the patient's teeth toward the target tooth arrangement. The visualization can also include a heatmap overlaid onto at least one digital model of the plurality of digital models. The heatmap can show a difference in tooth mass between the target tooth arrangement and the corresponding at least one intermediate tooth arrangement of the at least one digital model.

Abstract: Systems and methods for planning a treatment for a patient's teeth are provided. In some embodiments, a method includes receiving an image of a patient's face and determining a plurality of facial lines using the image of the patient's face. The plurality of facial lines can represent a target smile for the patient. The method can further include outputting a visualization including the plurality of facial lines overlaid onto a composite image. The composite image can include the image of the patient's face combined with a digital model of the patient's teeth. The digital model can represent a tooth arrangement of a treatment plan to adjust the patient's teeth from an initial arrangement toward a target tooth arrangement corresponding to the target smile.
