Abstract
A system and method include digitally determining a virtual insertion path of a digital dental restoration.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method of digital dental restoration insertion verification, comprising:
- receiving a digital model comprising a digital dental restoration and a digital preparation tooth;
- and
- digitally determining a virtual insertion path of the digital dental restoration to the digital preparation tooth, the virtual insertion path comprising a plurality of path positions and corresponding digital dental restoration orientations;
- and
- providing the digital dental restoration to computer aided manufacturing (“CAM”) and generating a physical dental restoration based on the digital dental restoration,
- wherein an initial virtual insertion path position of the virtual insertion path starts from a lifted position and terminates on the digital preparation tooth.
3 more elements
A system for digital dental restoration insertion verification, comprising:
- a processor;
- a computer-readable storage medium including instructions executable by the processor to perform steps including:
- digitally determining a virtual insertion path of the digital dental restoration to the digital preparation tooth, the virtual insertion path comprising a plurality of path positions and corresponding digital dental restoration orientations;
- and
- providing the digital dental restoration to computer aided manufacturing (“CAM”) and generating a physical dental restoration based on the digital dental restoration,
- wherein an initial virtual insertion path position of the virtual insertion path starts from a lifted position and terminates on the digital preparation tooth.
3 more elements
A non-transitory computer readable medium storing executable computer program instructions for digital dental restoration insertion verification, the computer program instructions including instructions for:
- receiving a digital model comprising a digital dental restoration and a digital preparation tooth;
- digitally determining a virtual insertion path of the digital dental restoration to the digital preparation tooth, the virtual insertion path comprising a plurality of path positions and corresponding digital dental restoration orientations;
- and
- providing the digital dental restoration to computer aided manufacturing (“CAM”) and generating a physical dental restoration based on the digital dental restoration,
- wherein an initial virtual insertion path position of the virtual insertion path starts from a lifted position and terminates on the digital preparation tooth.
2 more elements
A computer-implemented method of digital dental restoration insertion verification, comprising:
- generating a digital model from a scan of a physical impression, the digital model comprising a digital dental restoration and a digital preparation tooth;
- and
- digitally determining a virtual insertion path of the digital dental restoration to the digital preparation tooth, the virtual insertion path comprising a plurality of path positions and corresponding digital dental restoration orientations,
- wherein an initial virtual insertion path position of the virtual insertion path starts from a lifted position and terminates on the digital preparation tooth.
