Abstract
A method of providing restorative decision support for a dental patient includes receiving image data of an intraoral cavity of a patient, the image data corresponding to one or more imaging modalities; deriving a plurality of parameters from the image data; applying a decision model to the plurality of parameters; and generating a restorative decision recommendation based on an output of the decision model.
Claims24
A method of providing restorative decision support for a dental patient, the method comprising:
- receiving image data of an intraoral cavity of a patient, the image data corresponding to one or more imaging modalities;
- deriving a plurality of parameters from the image data;
- applying a decision model to the plurality of parameters;
- and
- generating a restorative decision recommendation based on an output of the decision model.
A method comprising:
- identifying a tooth having an associated dental condition based on a first set of parameters derived from current image data of an intraoral cavity of a patient;
- presenting in a graphical user interface (GUI) a 2D or 3D image of the intraoral cavity of the patient and an indication of the tooth having the associated dental condition;
- and
- presenting in the GUI a restorative decision recommendation based on an output of a decision model for which the first set of parameters is used as input.
A method comprising:
- receiving image data corresponding to an intraoral cavity of a patient;
- applying a trained machine learning model to the image data to derive a plurality of parameters from the image data;
- and
- applying a decision model to the plurality of parameters to generate a restorative decision recommendation.
A dental diagnostics system comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- a processing device to execute instructions from the memory to perform a method comprising:
- receiving image data of an intraoral cavity of a patient, the image data corresponding to one or more imaging modalities;
- deriving a plurality of parameters from the image data;
- applying a decision model to the plurality of parameters;
- and
- generating a restorative decision recommendation based on an output of the decision model.
