Dental treatment monitoring systems and methods may include accessing an input image of teeth taken at a particular time during dental treatment, and determining virtual-camera parameters that represent an estimated position and orientation of a virtual camera for producing a generated image from a time-projected 3D model of the teeth. The virtual-camera parameters may be iteratively adjusted by: generating a first generated image by modifying the virtual-camera parameters based on a first jaw in the generated image; determining a pixel-associated cost based on a comparison of the first generated image to the input image; generating a second generated image by modifying the first virtual-camera parameters based a second jaw in the first generated image; and determining a pixel-associated cost based on a comparison of the second generated image and the input image. The generated image may be generated from the time-projected 3D model using the adjusted virtual-camera parameters.
