A system and method include digitally determining a virtual insertion path of a digital dental restoration.

An orthodontic appliance and uses thereof are disclosed. The first orthodontic appliance includes a shell-like body at least having a geometric structure allowing at least one tooth in a posterior region to move in a distal direction. The shell-like body is further provided with an auxiliary anchoring portion capable of absorbing a reaction force generated by the at least one tooth in the posterior region while moving in the distal direction. Provided between the shell-like body and the auxiliary anchoring portion is an auxiliary transmitting portion used for aiding transmission of the reaction force generated by the at least one tooth in the posterior region while moving in the distal direction.

Systems and methods for providing oral devices using at-home dental impression kits are disclosed herein. An example method includes scheduling an at-home dental impression kit to be sent to a user that includes at least (i) one or more dental trays and (ii) one or more sets of dental putty that are configured to capture the gingiva of the user without distorting the gum lines of the user. The example method further includes scanning a first impression that is representative of the user's upper jaw, and a second impression that is representative of the user's lower jaw. The example method further includes generating a digital rendering of an oral device, and uploading the digital rendering to an application for viewing by the user. The example method further includes fabricating the oral device based upon digital rendering, and scheduling the oral device to be sent to the user.

A wax model of a required coping is produced using CNC machining techniques based on a virtual model of the coping created from digital data obtained from the intraoral cavity. The dental coping is then fabricated from the wax model.

Systems and methods for orthognathic surgical planning are described herein. An example computer-implemented method can include generating a composite three-dimensional (3D) model of a subject's skull, defining a global reference frame for the composite 3D model, performing a cephalometric analysis on the composite 3D model to quantify at least one geometric property of the subject's skull, performing a virtual osteotomy to separate the composite 3D model into a plurality of segments, performing a surgical simulation using the osteotomized segments, and designing a surgical splint or template for the subject.

An additively manufactured dental crown with a wall having a bottom edge and an occlusal portion joined with the wall opposite the bottom edge. The wall and occlusal portion form an interior surface and an opposing exterior surface. By using additive manufacturing and materials for such, the dental crown can have thin walls with a thickness of less than 300 microns at the thinnest portion of it and can include fine printed features such as identifiers, internal ribs, slots, porous meshes, and retention elements.

The invention comprises an improved method and system for building a denture. The invention further comprises a technique for building teeth and a denture base in a digital space. The invention even further comprises a method for adapting a digital denture base contemporaneously with changes made to digital teeth on the same model.

Method and prosthetic system for producing a substitution bridge structure with prosthetic teeth (6), for replacing an existing bridge structure (2) which is mounted on a base structure (1), wherein the base structure (1) is fixed to implants (10) by means of base screws (11) and the head (15) of the base screws (11) has a screw hole. A scan body is fixed to the head (15) of the base screws (11) and an intraoral scan of the oral cavity is executed and the scan data is related to a 3D digital model of the base structure (1) and/or of the existing bridge structure (2), wherein subsequently a 3D digital model of said substitution bridge structure is designed.

The invention relates to a computer system for providing a treatment proposal for a dentition of a patient. The computer system is configured to provide an current state model of the dentition and a target state model of the dentition; to provide a set of treatment options for treating the dentition, to check the provided treatment options, wherein the checking comprises determining whether the dentition of the patient is meeting the feasibility requirements assigned to the treatment option being checked; in case the dentition is determined to meet the feasibility requirements assigned to the treatment option being checked, to provide the treatment proposal identifying the respective treatment option and implementation parameters determined for the measures of the identified treatment option for modifying the current state model such that one or more discrepancies of the current state model relative to the target state model are compensated.

In various implementations, computer-implemented method, such as one executed on a computer system or on instructions stored on computer-readable media may include: receiving from a user device associated with a user, a request to access one or more treatment plans for patient; identifying a treatment template for user, the treatment template representing treatment preferences of the user, the treatment template being expressed according to treatment domain-specific protocols; processing the treatment template with the treatment domain-specific protocols to convert one or more parts of the treatment template into one or more runtime elements that interactively display customized user interface elements related to the treatment plan, the customized user interface elements configured to provide one or more customized user interactions with the treatment plan in accordance with the treatment preferences of the user; and providing instructions to display the one or more runtime elements on the user device.
