Abstract

An automated method for aligning a 3D dental library model to 3D oral scan data includes determining a valid tooth of the 3D oral scan data, extracting scan landmarks of the 3D oral scan data, loading a dental library model corresponding to the valid tooth of the 3D oral scan data, extracting library landmarks of the 3D dental library model, initial-aligning the 3D dental library model to the 3D oral scan data using the scan landmarks and the library landmarks and matching an individual tooth of the 3D dental library model and an individual tooth of the 3D oral scan data.
