Innovative Methods for Integrating Intra-Oral Scans into 3D Facial Images in Dentistry

Posted: January 9, 2025
This study compares two experimental methods, using cheek retractors and a tracer, to integrate intra-oral scans into 3D stereophotogrammetric images in dentistry. While both methods show promising results with most measurements falling within clinically acceptable thresholds, there are deviations in pitch orientation and translation along the Y-axis. Improving accuracy in these areas is crucial for precise model positioning. By optimizing workflow and data processing, non-ionizing 3D fusion models can replace conventional cephalograms, reducing ionizing doses in orthodontic treatment.
