S1: oral scan data is acquired.
The oral scan data may be point cloud data obtained by scanning an oral cavity with an optical scanner, image data obtained by tomographic imaging of an oral cavity with a computer-aided imaging (CT) technique, or an oral model obtained by three-dimensional reconstruction of the point cloud data or the image data. Mesh data representing the tooth surface is typically included in the oral model, and in particular, the mesh data typically includes a plurality of mesh vertices located on the tooth surface, adjacent mesh vertices defining meshes (typically triangles, possibly quadrilaterals, etc.), which form the surface of the tooth.
The oral scan data sent by the other device may be received from an input device or a communication device or read from a memory.
S2: and identifying the oral scanning data to obtain a plurality of tooth characteristic points of the target dental jaw and the long axis directions of the teeth.
For ease of understanding, the arrangement of teeth will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. As shown in fig. 3, the permanent teeth of a person are divided into upper and lower jaws according to the jaw where they are located, and the upper and lower jaws may be divided into left and right parts by a midline, which are called segments. Regardless of the missing teeth, the arrangement of the teeth as a whole is satisfactory for bilateral symmetry and up-down symmetry. Teeth can be largely classified into incisors, cuspids, premolars, and molars, which are arranged in order from the middle to the edges. In the dental chart shown in fig. 3, each tooth has a number of 1 and 2 digits, namely a dental number, wherein the first digit represents a section where the tooth is located, specifically, 1 represents a right section of the upper jaw, abbreviated as an upper right section, 2 represents a left section of the upper jaw, abbreviated as an upper left section, 3 represents a left section of the lower jaw, abbreviated as a lower left section, and 4 represents a right section of the lower jaw, abbreviated as a lower right section; the second bit indicates the number of the tooth in the segment, starting from 1, increasing in sequence from the middle to the edge, i.e. the number of the middle incisors is 1, the number of the side incisors is 2, and so on. For the deciduous teeth, the tooth numbers of the teeth in the upper right section are 51-55, the tooth numbers of the teeth in the upper left section are 61-65, the tooth numbers of the teeth in the lower left section are 71-75, and the tooth numbers of the teeth in the lower right section are 81-85. Fig. 3 shows an ideal permanent tooth arrangement, and in fact, there may be some missing teeth due to various factors such as wisdom tooth not growing, tooth extraction, etc.
The target dental jaw may include at least one of an upper jaw and a lower jaw, without limitation. For simplicity of explanation, the description will be given below with reference to the upper jaw, and so on, the lower jaw can be obtained.
If the oral cavity scanning data are point cloud data or image data, the oral cavity scanning data are required to be subjected to three-dimensional reconstruction to obtain an oral cavity model, and then identification is carried out. For the oral cavity model, the grid data can be identified to obtain the existing information of the shape, position, size and the like of each tooth, the type and number of each tooth are determined according to the information, and the characteristic point and the long axis direction of each tooth are calculated. The specific manner of three-dimensional reconstruction and recognition can be conventional image processing or neural network-based, and is not limited herein.
The tooth feature points may include at least one of a center point, a cusp point, and a center socket point of the tooth. For instance, in one specific example, a tooth model derived from oral scan data and identified tooth feature points are shown in fig. 4.
In one embodiment of the application, the tooth feature points may include the center point and cusp points of the incisors, the center point of the cusps, and the center points of the premolars and molars, so that the resulting arch curve is better positioned in the center of the alveolar process. More specifically, in consideration of possible missing teeth, the tooth center points of the teeth 11, 12, 21, 22, the tooth cusp points, the tooth center points of the teeth 13, 23, and the center points of the teeth 14, 15, 16, 24, 25, 26 may be selected as the tooth feature points in order to improve the applicability of the tooth feature points.
S3: an average value of the long axis directions of the plurality of teeth is calculated.
The long axis direction of the tooth is also understood as a rotation of the long axis of the tooth with respect to the coordinate system of the oral model, and may be expressed in various forms, for example, a rotation angle, a unit quaternion, a rotation matrix, etc., and a manner of calculating the average value may be selected according to a specific expression manner.
S4: the dental arch plane of the target dental jaw is determined with the average value as the normal direction.
Since the long axis is an imaginary straight line passing through the centers of the crown and the root, the long axis direction average value can reflect the orientation of the teeth on the target jaw as a whole, so that the arch plane with the long axis direction as the normal direction is substantially parallel to the crest of the tooth.
The only plane in three-dimensional space can be determined by combining the normal direction and a point on the plane. This point may be designated, for example, as the origin of the oral coordinate system, and specifically may be the origin of the coordinate system dividing the upper and lower jaw and left and right segments. Or this point may be determined from the identified tooth feature points, as described in more detail below in the examples.
As shown in fig. 5, in an embodiment of the present application, S4 may specifically include the following parts.
S41: the target point is determined according to the tooth characteristic points.
Specifically, the target point may be determined from the cusp of the central incisor. Since there are generally two central incisors on the target jaw, the cusp points of 1 central incisor may be selected as the target point, or a weighted average of the cusp points of 2 central incisors may be calculated as the target point.
S42: and determining the dental arch plane according to the target point and the average value.
The target point is on the dental arch plane, and the normal direction of the dental arch plane is the average value of the long axis direction, so that the specific expression of the dental arch plane can be obtained.
S5: and projecting the plurality of tooth characteristic points onto the dental arch plane to obtain a plurality of projection characteristic points.
The coordinates of the projection feature points are two-dimensional coordinates in the dental arch plane coordinate system.
S6: and performing curve fitting by using a plurality of projection characteristic points to obtain a dental arch curve.
Specifically, the fitted equation may employ a fourth order polynomial of the expression ofWherein a, b, c, d and e are coefficients that need to be solved. And (3) taking the plurality of projection characteristic points obtained in the step (S5) as a fitting point set, substituting coordinates of the points into the expression to perform curve fitting, and obtaining coefficients a, b, c, d and e. For example, the fitting may be performed using a least squares method, i.e., coefficients a, b, c, d and e are calculated with the goal of fitting the sum of squares of the distances from each point in the point set to the curve.
S7: the oral scan data is identified to determine truncated teeth.
In some embodiments, S7 and S8 may be omitted, e.g., the dental arch may not be truncated, or fixed teeth may be selected as truncated teeth, etc.
A dental arch curve generally corresponds to the left and right truncated teeth. Considering that in practical applications, teeth may be missing, the use of a common tooth as a uniform truncated tooth may not reflect the actual tooth condition. Thus, in some embodiments, the oral scan data may be identified, specific information of the teeth at the gingival margin determined and used as truncated teeth, and the dental arch curve truncated according to the mesh vertices of the truncated teeth, thereby providing a more accurate dental arch curve for subsequent measurement and reference. For example, if teeth 16-18 are missing and tooth 15 is at the gingival margin, tooth 15 is the truncated tooth; if the teeth 27-28 are missing and the tooth 26 is located at the gingival margin, the tooth 26 is the truncated tooth.
S7 is only required to be executed before S8, and the execution sequence between S1 and S6 is not limited.
As shown in fig. 6, in an embodiment of the present application, S7 may specifically include the following portions.
S71: a set of candidate teeth is obtained.
The set of candidate teeth includes at least one candidate tooth, the dental arch curve obtained by using the candidate teeth as truncated teeth has high accuracy, and the dental arch curve generated by using the teeth outside the candidate teeth as truncated teeth may have excessive errors.
The tooth position number of a particular candidate tooth may be determined by the segment and the type of tooth. The type of tooth may refer to whether the tooth is permanent or deciduous. For example, for the left segment in the permanent tooth, the second position of the tooth position number of the candidate tooth may include 5 and 6; for the right segment in the permanent tooth, the second position of the tooth position number of the candidate tooth may include 6 and 7; for the left segment in the deciduous tooth, the second position of the tooth position number of the candidate tooth may include 4 and 5; for the right segment in the deciduous tooth, the second bit of the tooth position number of the candidate tooth may include 4 and 5. In other examples, the number of candidate teeth and the particular tooth position number may be determined as desired.
S72: it is determined whether the candidate tooth with the highest priority in the candidate tooth set is missing.
In general, the greater the number of the second digit of the tooth position number of the candidate tooth, the higher the priority.
If not, jumping to S74; if not, the process goes to S73.
S73: the candidate tooth with the highest priority is taken as the truncated tooth.
Ending the flow.
S74: the candidate teeth with the highest priority are removed from the candidate teeth set.
S75: it is determined whether the candidate set of teeth is empty.
If the candidate tooth set is not empty, jumping to S72; if the candidate tooth set is empty, it means that a suitable truncated tooth cannot be found from the candidate tooth set, and the process is ended.
A dental arch generally has one truncated tooth in each of its corresponding left and right segments, and optionally, failure of the dental arch to generate is indicated as long as one segment fails to find a suitable truncated tooth from the candidate set of teeth.
A specific procedure for determining the truncated teeth of the arch curve of the permanent dental upper jaw is illustrated. Judging whether the tooth number 16 is missing or not in the upper left section, if not, taking the tooth number 16 as a truncated tooth, if not, judging whether the tooth number 15 is missing, if not, taking the tooth number 15 as the truncated tooth, and if missing, prompting that the dental arch curve generation fails; for the upper right segment, judging whether the 27 th tooth is missing, if not, taking the 27 th tooth as a truncated tooth, if missing, judging whether the 26 th tooth is missing, if not, taking the 26 th tooth as a truncated tooth, and if missing, prompting that the dental arch curve generation fails.
In other embodiments, the teeth present on the target jaw may be identified from the oral scan data, and the tooth that is furthest from the central incisors, i.e., the tooth with the largest second position in the tooth number, is selected from the teeth present in the two sections of the target jaw, as the truncated tooth, where the distance generally refers to the distance along the arch curve.
S8: the dental arch curve is truncated according to the mesh vertices of the truncated teeth.
One dental arch curve generally corresponds to two truncated teeth, and for each truncated tooth, one end point of the dental arch curve can be determined according to the grid vertex of the truncated tooth, so that the dental arch curve is truncated.
As shown in fig. 7, in an embodiment of the present application, S8 may specifically include the following portions.
S81: the closest point of the arch curve to the truncated projection point is calculated as the first closest point.
The truncated projection point is a projection point of a center point of the truncated tooth on the dental arch plane, and the first closest point is located on the dental arch line and is one closest to the truncated projection point among points on the dental arch line.
S82: a tangent to the dental arch curve at a first closest point is obtained.
S83: one mesh vertex which is positioned on the side of the truncated tooth far from the central incisor and has the largest projection distance is selected as the target vertex.
The long axis of the truncated tooth may be used to divide the truncated tooth into two sides to determine which mesh vertices on the surface of the truncated tooth belong to the side remote from the central incisors. The mesh vertices are not necessarily in the plane of the dental arch. The projection distance is the distance between the mesh vertex and the projection point of the first closest point on the same projection object. Projection objects are used here to describe the course of a tooth in the approximate dental arch direction, and can be set as desired. For example, the projection object may be a mesial-distal direction of the truncated tooth, the mesial-distal direction may be indicated by a line connecting a mesial midpoint, which may be a midpoint of an intersection of a mesial surface of the truncated tooth and an arch plane, and a distal midpoint, which may be a midpoint of an intersection of a mesial surface of the truncated tooth and an arch plane. Or the projection object may be a tangent to the dental arch line at a first closest point, the tangent lying in the dental arch plane and being tangent to the dental arch line at the first closest point.
In one embodiment of the application, after the target vertex is determined, the dental arch curve may be updated with the target vertex. Specifically, the target vertex can be projected onto the dental arch plane to obtain a target projection point, then the target projection point is added into the fitting point set, and then curve fitting is performed again by using the updated fitting point set, namely curve fitting is performed again by using a plurality of projection characteristic points and the target projection point, so that an updated dental arch curve is obtained.
S84: the dental arch curve is truncated according to the target vertex.
Specifically, the closest point of the arch curve to the target vertex may be calculated as the second closest point, and then the arch curve is truncated using the second closest point, i.e., the second closest point is set as the end point of the arch curve. The second closest point is located on the dental arch curve and is the closest one to the target apex among the points on the dental arch curve.
The second closest point obtained in the embodiment is generally very close to the edge of the gum, so that the dental arch curve is cut off, the endpoints of the generated dental arch curve can accurately divide the gum and the teeth, a user can intuitively observe the position of the dental socket, the relationship between the dental arch curve and the dental socket is judged, and the dental arch curve can be conveniently adjusted in the subsequent correction process.
For example, still referring to the example of fig. 4, the initial fit results in a dental arch curve as shown in fig. 8, and after truncation, the actual dental arch curve is shown in fig. 9.
Alternatively, the oral model and the arch curve acquired from the oral scan data may be displayed in a first window of the display window, and the arch plane and the arch curve may be displayed in a second window of the display window. Specifically, the dental arch plane and the dental arch curve in the dental arch plane can be displayed in the second window, and meanwhile, the projection of the gingival margin on the dental arch plane is displayed, namely, the gingival margin and the dental arch curve are projected on the same plane, so that a user can intuitively observe the position of the dental socket and judge the relationship between the dental arch curve and the dental socket, and the dental arch plane is favorable for judging whether the dental arch curve needs to be manually adjusted and determining the adjustment direction. An example of a display window for displaying a dental arch curve and an oral model is shown in fig. 10, in which a window of a main body portion is a first window for displaying the oral model and the dental arch curve therein, and a window of a lower right corner is a second window for displaying a dental arch plane and the dental arch curve therein. The second window is suspended over the first window and has a degree of transparency for viewing by a user. The dental archwire in the first window and the second window is updated synchronously.
In one embodiment, the arch curve may be updated in response to a position adjustment instruction within a display window (including a first window range and a second window range).
In an embodiment, only in response to the position adjustment instruction within the range of the second window, the dental arch curve is updated, so that the user can adjust the dental arch curve only in the second window displayed in two dimensions, the user operation can be facilitated, and the problem that errors are easily deviated due to the fact that the dental arch curve is adjusted on the first window displayed in three dimensions is avoided. And the dental arch curves in the first window and the second window are synchronously updated, so that a user can observe the dental arch curves from three-dimensional and two-dimensional angles at the same time, and the final adjusted dental arch curves can be more accurate.
Considering the difficulty of the three-dimensional interface adjustment curve, in one other embodiment, the identity of the user is identified, whether to respond to the position adjustment instruction in the first window range is determined according to the experience or operation examination result of the user, the dental arch curve is updated, if the experience or operation examination result of the user exceeds the threshold value, the limit can be released, the position adjustment instruction in the first window range is responded (for example, the position adjustment instruction in the second window range is responded, the position adjustment instruction in the first window range is responded, and if the experience or operation examination result of the user does not exceed the threshold value, the position adjustment instruction in the second window range is responded, and the position adjustment instruction in the first window range is not responded.
In addition, the user may adjust the projected feature points to adjust the arch curve. Specifically, a position adjustment instruction for the projected feature points, which is generally obtained by a user's manipulation of the displayed arch curve, may be received. For example, the user may perform a drag or scribing operation on an interface (for example, the second window) displaying the dental arch curve, and the identified operation track may be used as a position adjustment instruction, specifically may include a start point coordinate, and may further include at least one of an end point coordinate and a displacement amount. The start point coordinates are generally used to indicate an object of the position adjustment instruction, and for example, one projection feature point closest to the start point coordinates may be selected as the object of the position adjustment instruction, and may be referred to as a target projection feature point.
