    Abstract: A method for assessing the shape of an orthodontic aligner. Acquisition of at least one analysis image at least partially representing the aligner in a service position in which it is worn by a patient. Analysis of the analysis image by means of a deep learning device, trained by means of a learning base, so as to determine a value. For at least one tooth attribute of an analysis tooth zone representing, at least partially, a tooth on the analysis image, the tooth attribute relating to a separation between the tooth represented by the analysis tooth zone, and the aligner represented on the analysis image. For an image attribute of the analysis image, the image attribute relating to a separation between at least one tooth represented on the analysis image, and the aligner represented on the analysis image.

    Abstract: A method of determining an optimal switchover moment for a hybrid orthodontic treatment of teeth. Creation of a digital three-dimensional model of at least part of a dental arch. Deformation of the initial reference model until the tooth models are in a target position. Acquisition of at least one two-dimensional image of the teeth. Deformation of the initial reference model until the at least one updated image corresponds to the initial reference model. Determination, from the updated reference model and from said target reference model, of a plurality of remaining-treatments for moving the teeth from their position represented in the updated reference model into their position represented in the target reference model. Determination of a profile including at least one value for an evaluation parameter. Evaluation of each profile by an evaluation rule. Determination the profile of which is optimal for replacing an orthodontic appliance with an aligner.

    Abstract: Method for acquiring a model of a dental arch of a user (U), said method comprising the following steps: a) at an update time, extra-oral acquisition, with a portable scanner (12), by the user, of a digital three-dimensional model (8) of said arch, and optionally division of the model of the arch so as to isolate one portion (30) of the model of the arch, so as to obtain an “updated model”, the updated model thus possibly being the acquired model or the portion of the acquired model isolated by division, the object represented by the updated model being called the “updated object”.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a system for adapting an orthodontic apparatus intended for a patient, said system comprising the following steps: -a) determining, at a parameterisation time, by a first dental healthcare professional and specifically for said patient, conditions for communicating updated information relating to the configuration of the patient's dentition; -b) acquiring, at an updated time subsequent to the parameterisation time, by means of an acquisition device and by the patient or an acquaintance of the patient, an extraoral depiction of at least one portion of the patient's dental arches, referred to as an “updated depiction”, said updated depiction consisting of a set of images and/or of a three-dimensional digital model; -c) analysing said updated depiction, so as to determine information regarding said dentition configuration at the updated time, or “updated information”, the updated information consisting of a set of information elements, each expressing a status for a relevant treatment aim in light of the updated depiction; -d) communicating the updated information to at least one second dental healthcare professional under the conditions determined in step a); -e) adapting said orthodontic apparatus on the basis of the updated information communicated in step d).

    Abstract: A method for evaluating, by computer, at an “updated” time, the conformity of an orthodontic aligner with a dental arch of a patient, referred to as the “support arch.” The method includes the following successive steps: A) producing a digital three-dimensional model of the support arch in its configuration at the updated time, or an “updated reference model”, and determining from the updated reference model, a support surface for the aligner; B) deforming the support surface on the basis of the geometry of the aligner in order to obtain a deformed support surface; C) comparing an external surface of the aligner with the deformed support surface, then determining, on the basis of the comparison, at least one score for the conformity of the aligner with the support arch.
