    Abstract: A 3D scanner system includes a scanning device capable of recording first and second data sets of a surface of an object when operating in a first configuration and a second configuration, respectively. A measurement unit is configured for measuring a distance from the scanning device to the surface. A control controls an operation of the scanning device based on the distance measured by the measurement unit, where the scanning device operates in the first configuration when the measured distance is within a first range of distances from the surface and the scanning device operates in the second configuration when the measured distance is within a second range of distances; and a data processor is configured to combine one or more first data sets and one or more second data sets to create a combined virtual 3D model of the object surface.

    Abstract: A method for validating a preparation of at least one tooth in a prepared set of teeth for determining whether the prepared tooth is capable of accepting a dental restoration includes obtaining a virtual dental preparation guide configured for validating the preparation of the at least one tooth; obtaining a digital 3D representation of the prepared set of teeth; visualizing the virtual dental preparation guide together with the digital 3D representation of the prepared set of teeth; and validating from the visualization of the virtual dental preparation guide together with the digital 3D representation of the prepared set of teeth whether the prepared at least one tooth is shaped such that it can accept the dental restoration.

    Abstract: A method of aligning two 3D digital representations of at least a part of each of the upper and lower jaw of a patient, the method including segmenting the 3D digital representations to determine the shape and position of each of the patient's teeth in each of the 3D digital representations; and using a set of known anatomical concepts to constrain the fit of the two 3D digital representations to get a preliminary fit.

    Abstract: A method for visualising a 3D dental restoration on a 2D image of the mouth of a patient includes obtaining a 3D dental model of at least a part of the patient's oral cavity, designing the 3D dental restoration, obtaining the 2D image of the mouth of the patient, estimating a virtual camera including at least one virtual camera property corresponding to at least one physical camera property of the physical camera used to obtain the 2D image, viewing the 3D dental restoration using the virtual camera, determining the visible area of the 3D dental restoration, which is not overlapped by surrounding anatomic features when viewed with the virtual camera, imaging the visible area of the 3D dental restoration with the 2D image. This advantageously provides an image which with high accuracy gives the dentist and the patient a visual presentation of the final result of a dental treatment.

    Abstract: A method for designing a virtual abutment for manufacturing an abutment part of a dental restoration for a patient, the dental restoration further including a crown configured for being seated at the abutment, wherein the method includes loading a virtual anatomy surface into an electronic data processing device, the virtual anatomy surface expressing a target shape of the crown portion of the dental restoration; loading an obtained virtual abutment including a virtual abutment finish line into the electronic data processing device; and modifying the obtained virtual abutment by executing one or more computer implemented algorithms using the electronic data processing device, where the algorithms are configured to adapt the shape of the obtained virtual abutment such that the virtual abutment finish line of the modified virtual abutment is aligned with the virtual anatomy surface.

    Abstract: A method for digitally designing a denture for a patient, where the denture includes a plurality of denture teeth, where designing the denture includes transforming the denture, and where the denture teeth are grouped in at least two blocks where each block includes at least two denture teeth. The method includes obtaining a 3D scan of the upper jaw and lower jaw of the patient; obtaining a digital 3D arrangement of the denture teeth, where the denture teeth are pre-set in occlusion; digitally arranging the 3D scan of the upper jaw and lower jaw relative to the 3D arrangement of the denture teeth; and digitally transforming at least one denture tooth based on input from a user; where at least one design rule is enforced that affect one or more, but not all of the blocks, when the at least one denture tooth is transformed.
