METHOD AND DEVICE FOR DIGITAL SCAN BODY ALIGNMENT

Abstract:

A system for intraoral scanning comprises a scanner to generate image data of a dental site and a computing device. The computing device receives the image data of the dental site, the image data comprising a representation of the dental site and a representation of a reference object at the dental site. The computing device selects library data for the reference object from library data for a plurality of reference objects in a library. The computing device aligns the library data for the reference object with the image data.
