DENTAL MODELS CREATED BY INTRAORAL SCANNING AND 3D PRINTING

Creating protective appliances for preventing dental injury during endotracheal intubation using intraoral scanning and 3D printing: a technical note

Digital dentistry has influenced many dental procedures, such as three-dimensional (3D) diagnosis and treatment planning, surgical splints, and prosthetic treatments. Patient-specific protective appliances (PSPAs) prevent dental injury during endotracheal intubation. However, the required laboratory work takes time, and there is the possibility of tooth extraction while obtaining the dental imp...

3D Scanning, Imaging, and Printing in Orthodontics

CopyMe3D: Scanning and Printing Persons in 3D

In this paper, we describe a novel approach to create 3D miniatures of persons using a Kinect sensor and a 3D color printer. To achieve this, we acquire color and depth images while the person is rotating on a swivel chair. We represent the model with a signed distance function which is updated and visualized as the images are captured for immediate feedback. Our approach automatically fills sm...

Accuracy of 3D Building Models Created Using Terrestrial and Airborne Laser Scanning Data, (7003)

3D Multicamera Dental Cast Scanning System

The fundamental factors in the diagnosis in the orthodontic treatment are the spacing condition, tooth size, arch form and its dimensions. Plaster model analysis is a time-consuming procedure. Dividers, calipers, and Boley gauges have provided the standart of measurement against which newer methods have been evaluated [1]. Various scanning techniques, including laser scans, structured light, de...
