Patent attributes
A method and a system for determining an orthodontic treatment plan are provided. The method comprises: acquiring a 3D point cloud representative of surfaces of a given pair of adjacent teeth of a subject; obtaining an indication of a current orthodontic treatment plan for a subject including data of respective tooth trajectories the given pair of adjacent teeth; determining an occurrence of a collision between the given pair of adjacent teeth, the determining including determining if, along the given segment, a first tooth of the given pair of adjacent teeth moves at least one of translationally and rotationally relative to a second tooth of the given pair of adjacent teeth; determining a respective overlap region between the given pair of adjacent teeth caused by the collision; and causing display of respective overlap regions between the adjacent teeth over an indication of the implementation of the current orthodontic treatment plan.
