Classification: CPC A  G | IPC A  G

Claim 0:
1. A computer-implemented method for determining an orthodontic treatment for a patient the method comprising:
receiving a two-dimensional (2D) lateral projection of a skull of the patient without obtaining and further processing additional 3D scans, the 2D lateral projection being representative of a single position of a mandibular portion relative to a cranium portion of the skull;
conducting, based on the 2D lateral projection, a cephalometric analysis of the skull of the patient;
identifying, via the cephalometric analysis, a first pair of anatomical reference points for defining a first reference line, the first pair of anatomical reference points including a first point on the mandibular portion and a second point on the cranium portion of the skull of the patient;
identifying, via the cephalometric analysis, a second pair of anatomical reference points for defining a second reference line, the second pair of anatomical reference points including a third and fourth points on the cranium portion of the skull;
the second reference line intersecting with the first reference line;
generating, based on the first pair of anatomical reference points, the first reference line;
generating, based on the second pair of anatomical reference points, the second reference line;
determining, based on an intersection of the first reference line and the second reference line, a rotation center for a patient's mandible;
determining, based on the rotation center of the patient's mandible, the orthodontic treatment for the patient.
