Claim 0:
1. A shade matching server device comprising:
one or more processors;
one or more communications interfaces;
memory containing instructions executable by the one or more processors with the one or more communications interfaces whereby the server device is operable to:
receive a stereo lithic file and a shade measurement for a design of a restoration for a target patient from a requesting computing device:
receive a geographic area designation from the requesting computing device;
receive inventory information from a plurality of supplying computing devices;
generate one or more material recommendations for the restoration for the target patient based on inventory information from a plurality of supplying computing devices that match the geographic area designation, wherein the material recommendations comprise recommendations for computer aided design and computer aided manufacturing blocks of different materials;
receive stereo lithic files and shade measurements for restorations for other patients from supplying computing devices;
invoke a machine learning process with the stereo lithic file and shade measurement for the restoration for the target patient;
generate one or more characterization recommendations for the restoration for the target patient based on machine learning and statistical models; and
send the one or more material recommendations and the one or more characterization recommendations for the restoration for the target patient to the requesting computing device, wherein the one or more characterization recommendations includes one or more staining recommendations and wherein the one or more characterization recommendations include a custom map identifying spatial information for aligning the one or more staining recommendations to the restoration for the target patient after the restoration has been milled from the one or more material recommendations.
