Abstract:
Method and system for managing multiple impressions of a patient's jaw for an orthodontic treatment is provided. The method includes scanning at least a first impression and a second impression of same jaw for the orthodontic treatment; determining if the first jaw impression and the second jaw impression have distortion in different areas; selecting the first jaw impression or the second jaw impression as a base impression; and replacing a distorted tooth data from the base impression with data for the same tooth from a non-base impression. The method also includes scanning at least a first jaw impression for the orthodontic treatment; scanning a bite impression for the orthodontic treatment; matching the scanned first jaw impression with the scanned bite impression; comparing bite information with a tooth occlusal surface; and determining if reconstruction is to be performed on the tooth occlusal surface.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for combining digital data from at least first and second scanned impressions of a jaw of a patient to form a combined digital jaw impression of the jaw for use in a customized dental treatment of the patient, the method comprising:\n receiving a first scanned impression of one jaw of the patient, the first scanned impression having distorted digital tooth data for a first tooth of the patient; receiving a second scanned impression of the one jaw of the patient, the second scanned impression having non-distorted digital tooth data for the first tooth of the patient, wherein the first scanned impression and the second scanned impression are scanned impressions of the same jaw of the patient; and creating a combined digital jaw impression by replacing the distorted digital tooth data for the first tooth of the first scanned impression with the non-distorted digital tooth data for the first tooth from the second scanned impression.
