Systems and methods for prioritization of three dimensional dental elements. The systems and methods may include displaying a perspective of a 3D digital model such that a portion of a second object is behind a first object, where the first object has a higher priority than the second object. The portion of the second object behind the first object may not be viewable through the first object and a reference point on the portion of the second object may not be selectable. The priority may be changed such that the second object has a higher priority than the first object, where once the priority is changed, that the portion of the second object behind the first object may be viewable through the first object and the reference point on the second object is selectable by the user.

Prioritization of three dimensional dental elements

The present disclosure includes methods, systems, and devices for prioritization of three dimensional dental elements. One method for prioritizing three dimensional dental elements includes receiving a virtual initial dental data set (IDDS) of teeth having spatial information regarding the positions of a number of teeth in the virtual IDDS with respect to each other for presentation of the teeth in a virtual three dimensional space to be viewed on a user interface, setting prioritization values of a number of elements of one or more of the number of teeth, and prioritizing the number of elements to be selected by a user based upon their prioritization values.
