Provided herein are systems and methods for determining if a 3D tooth model requires trimming or removal of incomplete or missing data (e.g., gingiva covering a portion of a tooth such as a molar). A patient's dentition may be scanned and/or segmented. During dentition segmentation, a determination can be made whether trimming portions of the 3D model is desirable. A recommendation can be made for 3D model trimming based on the determination.

Molar trimming prediction and validation using machine learning

Provided herein are systems and methods for determining if a 3D tooth model requires trimming or removal of incomplete or missing data (e.g., gingiva covering a portion of a tooth such as a molar). A patient's dentition may be scanned and/or segmented. Features of the patient's teeth can be determined, including a tooth center point of at least three of the patient's teeth. The features of the patient's teeth are used to access a parametric model. A trim plane normal vector is identified for a distal tooth. Trimming of the 3D tooth model is based on the trim plane normal vector.

Provided herein are systems and methods for determining if a 3D tooth model requires trimming or removal of incomplete or missing data (e.g., gingiva covering a portion of a tooth such as a molar). A patient's dentition may be scanned and/or segmented. Raw dental features, principal component analysis (PCA) features, and/or other features may be extracted and compared to those of other teeth, such as those obtained through automated machine learning systems. A classifier can identify and/or output probability that the 3D tooth model requires trimming. Trimming of the 3D tooth model can be implemented without human intervention.
