Abstract
A method, system and computer readable storage media for determining articulator parameters. A dentist may use a mobile device such as a smart phone to quickly and inexpensively visualize a 3D model of a patient's face and jaw, with a depth sensor being used to detect depth information. Articulator parameters may then be obtained to be used for treatment planning based on an analysis of the correct functioning of the patient's teeth.
