Abstract
A method for capturing digital data for fabricating a dental splint involves displaying a GUI on a display of a smartphone that provides an alignment feature for a user to align a camera of the smartphone to a first position that captures teeth of a person, receiving digital video of the teeth, overlaying the alignment feature on the digital video of the teeth on the display, moving the alignment feature on the screen in a manner that causes the user to move the smartphone relative to the teeth to maintain alignment with the alignment feature, capturing digital image information of the teeth as the alignment feature is moved, the captured digital image information including depth information, and transmitting the captured digital image information, including the depth information, from the smartphone for use in fabricating a dental splint.
