Abstract
Systems and methods for monitoring a subject's teeth during orthodontic treatment. An input 2D image of the subject's current teeth including a wide angle occlusal view of the subject's upper and/or lower jaw at a current treatment stage can be received. Virtual camera parameters corresponding to the input 2D image can be determined. A rendered 2D image of the subject's teeth can be generated from a 3D model of the subject's upper and/or lower jaw at a planned treatment stage with the virtual camera parameters. Differences between the subject's teeth from the input 2D image and the rendered 2D image using tooth centers can be determined. An indicator indicating the differences can be output.
