Abstract
A first computing device receives a command to associate the first computing device with an intraoral scanner, the command comprising an identifier. The first computing device wirelessly connects with a second computing device, and sends the identifier to the second computing device. The second computing device wirelessly connects to the intraoral scanner and associates the first computing device with the intraoral scanner. Subsequently, intraoral scan data generated by the first intraoral scanner is sent to the second computing device, the intraoral scan data is processed by the second computing device to generate a three-dimensional surface of a dental site, the three-dimensional surface or a view of the three-dimensional surface of the dental site is sent to the first computing device, and the three-dimensional surface or the view of the three-dimensional surface of the dental site is displayed by the first computing device.
