Abstract
A method for generating a virtual model of an object in a patient's anatomy. The method employs a surface scan of an anatomical region of the patient's oral cavity and a volumetric density scan of the anatomical region. The method includes receiving a first dataset of labeled surface scan segments, receiving a second dataset of labeled volumetric density scan segments, cross-mounting in a coordinate system, labeled surface scan segments from the first dataset to labeled volumetric density scan segments from the second dataset, receiving identification of the targeted extraction object, identifying the 3D volumetric density model and the 3D surface model associated with the volumetric density scan segment label, and generating a third dataset comprising and 3D model of a socket, a 3D model of portions of a tooth crown, a 3D model of portions of a target extraction tooth, and/or a 3D model of the extraction contour.
