Abstract
Systems and methods for scoring a post-treatment tooth position of a patient's teeth. Raw features of the patient's teeth may be determined from a 3D model of the patient's teeth. Engineered features may be created based on the raw features, which may be applied to a classifier trained to provide a post-treatment tooth position score for the patient's teeth. The post-treatment tooth position score may include a label for each tooth and an associated tooth position score and may be generated as output.
