Abstract
An intraoral scanning system comprises an intraoral scanner and a computing device. The intraoral scanner is to configured to generate intraoral scan data of a bite of a patient. The computing device is configured to receive the intraoral scan data of the bite of the patient during scanning of the bite of the patient, wherein each datum of the intraoral scan data shows a portion of a lower dental arch and a portion of an upper dental arch of the patient. The computing device determines a difference in a relative position of the lower dental arch to the upper dental arch between at least a first datum of the intraoral scan data and a second datum of the intraoral scan data and performs a remedial action responsive to determining that the difference in the relative position of the lower dental arch to the upper dental arch exceeds a difference threshold.
