Abstract
A method for displaying teeth of a patient, generates a three-dimensional model of the patient's teeth and displays the generated three-dimensional model. A displayed image shows a cross-sectional view of the teeth according to the position of a cutting plane extending through the three-dimensional model. The relative position of the cutting plane is adjustable according to an operator instruction. The orientation of the displayed cross-sectional view is determined by the position of the cutting plane.
