The cephalometric radiography, dental model, intra-oral and extra-oral photos are essential traditional baseline data as orthodontic diagnostic tool to develop a comprehensive treatment plan. With the advent of the digital era, 3D digital dental model will gradually replace the traditional bulky plaster casts, and become an inevitable trend in the future. The purpose of this review article was to discuss about: (1) Digital dental models. (2) Pre-treatment and post-treatment stability of palatal rugae. (3) Via serial 3D digital dental model superimposition registered on palatal rugae and palatal vault, it is feasible to analysis the direction and magnitude of 3D individual …

Purpose: The purposes of this study was to evaluate the registration error and its reproducibility for implementation of the laser-scanned dental model images onto the CBCT scan data by using the manual 3D superimposition. Materials and methods: Twelve arches out of 8 consecutive patients were enrolled in this study. Both CBCT and dental impression were taken as orthodontic records and the dental casts were then laser-scanned into dental model images with STL file format. In SimPlant OMS software, we register the dental model images onto CBCT teeth images with manual 3D superimposition technique. Afterwards, validation was performed in 3dMDvultus and …

Purpose: the purpose of this study is to evaluate mandible bone density and gender difference through three-dimensional images. The Images was captured by cone-beam computer tomography (CBCT) and transfer into DICOM format for further examination. Material and method: CBCT images were obtained from 36 males and 34 females aged from 18 to 40 years. Mandible bone density was measured in 4 sites bilaterally. Inter-gender and intra-class comparison were made to distinguish the difference of acquired data. Result: Bone density measurement of females showed greater bone density at almost all sites but only showing significant difference in left retromolar area (p=0.0067). …
