Specific meanings of the above terms in the embodiments of the invention will be understood to those of ordinary skill in the art in specific cases.
As shown in fig. 1 to 6, a digital dental crown design method according to an embodiment of the present invention includes:
step S100: and acquiring the upper and lower jaw occlusion model 2 and a standard dental crown model at the tooth missing position.
Specifically, the maxillomandibular occlusion model 2 can be acquired by a wireless three-dimensional digital scanning instrument. Generally, in a tooth occlusion state, a conventional intraoral scanning instrument cannot enter an oral cavity for scanning, so that complete data cannot be directly obtained, in order to obtain a complete three-dimensional model of the upper and lower jaws of a patient in the occlusion state, based on CBCT (Cone beam Computer Tomograph, oral cavity and maxillofacial Cone beam CT) data shot in the occlusion state, the complete upper jaw three-dimensional model 21 and the lower jaw three-dimensional model 22 which are scanned independently can be respectively registered, that is, the original independent upper jaw three-dimensional model 21 and the lower jaw three-dimensional model 22 are matched together according to an occlusion relationship through the CBCT data, so that the upper and lower jaw occlusion model 2 is obtained.
The standard crown model at the edentulous site may select a three-dimensional model corresponding to the crown at the respective edentulous site directly from a pre-stored database of standard crowns. Different teeth have different functions and different forms, and corresponding standard dental crown models can be obtained by inducing and integrating the forms of the teeth at different positions, and then a database is established. The standard dental crown database stores three-dimensional models of different teeth, and provides a foundation for dental prosthesis.
Step S200: as shown in fig. 2, a standard crown model is placed in the corresponding edentulous portion of the maxillo-mandibular occlusion model 2 to obtain a designed crown model 1.
Specifically, based on the upper and lower jaw occlusion model 2, the standard dental crown model is dragged and dropped to a proper position in a three-dimensional space, and the basic size and shape of the standard dental crown model are adjusted through a control, for example, the standard dental crown model can be respectively scaled in three directions of length, width and height, the size of the standard dental crown model is adjusted to adapt to different patients, the standard dental crown model is optimally just contacted with the adjacent teeth 3 (normal teeth in the upper and lower jaw occlusion model 2), gaps or interference can also be properly existed, and further trimming processing is performed subsequently, wherein the coarse adjustment is mainly performed.
Step S300: as shown in fig. 2, 3 and 4, the expansion process is performed on all the design crown models 1, and each of the design crown models 1 is trimmed in turn to remove the expansion overlapping portion of the design crown model 1 with other design crown models which are not subjected to the trimming process.
Specifically, when a plurality of crown designs are performed simultaneously, as shown in fig. 2, the first designed crown model 11, the second designed crown model 12 and the third designed crown model 13 are all located at the tooth lacking position, and if the position and size of these designed crown models 1 are just kept in contact during the design, in the actual installation process of the crown, due to the influence of various factors such as manufacturing errors or implant implantation errors, problems such as difficult installation (e.g., jamming during installation) may occur, and further, a doctor is required to manually adjust the crown (e.g., grinding off the contact partial region), thereby increasing the waiting time of a patient and the workload of the doctor. Therefore, a certain gap is reserved between the dental crowns during design, and the subsequent actual dental crowns can be conveniently installed.
To achieve this, each design crown model 1 (shown by a solid line in fig. 2) is expanded, the expanded model is shown by a dotted line in fig. 2, and the distance between the expanded model and the design crown model 1 can be set by parameters, typically around 0.4mm, to secure a crown setting gap.
Then, Boolean subtraction operation is carried out on each designed dental crown model 1 and other models which are not subjected to trimming operation and are expanded to trim the current designed dental crown model 1. More specifically, when the trimming order is different for a plurality of designed crown models 1, different trimmed crown models are obtained.
As shown in fig. 3, the trimming sequence is: first designed crown model 11 → second designed crown model 12 → third designed crown model 13. Firstly, the first designed dental crown model 11 is respectively subjected to Boolean reduction operation with the expanded models of the second designed dental crown model 12 and the third designed dental crown model 13, the first designed dental crown model 11 is trimmed, and the part of the first designed dental crown model 11, which is overlapped by the expanded model of the second designed dental crown model 12 on the right side, is removed, and the part of the first designed dental crown model 11, which is overlapped by the expanded model of the third designed dental crown model 13 on the upper side, is also removed. After the first designed crown model 11 is trimmed by boolean operations, a set gap is ensured between the first designed crown model 11 and the second designed crown model 12 and the third designed crown model 13.
The same trimming operation is then performed on the second designed crown model 12, skipped because the boolean operation has already been performed between the expanded models of the first and second designed crown models 11, 12. The second designed crown model 12 is then trimmed to leave a gap between the expanded models of the second and third designed crown models 12, 13 by performing a boolean operation. As can be seen in FIG. 3, the second designed crown model 12 is not in contact with the expanded model of the third designed crown model 13 and therefore the second designed crown model 12 is unchanged after the Boolean operation.
The same trimming operation is finally performed on the third designed crown model 13, which is skipped since the third designed crown model 13 has already been boolean operated with the first and second designed crown models 11, 12. The resulting first designed crown model 11 is trimmed of the superior and right portions while the shapes of the second designed crown model 12 and the third designed crown model 13 remain unchanged.
In addition, other trimming sequences may be used, as shown in fig. 4, the trimming sequence is: second designed crown model 12 → first designed crown model 11 → third designed crown model 13. First, the second designed crown model 12 is subjected to a boolean subtraction operation with the expanded models of the first designed crown model 11 and the third designed crown model 13, respectively, and the second designed crown model 12 is trimmed to remove a portion of the second designed crown model 12 where the left portion overlaps the expanded model of the first designed crown model 11. Since the second design crown model 12 is not in contact with the expanded model of the third design crown model 13, no further trimming of the second design crown model 12 is required.
The same trimming operation is then performed on the first designed crown model 11, skipped because a boolean operation has already been performed between the expanded models of the first and second designed crown models 11, 12. Next, boolean operation is performed on the expanded models of the first designed crown model 11 and the third designed crown model 13 to trim the first designed crown model 11, and a portion of the first designed crown model 11 where the upper portion coincides with the expanded model of the third designed crown model 13 is removed, leaving a gap therebetween.
The same trimming operation is finally performed on the third designed crown model 13, which is skipped since the third designed crown model 13 has already been boolean operated with the first and second designed crown models 11, 12. The resulting first design crown model 11 is trimmed of the upper side portion, the second design crown model 12 is trimmed of the left side portion, and the shape of the third design crown model 13 remains unchanged.
When other pruning sequences are adopted, the processing method is similar to the above method, and the description is omitted here. In summary, a boolean subtraction operation is performed between each designed crown model 1 and the remaining crowns that have not undergone the boolean operation with respect to the designed crown model 1 to trim the designed crown model 1 so that a certain gap exists between the designed crown model and other designed crown models. The designer can select an appropriate trimming sequence according to actual requirements. In a specific embodiment, the designed crown model 1 may be selected to be trimmed first with the largest contact surface with other designed crown models.
Step S400: and (3) performing expansion treatment on the upper and lower jaw occlusion models 2, and trimming the designed dental crown model 1 to remove the expansion overlapped part of the designed dental crown model 1 and the adjacent tooth 3.
Specifically, the expansion processing method similar to step S300 may be adopted to perform the expansion processing on the upper and lower jaw occlusion models 2 to generate the expansion model of the adjacent tooth 3 corresponding to the designed dental crown model 1, and then perform the boolean reduction operation on the expansion models of the designed dental crown model 1 and the adjacent tooth 3 to remove the expansion overlapping portion with the adjacent tooth 3 in the designed dental crown model 1.
The digital dental crown design method provided by the embodiment is based on the upper and lower jaw occlusion models 2 and the existing standard dental crown three-dimensional model, a single or a plurality of designed dental crown models 1 are generated, the designed dental crown models 1 are properly trimmed, certain gaps are reserved between the designed dental crown models 1 and other designed dental crown models 1 around the designed dental crown models or normal adjacent teeth 3, the problems of difficult installation, blocking and the like caused by factors such as manufacturing errors or implant implantation errors in the actual installation process of the dental crowns are avoided, the subsequent installation is convenient, and the workload of manual grinding and adjustment of the dental crowns of doctors is reduced. The dental crown three-dimensional model designed by the digital dental crown design method can be installed and worn for a patient after being processed and manufactured by modes such as CAM or 3D printing, and the like, can generally directly meet actual requirements or only needs a small amount of fine adjustment, greatly improves the working efficiency of dentists, and reduces the waiting time of the patient.
Further, as shown in fig. 5, step S300 further includes:
step S310: distance field data was generated for all designed crown models 1. Let the pixel spacing of the distance field be space.
Wherein, step S310 further includes:
step S311: an outer bounding box (i.e. the smallest cube containing the designed crown model 1) is generated for each designed crown model 1, and six faces of the outer bounding box are moved outwards by a first preset distance to obtain a first cubic region 4 corresponding to each designed crown model 1. In particular, the first predetermined distance is greater than a predetermined expansion gap value, which in one particular embodiment may be gap + space 2, where gap is the predetermined expansion gap value, i.e., the predetermined gap between the design crown model 1 and the surrounding teeth, to ensure that the expanded model of the design crown model 1 remains within the distance field.
Step S312: based on the first cubic region 4, a three-dimensional cubic grid is generated. Specifically, the grid line intersection represents one pixel, and the pixel interval is space, representing the sampling interval. The smaller the value of the sampling interval, the denser the sampling points. In a specific embodiment, the pixel spacing is set to 0.3 mm.
Step S313: traversing each grid point a in the three-dimensional cubic grid, calculating the shortest distance value d between the grid point a and the designed dental crown model 1, and judging whether the grid point a is inside or outside the designed dental crown model 1. When the grid point a is outside the designed dental crown model, defining the distance value d as a positive value; when the grid point a is in the interior of the designed dental crown model, defining the distance value d as a negative value; when the grid point a is located on the surface of the designed crown model, the distance value d is defined to be 0.
Step S314: and taking the distance value d as a scalar of the grid point a to obtain three-dimensional cubic grid data with the scalar, namely the distance field data of the designed dental crown model 1.
Step S320: based on an isosurface generation algorithm, an expansion isosurface 5 is extracted from the distance field data, and the distance value d of the expansion isosurface 5 to the designed dental crown model 1 is a preset expansion gap value gap. Specifically, the iso-surface generation algorithm may adopt a Marching Cubes algorithm, and the distance value from each sampling point on the expanded iso-surface 5 to the designed dental crown model 1 is the same.
By inputting the target gap size gap in the iso-surface extraction algorithm, i.e. extracting the iso-surface which is gap away from the designed dental crown model 1, the expanded designed dental crown model 1 is generated, and the model cannot generate self-intersection. If the designed dental crown model 1 is expanded by a method of directly expanding along the normal direction, self-intersection is easily generated at the recessed portion due to the surface roughness of the designed dental crown model 1, which may seriously affect the subsequent calculation and the final manufacturing. And the self-intersection condition can be well avoided by using the isosurface extraction algorithm.
Further, as shown in fig. 6, step S400 further includes:
step S410: respectively generating outer bounding boxes for designing the dental crown model 1, and respectively moving six faces of the outer bounding boxes outwards for a second preset distance to obtain a second cubic area 6 containing the designed dental crown model 1. In particular, the second predetermined distance may be selected as a practical matter, and in one particular embodiment is 1mm to ensure that the designed crown model 1 is inside the second cubic area 6, rather than against the margin.
Step S420: and trimming the upper and lower jaw occlusion model 2, and keeping the overlapped part of the upper and lower jaw occlusion model 2 and the second cubic area 6 to obtain an area adjacent tooth model 7. The maxillomandibular occlusion model 2 can be obtained by performing a boolean operation on the separated maxillomandibular three-dimensional model 21 and the mandible three-dimensional model 22.
Because the data volume of the upper and lower jaw occlusion model 2 is large, the number of triangular meshes is large, in order to improve the operation performance, the upper and lower jaw occlusion model 2 is trimmed by using the second cubic area 6, and the part of the upper and lower jaw occlusion model 2 which is not adjacent to the designed dental crown model 1 can be removed by adopting Boolean subtraction operation, so that a new model, namely an area adjacent tooth model 7 is obtained. As shown in fig. 6, the region adjacent tooth model 7 includes partial adjacent tooth models adjacent to the upper side, the left side and the right side of the designed crown model 1.
Step S430: the region adjacent tooth model 7 is subjected to expansion processing, and the design crown model 1 is trimmed to remove the expansion overlapping part of the design crown model 1 with the adjacent tooth 3.
Specifically, the regional adjacent tooth model 7 is expanded according to a preset expansion gap value, and the expansion gap value can be obtained by using an isosurface generation algorithm, so that the expanded regional adjacent tooth model 7 (the part shown by the dotted line in the second cube region 6) is obtained. And carrying out Boolean subtraction on the designed dental crown model 1 and the expanded region adjacent tooth model 7, cutting off the expansion superposition part of the designed dental crown model 1 and the adjacent tooth 3, and keeping the designed dental crown model 1 and the adjacent tooth 3 in a set gap.
By adopting the method for processing, the calculation amount of Boolean operation can be reduced, the calculation process is accelerated, and the design fluency is improved. It should be noted that, during the process of performing boolean operations on the three-dimensional model for trimming, due to the local surface unevenness of the model, some loose fragments of the designed dental crown model 1 may be generated after trimming, and the largest model needs to be extracted as a new designed dental crown model 1. For the convenience of calculation, the number of triangular faces of the model can be compared for judgment.
Further, after step S400, the method further includes:
step S500: and removing the high refraction edge and the sharp object generated in the Boolean operation.
The three-dimensional model of the crown after trimming by boolean operation may generate a highly refractive edge (the normal direction of the triangular patches on both sides of the edge is very different) and a sharp object (a single-point peak on the curved surface mesh), which needs to be deleted to repair the model.
The step S500 further includes:
step S510: and identifying a triangular surface patch and a pointed triangular surface patch where the high-degree refraction edge is positioned in the designed dental crown model, and marking.
Step S520: and deleting the triangular patch and the pointed triangular patch where the marked high refraction edge is positioned.
Step S530: the holes in the designed dental crown model 1 are repaired.
Specifically, the hole in the designed crown model 1 may be repaired by a three-dimensional model hole repairing method, such as a mesh-based repairing method, a volume expression-based repairing method, a curvature feature mesh-based repairing method, or a radial basis function-based repairing method, which are all the prior art and will not be described herein again.
Since new high refraction edges and spikes may be generated during the hole repairing operation, the steps S510 to S530 may be iterated multiple times to delete the new high refraction edges and spikes as much as possible (for example, the iteration number may be set to 5).
