Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of oral medicine, and in particular to a method and device for orthognathic digital virtual occlusion matching. Background Art

[0002] The establishment of the final occlusion after orthognathic surgery is one of the key steps in orthognathic and orthodontic combined treatment. According to statistics, block surgery accounts for more than 45.8% of orthognathic surgery. The manual alignment of the final occlusion takes a long time, has poor accuracy, and is highly dependent on the doctor's experience. At present, the final occlusion alignment method is mainly clinically performed by manually cutting off the plaster model by model surgery, and then repositioning the bone blocks with hot melt adhesive to establish a new occlusal relationship. However, manual alignment has the defects of being time-consuming and labor-intensive, cumbersome, inaccurate positioning, large errors, and easy breakage of the model leading to loss of visual data. At the same time, there is a large gap in the alignment technology level and aesthetic concepts among doctors, and the training cycle of program doctors is long. Experienced doctors can quickly position and correct the bone blocks according to the characteristics of the deformity, but young doctors face more complex cases, such as cases with a large number of blocks. There is often no standard step process to refer to. The block alignment design guided by experience may cause patients to suffer unnecessary additional trauma or fail to obtain the best occlusion. At the same time, the scientificity and clinical feasibility of the final occlusion lack a unified quantitative standard, making it difficult to systematically define the efficacy. Summary of the invention

[0003] In view of the problems in the prior art, the present invention provides a method for orthognathic digital virtual occlusion matching, the method comprising:

[0004] Acquire a three-dimensional digital model of the patient's oral cavity, wherein the three-dimensional digital model of the oral cavity includes a jaw and a dentition;

[0005] Segmenting the jaws in the three-dimensional digital model of the oral cavity to form a segmentation model;

[0006] Calibrate reference position information on the segmentation model and determine an adjustment rule;

[0007] The jaw blocks in the segmented model are assembled until the adjustment rule is satisfied. Further, the reference price range of each sub-sample set is predicted in a distributed server environment.

[0008] Furthermore, the oral three-dimensional digital model is formed by aligning the radioactive scanning model and the intraoral optical scanning model.

[0009] Furthermore, the reference position information includes reference points, reference lines, and reference planes for defining the positions of the jaw and teeth in the segmentation model.

[0010] Furthermore, the adjustment rule is a number of reference items and their standard ranges set based on the reference position information.

[0011] Furthermore, the steps of aligning the divided jaws in the segmented model are as follows:

[0012] Establish anterior occlusion;

[0013] Align the mandibular dentition;

[0014] Establish posterior occlusion;

[0015] Correct maxillary dentition.

[0016] Furthermore, if the adjustment rule is not satisfied after executing the matching step, the matching step is repeated until the adjustment rule is satisfied.

[0017] Furthermore, the ABO-OGS score was performed on the completed occlusal model.

[0018] Furthermore, the ABO-OGS scoring items include alignment, marginal ridge height, buccolingual inclination, occlusal relationship, occlusal contact, overjet, and adjacent tooth contact relationship.

[0019] The present invention also provides a device for orthognathic digital virtual occlusion matching, the device comprising:

[0020] Processor; and

[0021] A memory arranged to store computer executable instructions which, when executed, cause the processor to perform the operations of the above-described method.

[0022] The present invention also provides a computer readable medium storing instructions, which, when executed, causes a system to perform the operations of the above method.

[0023] The method and device for orthognathic digital virtual occlusion matching of the present invention are applicable to the matching of whole and divided jaws in orthognathic surgery. The digital virtual technology is used to virtually match the final occlusion in four main steps, namely, firstly, the occlusion of the anterior teeth is established, then the mandibular dentition is matched, then the occlusion of the posterior teeth is established, and finally the maxillary dentition is matched. The overall technical route is guided by the occlusion of the anterior teeth of the anterior bone block. Compared with the existing manual matching method through plaster models, the posterior teeth must be established first to stabilize the occlusion. The technical solution of the present invention does not need to rely on the posterior teeth to stabilize the occlusion, which is more in line with the aesthetic function requirements of orthognathic orthodontics. The virtual matching of the present invention can visualize the entire process of three-dimensional reconstruction of tooth roots, avoid osteotomy damage to tooth roots, and ensure clinical feasibility with root matching. The American Board of Orthodontics Objective Grading System (ABO-OGS) is further used to score the effect of virtual final occlusion, thereby improving the consistency of efficacy evaluation.

[0035] Of course, those skilled in the art should understand that the above-mentioned devices are only examples, and other existing or future devices that are applicable to the present invention should also be included in the scope of protection of the present invention and are included here by reference.

[0036] In the description of the embodiments of the present invention, “plurality” means two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0037] In the existing orthognathic surgery final occlusion matching method, the model surgery segmentation matching is not only cumbersome, time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also has serious logical flaws. The plan maker needs to match the posterior bone blocks first, establish the staggered occlusion of the posterior cusps to stabilize the plaster model, and then bond the anterior bone blocks to the upper and lower jaws respectively. However, the treatment effect of improving aesthetics is concentrated in the anterior area. The model surgery matching step makes the positioning of the anterior area dependent on the established position of the posterior teeth, and the order and importance of the occlusal matching of the dentition are reversed, which obviously does not meet the goal of clinical treatment.

[0038] Secondly, if the jaw is divided into many pieces, it is difficult to fix and observe and adjust multiple bone pieces at the same time, and the operation is greatly restricted. The plaster model can only reproduce the anatomical features of the crown and gums. The doctor needs to draw the root contour on the plaster according to the imaging and then cut it to improve the clinical feasibility. The error is large, but it is difficult to avoid the above problems in the surgical matching of the model. At the same time, it is difficult to have a unified standard for the verification of the feasibility of the terminal occlusion.

[0039] Figure 1 The flowchart of the method for orthognathic digital virtual occlusion matching of the present invention is shown, which includes the following steps:

[0040] Step 1: Obtain a three-dimensional digital model of the patient's oral cavity, wherein the three-dimensional digital model of the oral cavity includes the jaw and dentition.

[0041] In some embodiments, the three-dimensional digital model of the oral cavity is formed by aligning a radioactive scanning model and an intraoral optical scanning model, wherein the radioactive scanning model is a three-dimensional skull model of the patient obtained by CBCT, including the patient's teeth and jaws, and the intraoral optical scanning model is a three-dimensional intraoral model of the patient obtained by an intraoral scanning device, including the patient's teeth and soft tissue.

[0042] The three-dimensional skull model and the three-dimensional intraoral model are imported into computer-aided design software, such as ProPlanCMF, to align the two, and the teeth in the three-dimensional skull model are replaced with the teeth in the three-dimensional intraoral model, so as to obtain the three-dimensional digital model of the oral cavity.

[0043] Step 2: segment the jaws in the three-dimensional digital model of the oral cavity to form a segmentation model.

[0044] In some embodiments, the three-dimensional digital model of the oral cavity obtained in step one is cut using a design cutting module in computer-aided software, such as virtual surgical segmentation such as Lefort I, BSSRO, anterior maxillary osteotomy, anterior mandibular subapical osteotomy, etc. in ProPlan CMF, thereby obtaining the segmented model.

[0045] Step three: calibrate reference position information on the segmentation model and determine adjustment rules.

[0046] The reference position information includes reference points, reference lines, and reference planes for defining the positions of the jaw and teeth in the segmentation model; and the adjustment rules are a number of reference items and their standard ranges set based on the reference position information.

[0047] Step 4: Pair the jaw blocks in the segmented model until the adjustment rules are met.

[0048] Specifically, the method includes the following steps in sequence:

[0049] S1. Establish anterior occlusion;

[0050] S2, align the mandibular dentition;

[0051] S3, establish posterior occlusion;

[0052] S4, align the maxillary dentition;

[0053] S5. Check whether the adjustment rules are met. If not, repeat steps S1 to S4 until the adjustment rules are met.

[0054] Step 5: Perform ABO-OGS scoring on the completed occlusal model.

[0055] In some embodiments, the ABO-OGS scoring items include alignment, marginal ridge height, buccolingual inclination, occlusal relationship, occlusal contact, overjet, and adjacent tooth contact relationship.

[0056] Based on the above-mentioned method of orthognathic digital virtual occlusion matching of the present invention, the above-mentioned method is further explained below through an exemplary example.

[0057] First, the patient's jaw 3D model data is obtained through CBCT, and then the patient's intraoral 3D model data is obtained through intraoral scanning.

[0058] The acquired 3D model data is imported into ProPlan CMF 3.0, and the CT dentition data is registered and replaced with the oral scan data. Specifically, the dentition in the CT model is replaced with the dentition in the oral scan model.

[0059] The design cutting module in ProPlan CMF 3.0 was used to perform virtual surgical segmentation of the jaw, such as Lefort I, BSSRO, maxillary anterior osteotomy, and mandibular anterior subapical osteotomy. Figures 2 to 6 In the illustrated embodiment, Lefort I and anterior maxillary osteotomy are performed on the maxilla, and BSSRO and anterior mandibular subapical osteotomy are performed on the mandible.

[0060] The reference points, reference lines, and reference planes required for subsequent occlusal alignment are calibrated on the segmented three-dimensional structure, and the reference values ​​and their normal range standards are defined.

[0061] Adjust the relative position of the jaw blocks, and use the real-time measurement function of the software to make the adjusted position of the jaw blocks meet the normal range standard of the reference value defined above, so as to complete the virtual occlusion of the jaw blocks. The model diagrams of each stage in the process of occlusion can be referred to Figures 2 to 6 As shown, specifically including:

[0062] (1) Matching the anterior bone blocks of the upper and lower jaws

[0063] refer to Figure 2 First, align the anterior bone blocks of the upper and lower jaws to meet the functional requirements of the aesthetic area and establish the anterior occlusion. Align the midline of the upper and lower dentition, control the anterior tooth coverage to 2-3mm, and ensure that the overlap of the upper and lower incisors does not exceed 1 / 3 of the crown. The upper and lower central incisor angles U1-L1 are within the normal range of 56°±8.2°, and there is at least one light bite contact point in the anterior area.

[0064] Figure 2 In the figure, the green line segment A corresponds to the midline of the upper and lower dentition, the green line segment B corresponds to the dimensions involved in the above-mentioned anterior tooth coverage, the orange line segment C corresponds to the dimensions involved in the above-mentioned overbite, the red points D and E correspond to U1 and L1 respectively, the angle F formed by the blue lines corresponds to the upper and lower central incisor angle U1-L1, and the brown point G corresponds to the above-mentioned light occlusal contact point.

[0065] (2) Alignment of mandibular dentition

[0066] refer to Figure 3 On the basis of step (1), the mandibular anterior and posterior bone blocks are assembled to establish a complete and ideal mandibular dentition. The distance between the anterior and posterior bone blocks should be controlled to be 2-3 mm, the curvature of the Spee curve should be less than or equal to 2 mm, and the mandibular dentition should form a relatively smooth dental arch curve when viewed from above, and the first sequence should be leveled.

[0067] Figure 3 In the figure, the green line segments H and I correspond to the distance between the front and rear bone blocks, and the green line segments H and I are both shown as line segments connecting two red points, which are the most convex points of the adjacent surfaces of the adjacent teeth at the ends of the front and rear bone blocks, and in this embodiment, they are specifically the most convex point of the distal surface of the mandibular canine on the corresponding side (left or right) of the mandible and the most convex point of the mesial surface of the mandibular second premolar. The red curve J corresponds to the Spee curve, and the orange curve K corresponds to the dental arch curve.

[0068] (3) Assemble the upper and lower posterior bone blocks

[0069] refer to Figure 4 , on the basis of step (2), the posterior bone blocks of the upper and lower jaws are assembled to establish a stable posterior occlusion. The molar Class I relationship is achieved as much as possible, the posterior tooth cusps are staggered, and the contact points are evenly distributed in the left and right dentitions, with at least one contact point on each side. The bilateral posterior teeth are appropriately covered, and the angle of view is adjusted to observe the occlusion from bottom to top, and the buccal cusps of the mandibular posterior teeth bite within the central fossa of the upper posterior teeth.

[0070] Figure 4 In the figure, the red line segment L illustrates the above-mentioned Class I relationship of the molars, the brown point M corresponds to the above-mentioned contact point, and the blue curve N corresponds to the dimensions involved in the above-mentioned posterior tooth coverage.

[0071] (4) Alignment of maxillary dentition

[0072] refer to Figure 5 The maxillary posterior bone block not only has a positional relationship with the mandibular posterior bone block, but also has a positional relationship with the maxillary anterior bone block. On the basis of step (3), the maxillary anterior and posterior bone blocks are assembled to establish a complete and ideal maxillary dentition. The factors to be considered are similar to those in step (2). The distance between the anterior and posterior bone blocks needs to be controlled within 2 to 3 mm. The compensation curve needs to control the vertical distance between the maxillary canine cusp and the second premolar buccal cusp within 0 to 3 mm. The maxillary dentition forms a relatively smooth dental arch curve from a top-down perspective, and the first sequence is flattened.

[0073] Figure 5 In the figure, the green line segments O and P correspond to the distance between the front and rear bone blocks mentioned above. The green line segments O and P are both shown as line segments connecting two red points. The two red points are the most convex points of the adjacent surfaces of the adjacent teeth at the ends of the front and rear bone blocks. In this embodiment, they are specifically the most convex point of the distal surface of the maxillary canine on the corresponding side (left or right) of the maxillary and the most convex point of the mesial surface of the maxillary second premolar. The red curve Q corresponds to the compensation curve, and the orange curve R corresponds to the dental arch curve.

[0074] (5) Calibrate all reference indicators

[0075] refer to Figure 6 , calibrate all the above-mentioned indicators, including midline, overbite, overjet, upper and lower central incisor angles U1-L1, anterior and posterior bone distance, Spee curve, compensation curve, dental arch curve, molar relationship, and contact point. If all requirements are not met, start from step (1) and cycle until all indicators meet clinical requirements and obtain the final occlusion.

[0076] After the final digital occlusion is obtained through virtual alignment, it is scored using the American Board of Orthodontic Specialists Objective Grading System (ABO-OGS). A deduction system is implemented according to the preset rules and procedures. The fewer the deductions, the better the occlusal alignment effect.

[0077] The judging criteria and process are as follows: Figure 7As shown, it includes the following seven items: alignment, marginal ridge height, buccolingual inclination, overjet, occlusal relationship, occlusal contact, and adjacent tooth contact relationship. Points are deducted according to the scoring criteria published by the American Certification Board of Orthodontics, and finally the ABO score of the virtual final occlusion is obtained.

[0078] According to the above method, the doctor can complete the standardized establishment and evaluation of block occlusion through the above virtual matching steps and ABO occlusion scoring.

[0079] The above method uses computer-aided technology for virtual planning, completes the registration of CT three-dimensional data and oral scan data, the segmentation of digital three-dimensional models and the virtual final occlusion alignment. It is goal-oriented to occlude the anterior aesthetic zone, visualizes the tooth root alignment throughout the process, and calibrates and checks various comprehensive indicators in real time to standardize the process of final occlusion alignment in orthognathic surgery, which greatly improves the diagnosis and treatment efficiency and clinical feasibility, emphasizes the priority of aesthetic function, and makes up for the inevitable defects of model surgery. The ABO-OGS system is used to evaluate the alignment results of the final occlusion, and it can be used as a guide to obtain a more scientific and clinically practical tooth arrangement. Finally, a set of visualization virtual occlusion alignment and evaluation system for orthognathic surgery of maxillofacial deformities is formed to promote the development of digital precision orthognathic and orthodontic combined diagnosis and treatment.
