Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of three-dimensional model, in particular to a crown design method and device and computer equipment. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the field of oral prosthetics, crown repair is the core means to treat tooth defects and restore tooth function and aesthetics. Its process usually relies on the cooperation of clinics and processing plants: first, the clinic collects the prepared tooth dental model and occlusion relationship data containing upper and lower tooth data after tooth preparation through an intraoral scanning device, then sends these data to the processing plant, and the processing plant designs and manufactures the formal crown based on the received prepared tooth dental model and occlusion relationship data, and finally the manufactured formal crown is returned to the clinic, and the doctor completes the tooth wearing operation for the patient.

[0003] However, the existing crown repair process still has significant technical defects, resulting in long doctor clinical polishing time, high processing plant rework rate, poor patient experience, and other problems, which are specifically manifested as follows: First, if the collected occlusion relationship deviates from the real occlusion in the patient's mouth, the designed formal crown will not have a problem when trying on the processing plant's printed dental model, but when worn in the patient's mouth, it will have occlusion high, low, adjacent air gap, or tight conditions. Second, if the neck margin of the scanning data is not accurate enough, the processing plant will design based on inaccurate data, and the formal crown will have a problem of not fitting the edge or even not being in place when worn in the patient's mouth. Third, the processing plant will perform dynamic occlusion simulation on the digital model or physical printed model after completing the crown, and perform occlusion high point cutting (or polishing), which deviates from the patient's actual dynamic occlusion, which will also affect the patient's dynamic occlusion.

[0004] If these problems occur, some can be solved by the doctor spending time to polish, while some such as formal crowns with occlusion low or adjacent air gap can only be redesigned by the processing plant, affecting the patient experience.

[0005] There is an urgent need for a method that can enable the processing plant to design and produce a formal crown that is highly adapted to the patient, to reduce the doctor's clinical polishing burden, reduce the factory's crown rework rate, and improve the patient's experience. SUMMARY

For example, in some scenarios, the scanning device can scan the patient's oral cavity, crown, etc., and then process the obtained scanning data. In some scenarios, the scanning device can scan the patient's oral cavity, scanning body, impression, etc., and then send the scanning data to other devices (such as a user's mobile phone, computer, etc.) in wired or wireless communication with the scanning device, and then process the scanning data by the other devices.

[0033] Figure 1 is a flowchart of the crown design method provided by embodiments of the present application. As shown in Figure 1 the method comprises the following steps S110-S140.

[0034] S110, obtaining the prepared tooth dental model of the first user and the occlusion relationship data of the upper and lower jaws in the prepared tooth dental model, and generating a temporary crown design model corresponding to the prepared tooth in the prepared tooth dental model.

[0035] In the present embodiment, the first user is a patient who currently needs to undergo crown repair, and the prepared tooth dental model of the first user can be obtained by directly scanning the patient's oral cavity through an oral scanner after the patient's teeth are prepared, or pulled from a cloud or local database (at this time, the prepared tooth dental model is pre-acquired and stored in the cloud or local database before being pulled for use).

[0036] The occlusion relationship data can be obtained by the occlusion splicing function of the oral scanning software when the dental scanner scans the patient's oral cavity to obtain the tooth preparation dental model, and is pulled from the cloud or local database (at this time, the occlusion relationship data of the tooth preparation dental model is calculated in advance, and is then associated and stored with the tooth preparation dental model to the cloud or local database, and is pulled when used). The oral scanning software can be installed in the dental scanner or in the computer device provided in the application. In the tooth preparation dental model, the upper jaw sub-model and the lower jaw sub-model are included, and the upper jaw sub-model and / or the lower jaw sub-model include at least one prepared tooth and a non-prepared tooth. The prepared tooth refers to the remaining tooth after the tooth to be repaired is polished, and the non-prepared tooth refers to the tooth model that does not need to be repaired.

[0037] With the popularization of chair-side rapid temporary crown design software and the promotion of printer clinic end, doctors can use chair-side rapid design and printing to print temporary crowns for patients. It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present application, only doctors are used as examples to illustrate the performers of temporary crown printing and crown polishing. In actual application, temporary crown printing and crown polishing can also be performed by other users such as medical students or other technicians. The specific identity of the performer is not limited in the present embodiment.

[0038] Specifically, please refer to Figure 2 In some embodiments, the temporary crown design model can be generated by the following steps: S1101, obtaining a standard tooth model corresponding to the tooth position number of the prepared tooth; S1102, registering the standard tooth model and the prepared tooth to obtain a target tooth model matched with the prepared tooth; S1103, generating a temporary crown design model according to the target tooth model and the prepared tooth.

[0039] Specifically, the temporary crown design model is generated according to the target tooth model and the prepared tooth, including: generating an initial crown model according to the target tooth model and the prepared tooth; and performing adaptive adjustment processing on the initial crown model based on a preset temporary crown design model and the tooth preparation dental model to obtain the temporary crown design model.

[0040] In this embodiment, a standard model database is provided, which stores a standard tooth model corresponding to each tooth position number in the oral cavity. In this embodiment, a standard tooth model corresponding to the tooth position number of the prepared tooth is obtained from the standard model database, and then the standard tooth model and the prepared tooth are registered to obtain a target tooth model. Finally, part of the prepared tooth model is subtracted from the target tooth model to obtain an initial crown model, and then the initial crown model is adaptively adjusted by a preset temporary crown software to obtain a temporary crown design model. The adaptive adjustment process includes template tooth adjustment (there are multiple standard tooth models corresponding to the tooth position number, and the most suitable standard tooth model is found by adjustment), abutment state adjustment, and occlusion adjustment.

[0041] The generated temporary crown design model is as shown in Figure 3

[0042] S120, a reference crown model is obtained, the reference crown model being a crown model obtained by scanning a reference crown, the reference crown being a crown that meets the wearing conditions of the crown after the temporary crown is polished, and the temporary crown being a crown manufactured based on the temporary crown design model.

[0043] In this embodiment, the temporary crown that meets the wearing conditions of the crown after polishing adjustment is determined as the reference crown. The reference crown model of this embodiment can be obtained by directly scanning the reference crown by a scanner alone, or can be obtained by pulling from a cloud or local database (at this time, the reference crown model is pre-acquired and stored in the cloud or local database, and then pulled when used). If obtained by pulling from the cloud or local database, the reference crown model can be associated with the dental jaw model of the prepared tooth through the user identifier corresponding to the first user, and data associated with the first user, such as the reference crown model and the dental jaw model of the prepared tooth, are stored in the same folder to avoid data confusion and facilitate subsequent model pulling.

[0044] The reference crown model is a model obtained by scanning the outer crown of the reference crown (without scanning the inner crown), or a model obtained by scanning both the outer crown and the inner crown of the reference crown.

[0045] In some embodiments, after obtaining the reference crown model, the method further comprises: performing a scanning integrity judgment on the obtained reference crown model, and if the scanning is incomplete, a prompt information can be sent to prompt the user to perform supplementary scanning.

[0046] The oral cavity scanning devices of steps S110 and S120 can be the same, which facilitates data merging. In another embodiment, step S120 can also use a desktop scanning device to scan the reference crown, so as to make the reference crown model more accurate.

[0047] ​In some embodiments, before the reference crown model is obtained, the method further comprises: obtaining a crown-wearing dental arch intermediate model, the crown-wearing dental arch intermediate model being a model obtained by scanning the oral cavity of the first user wearing an intermediate dental crown on the prepared teeth of the first user, the intermediate dental crown being a dental crown obtained in the process of the second user grinding the temporary dental crown; performing a preset verification on the intermediate dental crown based on the crown-wearing dental arch intermediate model, the preset verification comprising one or more of an adjacent space verification, an occlusion space verification, an edge fit verification, and an occlusion simulation verification, the occlusion simulation verification comprising one or more of a static occlusion simulation verification and a dynamic occlusion simulation verification; if the verification results of the preset verification are all passed, it is determined that the intermediate dental crown meets the dental crown wearing condition, and the intermediate dental crown is taken as the reference dental crown; if the verification results of the preset verification include a failed verification, a prompt information is sent or a corresponding modification scheme is generated.

[0048] Specifically, the temporary dental crown of the present embodiment can be printed or cut based on a temporary crown design model. The manufacture of the temporary dental crown will be described below only by taking the case that the temporary dental crown is printed based on a temporary crown design model.

[0049] In the present embodiment, after the temporary dental crown is printed, the first user tries on the temporary dental crown, and then the doctor adjusts the temporary dental crown according to the actual wearing condition of the first user, for example, performs corresponding adjacent and occlusion grinding adjustment and edge fit grinding adjustment. The temporary dental crown in the adjustment process is referred to as an intermediate dental crown in the present embodiment, and the crown form after adjustment that meets the actual situation in the patient's mouth (i.e., meets the dental crown wearing condition) is determined as a reference dental crown.

[0050] In the present embodiment, the adjacent space verification, the occlusion space verification, the edge fit verification, and the occlusion simulation verification are used to determine whether the intermediate dental crown meets the dental crown wearing condition.

[0051] The adjacent space verification is performed by the following steps: The adjacent tooth spacing between the intermediate dental crown and the adjacent teeth of the intermediate dental crown is determined based on the crown-wearing dental arch intermediate model; if the adjacent tooth spacing is less than a preset adjacent tooth spacing threshold, an artificial adjacent verification prompt is generated, the artificial adjacent verification prompt instructing the doctor to perform artificial adjacent verification on the adjacent tooth spacing; if an artificial adjacent verification passed information is received, the verification passed is determined as the verification result of the adjacent space verification; if the adjacent tooth spacing is greater than or equal to the preset adjacent tooth spacing threshold, or an artificial adjacent verification failed information is received, the verification failed is determined as the verification result of the adjacent space verification.

[0052] Specifically, when the first user wears the intermediate dental crown, after obtaining the dental arch intermediate model of the crown by scanning, the adjacent tooth spacing between the intermediate dental crown and the adjacent teeth of the intermediate dental crown is calculated based on the dental arch intermediate model of the crown. If the adjacent tooth spacing is less than the preset adjacent tooth spacing threshold, the doctor is prompted to perform manual adjacent check on the adjacent tooth spacing at this time. At this time, the doctor can verify whether the adjacent tooth spacing meets the requirements through dental floss.

[0053] If the adjacent tooth spacing is greater than or equal to the preset adjacent tooth spacing threshold, the doctor can also be prompted that there is a gap between the current intermediate dental crown tooth and the adjacent tooth, and the temporary crown design model needs to be reprinted for adjustment. If the manual adjacent check fails, the tooth interproximal gap is too narrow, at this time, a modification scheme is generated to prompt the doctor to polish the adjacent edge of the intermediate dental crown.

[0054] The schematic diagram of the gap between the reference crown and the adjacent tooth is shown in Figure 4

[0055] The occlusion gap check is performed through the following steps: The interarch tooth spacing between the intermediate dental crown and the opposite dental arch of the intermediate dental crown is determined based on the dental arch intermediate model of the crown. If the interarch tooth spacing is less than the preset interarch tooth spacing threshold, the oral texture image of the dental arch intermediate model of the crown is obtained, and the oral texture image includes a test paper occlusion impression. The occlusion area of the intermediate dental crown is determined through the test paper occlusion impression. If the occlusion area is greater than or equal to the preset area threshold, the check is determined as the check result of the occlusion gap check. If the interarch tooth spacing is greater than or equal to the preset interarch tooth spacing threshold, or the occlusion area is less than the preset area threshold, the check is determined as the check result of the occlusion gap check.

[0056] Specifically, when the first user wears the intermediate dental crown, after obtaining the dental arch intermediate model of the crown by scanning, the interarch tooth spacing between the intermediate dental crown and the opposite dental arch of the intermediate dental crown is calculated based on the dental arch intermediate model of the crown. The interarch tooth spacing is the spacing between the intermediate dental crown and the opposite dental arch under the closed state of the upper and lower dental arches. If the interarch tooth spacing is less than the preset interarch tooth spacing threshold, the oral texture image of the dental arch intermediate model of the crown is further obtained, and the occlusion gap check is performed through the test paper occlusion impression in the oral texture image. The area of the test paper occlusion impression indicates the contact area of the upper and lower dental arches. If the area is too small, it indicates that the contact area between the intermediate dental crown and the opposite dental arch is too small, and the occlusion gap check fails. If the area is greater than or equal to the preset area threshold, it is determined that the occlusion gap check passes.

[0057] ​If the interocclusal distance of the antagonist tooth is greater than or equal to the preset interocclusal distance threshold value, or the occlusal area is less than the preset area threshold value, the doctor can also be prompted that the current intermediate crown tooth interproximal space exists, and the temporary crown design model needs to be reprinted for re-adjustment.

[0058] A schematic diagram of the reference crown existing occlusal space is shown in Figure 5

[0059] The edge fitting verification is performed by the following steps: Based on the intermediate model of the tooth with the crown, it is determined whether the edge of the intermediate crown and the cervical margin line of the prepared tooth fit; if they fit, the verification passes and is determined as the verification result of the edge fitting verification; if they do not fit, the verification fails and is determined as the verification result of the edge fitting verification.

[0060] Specifically, the edge of the intermediate crown in the intermediate model of the tooth with the crown and the cervical margin line of the prepared tooth are extracted, and then it is determined whether the edge of the intermediate crown and the cervical margin line of the prepared tooth coincide; if they coincide, it is determined that they fit; if they do not coincide, it is determined that they do not fit.

[0061] A schematic diagram of the reference crown edge not fitting is shown in Figure 6

[0062] In some other embodiments, the interproximal space verification, the occlusal space verification, and the edge fitting verification can be performed manually by the doctor to determine whether the intermediate crown meets the tooth crown wearing condition.

[0063] The static occlusion simulation verification is used to verify whether there is a static occlusion high point on the intermediate crown; if there is not, the verification passes and is determined as the verification result of the static occlusion simulation verification; if there is, the verification fails and is determined as the verification result of the static occlusion simulation verification, a prompt for the verification failure is generated, and a modification scheme is generated, which indicates that the static occlusion high point on the intermediate crown is removed and includes specific position information of the static occlusion high point on the intermediate crown.

[0064] The dynamic occlusion simulation verification is used to verify whether there is a dynamic occlusion high point on the intermediate crown; if there is not, the verification passes and is determined as the verification result of the dynamic occlusion simulation verification; if there is, the verification fails and is determined as the verification result of the dynamic occlusion simulation verification, a prompt for the verification failure is generated, and a modification scheme is generated, which indicates that the dynamic occlusion high point on the intermediate crown is removed and includes specific position information of the dynamic occlusion high point on the intermediate crown.

[0065] ​​In addition, the embodiment also presets that each check result of the check result is added to subsequent crown design data, so that the second user can refer to more information when designing the formal crown, and generate a formal crown that is more suitable for the patient. The second user is a user who designs the formal crown, and can be a factory crown designer, a doctor, a medical staff, a student, a technician, or the like. Hereinafter, the factory crown designer is taken as an example.

[0066] S130, determine the position relationship data between the reference crown model and the prepared tooth dental model.

[0067] In the embodiment, the reference crown model is aligned to the corresponding prepared tooth position in the prepared tooth dental model, so as to determine the position relationship data between the reference crown model and the prepared tooth dental model.

[0068] Since there is no common data area between the reference crown model and the prepared tooth dental model, it is difficult to directly align the reference crown model and the prepared tooth dental model. The crown-wearing dental model is a dental model obtained by scanning the oral cavity of the first user when the first user wears the reference crown on the prepared tooth, and the crown-wearing dental model not only includes the common data area between the prepared tooth dental model, but also includes the common data area between the reference crown model. The embodiment indirectly aligns the reference crown model and the prepared tooth dental model through the crown-wearing dental model. Specifically, please refer to Figure 7 , step S130 includes: S1301, obtain the crown-wearing dental model, and align the crown-wearing dental model and the prepared tooth dental model to obtain first alignment data. The crown-wearing dental model is a dental model obtained by scanning the oral cavity of the first user when the first user wears the reference crown on the prepared tooth; S1302, align the reference crown model and the crown-wearing dental model to obtain second alignment data; S1303, determine the position relationship data according to the first alignment data and the second alignment data.

[0069] Specifically, according to the crown-wearing dental model in the first alignment data and the second alignment data, the reference crown model and the prepared tooth dental model are aligned to obtain a target position of the reference crown model in the prepared tooth dental model; and the position relationship data between the reference crown model and the prepared tooth dental model is determined according to the target position.

[0070] It can be seen that the embodiment can indirectly align the reference crown model and the prepared tooth dental model through the crown-wearing dental model.

[0071] Due to insufficient distance, the abutment data (abutment morphology) between the reference crown and the adjacent teeth when the first user wears the crown cannot be directly obtained by scanning, and this part is exactly the morphology part that the second user is interested in. The embodiment can align the reference crown model and the prepared tooth dental model through the crown dental model to obtain the abutment data between the reference crown and the adjacent teeth when the user wears the crown, thereby solving the problem that the abutment data cannot be directly obtained by scanning.

[0072] In some embodiments, the first alignment data, the second alignment data, and the positional relationship data can be a position conversion matrix.

[0073] In some embodiments, the positional relationship data between the reference crown model and the prepared tooth dental model can also be determined by the following steps: The inner surface of the reference crown model and the outer surface of the prepared tooth in the prepared tooth dental model are identified, and the inner surface and the outer surface are aligned to determine the positional relationship data between the reference crown model and the prepared tooth dental model. The identification of the inner surface of the reference crown model and the outer surface of the prepared tooth in the prepared tooth dental model can be achieved by a tooth segmentation model, a semantic recognition model, or an AI recognition model.

[0074] In addition, in some embodiments, the positional relationship data between the reference crown model and the prepared tooth dental model can also be determined by the following steps: The axis of the reference crown model and the axis of the prepared tooth in the prepared tooth dental model are extracted, and the positional relationship data between the reference crown model and the prepared tooth dental model is determined by aligning the two axes. The extraction of the axis can be determined by geometric calculation or an AI model.

[0075] In addition, the positional relationship data between the reference crown model and the prepared tooth dental model can also be determined by an AI model with crown and prepared tooth alignment function.

[0076] S140, determining the crown design data according to the prepared tooth dental model, the reference crown model, the positional relationship data, and the occlusion relationship data, the crown design data being a designed crown data or a data used to provide the second user to perform formal crown design on the prepared tooth.

[0077] In some embodiments, the local or cloud directly designs a formal crown model data through an AI model according to the prepared tooth dental model, the reference crown model, the positional relationship data, and the occlusion relationship data, and takes the formal crown model data as the crown design data. Subsequently, a formal crown can be manufactured based on the crown design data (such as sent to a printing device or a cutting device for direct printing or manufacturing), or the second user can be sent to manufacture a formal crown based on the crown design data.

[0078] In some embodiments, the tooth preparation dental model, the reference crown model, the position relationship data and the occlusion relationship data are packaged to generate the crown design data, so that the second user can design the formal crown based on the reference to the crown design data. After the second user completes the design, the designed data can be sent back to the first user for manufacturing the formal crown, or the second user can directly manufacture the formal crown.

[0079] In some embodiments, the crown design data in the present embodiment further includes the proximal surface data between the reference crown model and the adjacent tooth of the prepared tooth, and the cervical margin fit data between the reference crown model and the prepared tooth. The second user does not need to judge the proximal surface data and the cervical margin fit data by naked eye, thereby improving the design efficiency and the fitting degree of the formal crown. Specifically, please refer to Figure 8 , step S140 includes: S1401, aligning the reference crown model to the tooth preparation dental model based on the position relationship data to obtain a tooth model with a crown target model; S1402, calculating the proximal surface data between the reference crown model and the adjacent tooth of the prepared tooth, and the cervical margin fit data between the reference crown model and the prepared tooth in the tooth model with the crown target model; S1403, determining the crown design data according to the tooth preparation dental model, the reference crown model, the position relationship data, the occlusion relationship data, the proximal surface data and the cervical margin fit data.

[0080] The reference crown model includes a plurality of grid points, the proximal surface data includes the closest distance value of each grid point in the proximal surface (the closest surface to the adjacent tooth) of the reference crown model to the adjacent tooth, and the cervical margin fit data includes the cervical margin fit line information (cervical margin fit form) of the reference crown model in the prepared tooth.

[0081] It can be seen that the tooth model with the crown target model obtained in the present embodiment has the adjacent tooth data and the cervical margin data unique to the tooth preparation dental model, so that more proximal surface data and cervical margin fit data can be calculated. Therefore, the crown design data provided to the second user (factory crown designer) in the present embodiment includes not only the tooth preparation dental model and the occlusion relationship data, but also the reference crown model, the position relationship data of the reference crown model in the tooth preparation dental model, the proximal surface data of the reference crown model and the cervical margin fit data.

[0082] Further, in some embodiments, after obtaining the crown design data, the computer device will automatically send the crown design data to the user terminal corresponding to the second user, so that the second user can obtain the crown design data for the formal crown design of the first user.

[0083] In summary, the application first acquires the tooth preparation dental model of the first user (patient) and the occlusion relationship data of the upper and lower jaws in the tooth preparation dental model, then generates a temporary crown design model corresponding to the prepared tooth in the tooth preparation dental model, prints the temporary crown on site based on the temporary crown design model, then wears the temporary crown in the patient's mouth, and the doctor polishes the temporary crown based on the wearing condition of the patient to obtain a reference crown that meets the wearing condition of the crown, and then acquires the reference crown model of the reference crown by scanning, aligns the reference crown model to the tooth preparation dental model to determine the positional relationship data between the reference crown model and the tooth preparation dental model, and finally determines the crown design data according to the tooth preparation dental model, the reference crown model, the positional relationship data and the occlusion relationship data, and provides the crown design data to the second user (factory crown designer) to design the formal crown for the prepared tooth. When designing the formal crown, the factory crown designer not only refers to the tooth preparation dental model and the occlusion relationship data, but also refers to the reference crown model with high adaptability to the patient, and can also refer to the positional relationship data of the reference crown model in the tooth preparation dental model. Based on the related data of the reference crown in the mouth, the adaptability of the subsequent designed formal crown to the patient can be improved, thereby reducing the clinical polishing burden of the doctor, reducing the rework rate of the factory crown and improving the patient experience.

[0084] Specifically, in the application, after collecting the patient data, the doctor uses a digital design tool to quickly generate a temporary crown shape. After printing the temporary crown, wear the tooth, polish some occlusion, abutment high point, and trim the edge. At this time, the polished temporary crown shape (reference crown) conforms to the actual occlusion and abutment condition in the patient's mouth. By scanning the polished temporary crown shape, the processing factory sends the reference for processing. The processing factory designs the shape of the formal crown based on the temporary crown, which can avoid some rework or later polishing adjustment of the crown. In some embodiments, the application also scans the situation of the polished temporary crown shape in the mouth to obtain a crown-wearing dental model and a crown-wearing dental target model, so as to obtain related data of the reference crown in the mouth, further improving the adaptability of the subsequent designed formal crown to the patient.

[0085] The technical solution provided by the application brings the patient's in-mouth trial tooth to the data sending processing factory in advance, so that the actual situation of the patient's in-mouth tooth wearing and the actual contact shape of the crown can be known in advance. The processing factory refers to the crown data polished after the patient wears the trial tooth, which can greatly reduce the deviation during design and avoid some polishing and rework in the later stage.

[0086] Please refer to Figure 9 , Figure 9 The flowchart of the crown design method provided by another embodiment of the application includes steps S210-S230: S210, acquire the prepared tooth dental model of the first user and the occlusion relationship data of the upper and lower jaws in the prepared tooth dental model, and generate a temporary crown design model corresponding to the prepared tooth in the prepared tooth dental model; S220, acquire a reference crown model, the reference crown model being a dental crown model obtained by scanning a reference dental crown, the reference dental crown being a dental crown obtained after polishing a temporary dental crown, the temporary dental crown being a dental crown manufactured based on the temporary crown design model; In this embodiment, the reference crown model is a dental crown model obtained by scanning the inner crown and the outer crown of the reference dental crown.

[0087] Steps S210-S220 are similar to steps S110-S120, and will not be described here.

[0088] S230, if the shape and edge of the reference crown model meet the preset reference crown shape design requirement, the reference crown model is determined as the dental crown design data, the dental crown design data being the designed dental crown data or the data used to provide the second user with the formal dental crown design for the prepared tooth.

[0089] The shape of the reference crown model includes the surface shape of the reference crown model, the edge of the reference crown model includes the neck edge line of the reference crown model, the reference crown shape design requirement includes that the outer surface of the reference crown model has no hole, and the difference degree of the neck edge line of the reference crown model does not exceed a threshold value, wherein whether the outer surface of the reference crown model has a hole can be determined by manual judgment or by AI model intelligent judgment, and whether the difference degree of the neck edge line of the reference crown model exceeds the threshold value can be determined by manually judging whether the distance between the neck edge line of the reference crown model and the prepared tooth exceeds the threshold value when the prepared tooth of the first user wears the reference dental crown, or by AI model intelligent judgment whether the distance between the neck edge line and the prepared tooth exceeds the threshold value.

[0090] In addition, if the shape and / or edge of the reference crown model does not meet the preset reference crown shape design requirement, the position relationship data between the reference crown model and the prepared tooth dental model is determined; and the dental crown design data is determined according to the prepared tooth dental model, the reference crown model, the position relationship data and the occlusion relationship data.

[0091] In this embodiment, the specific steps of determining the position relationship data between the reference crown model and the prepared tooth dental model are similar to those of step S130, and will not be described here. The specific steps of determining the dental crown design data according to the prepared tooth dental model, the reference crown model, the position relationship data and the occlusion relationship data are similar to those of step S140, and will not be described here.

[0092] In summary, the embodiment provides a reference crown model for the factory designer to design a formal crown, and since the reference crown corresponding to the reference crown model is a crown that meets the wearing conditions of the patient after the temporary crown is polished, the factory designer can improve the fitting degree of the formal crown to the patient based on the reference crown model, thereby reducing the burden of clinical polishing of the doctor, reducing the rework rate of the factory crown, and improving the patient experience.
