Abstract

A method, system, and computer-readable storage medium for detecting defects in images during three-dimensional measurement of teeth. An operator may scan the teeth using a dental camera, and a trained deep neural network may automatically detect portions of the input image that have defects and generate output information regarding those defects for corrective action to be taken.
