[0004] The invisible tooth corrector corrects teeth for a relatively long period of time, and usually goes through multiple correction stages to correct the teeth of the patient to the target position. In order to ensure the effect of tooth correction, a personalized tooth correction scheme is usually customized for the patient, which includes multiple correction stages, and different tooth correctors are usually needed to be worn in each correction stage to complete different correction degrees.

[0005] In the process of tooth correction, the doctor usually sets the corresponding tooth correction scheme according to the condition of the patient, communicates with the tooth corrector designer, and puts forward multiple requirements for the passive tooth corrector. It may be necessary to communicate and adjust multiple times to design the invisible tooth corrector. This way, the communication cost of the doctor and the designer is increased, and the design efficiency of the invisible tooth corrector is reduced. SUMMARY

[0006] The present application provides a display method of tooth correction scheme, a tooth corrector manufacturing method and a device to reduce the communication cost of the doctor and the designer and improve the design efficiency of the tooth correction scheme.

[0007] In a first aspect, the present application provides a display method of tooth correction scheme, which is applied to a client and is realized through the interaction of the client and a server. The present application does not specifically limit this method, which is executed as follows:

[0009] The present application displays a tooth treatment scheme through the first interface, so that the patient and an operator (for example, a doctor) of the first interface can more intuitively feel the process and period of the tooth treatment scheme. Meanwhile, through the operation on the multi-step function, the present application realizes the function of adding the first treatment step at any treatment step position of the treatment stage, so that the addition process of the first treatment step is more clear, and the doctor can add the corresponding first treatment step according to the condition of the patient without frequently interacting with a designer on how to add the first treatment step, which can improve the design efficiency of the tooth treatment scheme.

[0010] In a possible implementation, the client further displays a first pop-up window in response to an opening operation on the multi-step function, the first pop-up window comprises at least one candidate area of at least one treatment stage in the first tooth treatment scheme, and the candidate area is used for guiding addition of at least one candidate treatment step position of the first treatment step; in response to an operation on the candidate area of the multi-step function, a first control of the candidate first treatment step is displayed, the first control is used for indicating an operation on a step number of the first treatment step; and in response to an operation on the first control, the step number of the first treatment step is determined.

[0048] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the drawings.

[0049] In the following embodiments of the present application, “and / or” describes the association relationship of associated objects, which means that there can be three kinds of relationships, for example, A and / or B can mean that A exists alone, A and B exist together, and B exists alone, where A and B can be singular or plural. The character “ / ” generally means that the associated objects before and after it are in a “or” relationship. “At least one of the following (one)” or similar expressions means any combination of these items, including any combination of single item (one) or multiple items. For example, at least one of a, b or c can mean a, b, c, a-b, a-c, b-c or a-b-c, where a, b and c can be single or multiple. The singular expressions “one”, “a kind of”, “the above” and “this” are intended to also include expressions such as “one or more”, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. In addition, unless otherwise stated, the ordinal numbers “first”, “second” and the like mentioned in the embodiments of the present application are used to distinguish multiple objects, and are not used to limit the order, time sequence, priority or importance of the multiple objects.

[0050] Reference within the specification of this application to "one embodiment" or "some embodiments" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment is included in at least one embodiment. The appearances of the phrase "in one embodiment" or "in some embodiments" in various places within specified descriptions in this specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment, however, can mean one or more but not all embodiments. The terms "including," "comprising," "featuring," and variations thereof are meant to encompass the items listed thereafter and equivalents thereof as well as additional items. Although the terms "comprise," "comprising," "include," "including," and "includes" have been used in the detailed description, these terms are open-ended, and for the purposes of the specification, specifically allow for "comprising," "including," and "includes" of additional features in other embodiments.

[0051] As background, more and more people tend to choose invisible tooth correction as the preferred method of tooth correction. Since invisible tooth correction usually customizes a personalized tooth correction plan for the patient, in order to maintain the correction effect of the teeth and improve the comfort of the patient, passive tooth correctors may be worn in some correction stages to maintain the current correction effect of the teeth.

[0052] Specifically, the manufacturing method of the tooth corrector is shown in FIG. 1. First, the teeth of the patient are scanned to obtain the tooth state data of the patient. Then, a series of corrections are made to the tooth state data of the patient based on manual correction by a doctor or other operator, and a tooth correction plan for the patient is generated. After the doctor or other operator fully communicates with a tooth correction designer according to the tooth correction plan, multiple addition requirements of the passive tooth corrector are proposed, and the tooth correction designer models the tooth state data according to these requirements and the tooth correction plan to obtain a corrected digital tooth model. Further, based on the digital tooth model, a corresponding physical tooth model is manufactured using a numerical control machine tool processing method or a rapid prototyping method, and a corresponding tooth corrector is pressed according to the physical tooth model. In this way, a corresponding tooth corrector can be generated according to the tooth condition of the patient. However, in terms of the addition of passive tooth correctors, the doctor and the designer need to communicate about the addition position and the addition quantity of the passive tooth corrector, which reduces the efficiency of generating the tooth corrector according to the tooth correction plan and prolongs the cycle, thereby reducing the design efficiency of the invisible tooth corrector. In the correction process, if the number of passive correctors needs to be increased or decreased, the doctor needs to make a corresponding judgment, confirm with the patient, and then communicate with the designer to determine a new correction plan, which also reduces the design efficiency of the tooth corrector and slows down the production speed. Further, when adding passive correctors, the digital model of the teeth cannot reflect the complete tooth correction cycle after the update, so the user cannot intuitively feel the duration of each tooth correction step and the wearing period of the passive tooth corrector.

[0053] Based on this, the embodiment of the present application provides a display method of a tooth correction scheme, which improves the generation rate of the tooth correction scheme by displaying a first tooth correction scheme of a patient on a first operation interface and updating the first tooth correction scheme to obtain a second tooth correction scheme according to a multi-pressure step function operation. The flow of the display method of the tooth correction scheme provided by the embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. 2. The method can be executed through the interaction of a client and a server. The client can be understood as a computer or the like, and the server can be understood as a server or the like. In the following step flow, the client mentioned is the client (i.e., client 1) of an operator such as a doctor, rather than the client (i.e., client 2) of a tooth correction scheme designer. The present application does not specifically limit this. The method is specifically executed as follows.

[0054] In step 201, the client displays a first tooth correction scheme of a patient on a first interface.

[0055] The first tooth correction scheme includes a treatment plan of at least one correction stage of the patient's teeth moving from an initial position to a final position; the first interface includes a display area of a digital tooth model of the patient and a display area of a correction step corresponding to the treatment plan.

[0056] Specifically, the operator such as a doctor first obtains a tooth data form of the patient according to the oral cavity scanning of the patient, and generates a tooth correction design request corresponding to the tooth data form. Then, the tooth correction design request is informed to the tooth correction scheme designer (for example, the tooth correction scheme designer is informed through a telephone, an email or the like, or the tooth correction design requirement is input by the doctor on the client 1, the tooth correction design request is uploaded to the server by the client 1, the tooth correction design requirement is transmitted to the client 2 of the tooth correction scheme designer by the server, and only an example is shown and not specifically limited herein). The tooth correction scheme designer designs the tooth correction scheme according to the corresponding tooth correction design request, determines the first tooth correction scheme, inputs the first tooth correction scheme through the client 2, uploads the first tooth correction scheme to the server by the client 2, and sends the first tooth correction scheme to the client 1 for the operator such as a doctor to view. The first tooth correction scheme includes at least one treatment stage of the patient's teeth moving and the final position of the patient's teeth after moving. It should be noted that the client 1 obtaining the first tooth correction scheme is only an example. The first tooth correction scheme can also be directly input by the doctor on the client 1 after the doctor obtains the first tooth correction scheme through offline or other ways, or the first tooth correction scheme can be obtained online through other ways. The present application does not limit this.

[0057] Further, the first interface is configured to display a digital tooth model of the patient and a region corresponding to a treatment step in the first tooth treatment plan obtained according to the oral scanning data of the patient. The first interface is shown in FIG. 3, which includes a digital tooth model region 301, an operation region 302, a treatment step display region 303, a view angle switching region 304, and a multi-pass step function region 305. The digital tooth model region 301 is configured to display the digital tooth model of the patient to the operator (e.g., a doctor, which can be understood by a designer according to the present disclosure, and the following description will not be repeated) and the patient. The digital tooth model is obtained by 3D modeling according to the oral scanning data of the patient, and can be rotated at multiple angles by dragging with a mouse, moving after selection by a keyboard, and the like. Alternatively, different digital tooth model view angles can be selected by the view angle switching region 304 for observation and interaction. The operation region 302 includes a plurality of operable options for the digital tooth model. The client can send different operation requirements to the server by clicking or the like on the corresponding buttons in the operation region 302, and generate different responses according to different instructions from the server. For example, by clicking the multi-pass step (Passive Aligners, PA) button, the first treatment step in the treatment step display region 303 can be hidden or displayed. The multi-pass step function region 305 is configured to invoke a multi-pass step function interface to add or modify the first treatment step. For example, by clicking the multi-pass step function region 305, the server sends a multi-pass step function instruction, and the client responds to the multi-pass step function operation and displays the corresponding multi-pass step function interface.

[0058] The treatment step display region 303 includes at least one treatment step in at least one treatment stage in the tooth treatment plan of the patient, and is configured to visually display all processes of the tooth treatment stage to the operator and the patient, so as to facilitate the operator to select the corresponding stage for operation. It should be noted that these regions are only a preferred embodiment, and other regions for visual operation of the tooth treatment plan can also exist, such as an operator information display region, a patient information display region, a treatment plan display region, and the like, which are not limited in the present disclosure.

[0059] In step 202, the client displays a first operation interface in response to the multi-pass step function operation.

[0060] The first operation interface is configured to guide the addition of the first treatment step at a position corresponding to at least one treatment step in at least one treatment stage in the first tooth treatment plan, and the first treatment step is configured to maintain the current treatment position of the teeth of the patient.

[0061] Specifically, the first dental treatment plan includes a plurality of different treatment stages, and each treatment stage has different functions; for example, the first dental treatment plan can include an initial stage, which indicates a stage in which the patient has not yet worn a dental appliance for dental treatment; a dental treatment stage, which indicates a stage in which the patient wears a dental appliance for dental treatment, and the position of the patient's teeth is moved with the dental appliance; and an overcorrection stage, which indicates a stage in which the patient's teeth are stabilized at the target moving position during the dental treatment. In order to ensure that these dental treatment stages can effectively treat the teeth, it is usually necessary to add corresponding multi-step operations during these stages. The multi-step operation usually indicates the operation generated by the first treatment step, which indicates the use of a passive dental appliance to fix the position of the teeth.

[0062] In one possible implementation, the client displays a first pop-up window in response to an opening operation of the multi-step function; the opening operation of the multi-step function is realized by an operation on the multi-step function area 305. For example, the opening operation of the multi-step function can be performed by an operator clicking the multi-step function button in the multi-step function area 305, or by the operator clicking the multi-step function button in the option bar after the corresponding dental treatment step or digital dental model, and the present application does not limit this. The first pop-up window includes at least one candidate area of at least one treatment stage in the first dental treatment plan, and the candidate area is used to indicate at least one candidate treatment step position of the first treatment step. The client displays a first control of the candidate first treatment step in response to an operation on the candidate area of the multi-step function, and the first control is used to indicate an operation on the number of treatment steps of the first treatment step. The client determines the number of steps of the first treatment step in response to an operation on the first control.

[0063] Specifically, as shown in the following FIG. 4, when the multi-step opening operation 401 is clicked, the client displays a first pop-up window 402 in response to the opening operation of the multi-step function, and the first pop-up window 402 includes a candidate area 404 and a first control 403; the candidate area 404 is a candidate area in which the first treatment step can be added in the first dental treatment plan of the teeth; when the operator operates in the candidate area, for example, when the operator clicks the corresponding candidate area with the mouse, or when the operator keeps the mouse on the corresponding candidate area for a long time, the first control 403 is displayed; it should be noted that the above-mentioned opening method of the first control is only an example, and the first control can also be opened by other methods, for example, by setting a first control opening button, or directly displaying the first control when the first pop-up window is opened, and the present application does not limit this. When the first control 403 is popped up, the operator can click the first control 403 to add the first treatment step in the corresponding candidate area of the first dental treatment plan.

[0064] Further, the first pop-up window 402 also displays other content, for example, the first pop-up window 402 prompts that the step is a Passive Aligner operation; the first pop-up window 402 prompts that at most five first correction steps can be added; the first pop-up window 402 prompts a cancel operation and a new setting operation, etc. It should be noted that the content displayed by the above first pop-up window 402 is only some examples, and the application does not limit the displayed content, and other content can also be displayed, for example, an operation of locking the currently added first correction step, etc., which is not limited by the application. At the same time, the above at most five first correction steps are only an example, and the application does not limit this.

[0065] In a possible implementation, the candidate region includes at least one of: after the second correction step, after the third correction step, before the second correction step, or before the third correction step; wherein the second correction step is a step of the patient wearing the dental appliance for the first time, that is, the initial stage; and the third correction step is a step of the teeth being in the final position, that is, the dental correction stage.

[0066] By setting the positions before and after the second correction step and the third correction step as the candidate region for adding the first correction step, by setting the candidate region before the second correction step, that is, before the patient wears the dental appliance for the first time, the patient can better adapt to the dental appliance before the dental correction; by setting the candidate region after the second correction step, that is, after the patient wears the dental appliance for the first time, the position of the teeth after the dental correction is more stable; by setting the candidate region before the third correction step, that is, before the step of the teeth being in the final position, it can be ensured that the teeth of the patient can reach the specified position after correction; by setting the candidate region after the third correction step, that is, after the step of the teeth being in the final position, it can be ensured that the teeth of the patient can be kept in the specified position after correction.

[0067] In a possible implementation, the candidate region further includes: after the fourth correction step or before the fourth correction step, the fourth correction step being a step of overcorrection of the teeth of the patient, that is, the overcorrection stage; wherein the overcorrection stage can also be referred to as the tight dentition stage, and setting the first correction step after the stage can stabilize the teeth at the target position.

[0068] By setting the candidate region before the fourth correction step, that is, before the step of the teeth being in the final position, the operation of overcorrecting the teeth can be implemented; by setting the candidate region after the fourth correction step, that is, after the step of the teeth being in the final position, the final position of the teeth can be stabilized, and the effect of the dental correction can be ensured.

[0069] In a possible implementation, the candidate region includes any treatment stage in the first tooth treatment plan. Specifically, the candidate region can also be set in any treatment stage in the first treatment plan, for example, the candidate region can be set in the middle of the third treatment step, that is, in the middle of the tooth treatment stage. In this way, the position of tooth movement can be controlled to avoid the position of tooth movement not meeting the treatment expectation. The present application realizes the self-defined configuration of the treatment plan by adding the first treatment step at any position, and meets different treatment needs of different patients.

[0070] In a possible implementation, the candidate region is determined according to at least one of the following trigger conditions: a use requirement of the patient, an adjustment of the first treatment plan, or a tooth treatment state of the patient.

[0071] Specifically, the candidate region can not only be increased according to the use requirement of the patient to meet different treatment needs of different patients, but also be adjusted according to the adjustment of the first treatment plan to speed up the modification process of the treatment plan, or be selected according to the tooth treatment state of the patient to ensure that the tooth treatment result of the patient meets the expectation of the patient.

[0072] In step 203, the client updates the display mode of the treatment step corresponding to the treatment plan according to the added first treatment step in response to the adding operation of the first treatment step, and displays the second tooth treatment plan on the first interface.

[0073] In a possible implementation, the second tooth treatment plan includes the first tooth treatment plan to which the first treatment step is added.

[0074] In a possible implementation, when the operator clicks the first interface including the second tooth treatment plan, the server sends a corresponding instruction to the client, and the client responds to the first operation on the second tooth treatment plan and judges the trigger condition met by the page after the first operation; when it is determined that the first trigger condition is met, the second interface is displayed; the second interface includes: a display region of the digital tooth model of the patient and a display region of the step bar of any treatment step in the second tooth treatment plan; the first trigger condition includes at least one of the following: a flow selection operation of the second tooth treatment plan or a stage display requirement of the second tooth treatment plan.

[0075] Specifically, the second interface is shown in FIG. 5, which includes a digital tooth model 501 of the patient, a step bar area 502 of the second tooth treatment plan; or, the second interface can also include other parts, such as an operation area 503 and a view angle switching area 504, a multi-pressure step function area 505, etc.; wherein the step bar area 502 contains all the treatment steps in the second tooth treatment plan, which are arranged in the order of the tooth treatment period before and after. For example, if the period of each treatment step is 2 weeks, the part marked with the number 1 in the step bar is the tooth treatment step performed in the first two weeks, the part marked with the number 2 is the tooth treatment step performed in the third to fourth weeks, etc.

[0076] Further, in the process of tooth treatment, the second treatment step is usually regarded as the initial step, and the third and fourth treatment steps are regarded as treatment steps with movement, while the first treatment step is regarded as a treatment step without movement because it needs to keep the teeth in a fixed position; wherein the movement is the movement of the position of the teeth after tooth treatment. In the step bar 502, the second and first treatment steps do not have movement, so they are usually represented by gray; while the third and fourth treatment steps have movement, so they are usually represented by dark color; as shown in FIG. 5, the part marked with the number 0 is the initial step of tooth treatment, i.e. the second treatment step; the part marked with the number 1 is the first treatment step after the second treatment step, which is used to adapt the patient to the tooth treatment device before the patient performs tooth treatment; the parts marked with the numbers 2-5 are the tooth treatment stage, i.e. the third treatment step, which is used to move the teeth to the target position after tooth treatment; the parts marked with the numbers 6-8 are the first treatment step after the third treatment step, which is used to stabilize the teeth at the target position by wearing a passive treatment device for a certain period of time after the teeth are moved to the target position, to ensure the result of tooth treatment; the parts marked with the numbers 9-12 are the tooth overcorrection stage, i.e. the fourth treatment step, which is used to determine that the teeth have been moved to the target position; and the part marked with the number 13 is the first treatment step after the fourth treatment step, which is used to stabilize the position of the teeth after tooth overcorrection, to ensure the final result of tooth treatment. By using the step bar, the steps of the second tooth treatment plan are sequentially displayed on the second interface, so that the operator can jump to the corresponding tooth treatment step by clicking any treatment step in the second tooth treatment plan, thereby providing the operator and the patient with a clear and complete second tooth treatment plan process.

[0077] In a possible implementation, the first trigger condition comprises a flow selection operation of the second tooth correction scheme, for example, by selecting an operation of displaying the second tooth correction scheme in the operation area 503, the digital tooth model and the step bar of the second tooth correction scheme are displayed on the second interface; or the first trigger condition further comprises a stage display requirement of the second tooth correction scheme, for example, the server sends a display requirement of the second tooth correction scheme to the client, and the client displays on the second interface in response to the requirement. It should be noted that the first trigger condition can also include other contents, for example, the second tooth correction scheme can be displayed by clicking the right mouse button at the step bar or the digital tooth model, and selecting the corresponding operation of displaying the second tooth correction scheme in the right mouse button option bar, which is not limited in the present application.

[0078] In this way, all correction steps of the second tooth correction scheme are displayed on the second interface for the operator and the patient to browse and operate; a more clear visualization platform is provided for the tooth correction scheme, and the efficiency of adding a new first correction step is also improved.

[0079] In a possible implementation, the client displays a third interface in response to the second operation on the second tooth correction scheme, and when it is determined that the second trigger condition is met, the third interface comprises a display area of the digital tooth model of the patient and a display area of the step bar of part of the first correction steps in the second tooth correction scheme, and the second trigger condition comprises at least one of the following: a selection operation of the first correction step, or a stage display requirement of the first correction step.

[0080] Specifically, the third interface is shown in FIG. 6, which includes a digital tooth model 601 of a patient, a display area 602 of a step bar of a first treatment step in a second tooth treatment plan; or, the second interface can further include other parts, such as an operation area 603 and a view angle switching area 604, a multi-pressure step function area 605, etc.; wherein the step bar area 602 of the first treatment step contains part of the first treatment step in the second tooth treatment plan, which is arranged in the order of the tooth treatment period before and after. For example, in addition to displaying the second treatment step, the third treatment step and the fourth treatment step, the first treatment step can only display the first treatment step located after the third treatment step and before the fourth treatment step, or only display the first treatment step located after the second treatment step, or only display the first treatment step located after the fourth treatment step; taking FIG. 6 as an example, in addition to displaying the second treatment step, the third treatment step and the fourth treatment step, FIG. 6 only displays an embodiment schematic diagram of the first treatment step located after the third treatment step and before the fourth treatment step; for example, if the first treatment step in the second tooth treatment plan is the 1st, 6th-7th and 13th step, wherein the first treatment step located after the third treatment step and before the fourth treatment step is the 6th-7th step, therefore the step bar display area 602 includes the second treatment step 0 representing the initial step, the third treatment step 2-5 representing the tooth treatment stage, the first treatment step 6-7 representing the multi-pressure step and the fourth treatment step 8-11 representing the overcorrection stage.

[0081] Further, the hidden first treatment step can be displayed by prompting, for example, the hidden first treatment step 1 and the first treatment step 12 are displayed in the corresponding position of the step bar by the way of superscript for the operator to view. It should be noted that the above-mentioned way is only an example, and the position of the hidden first treatment step can also be prompted by other ways, for example, by a light-colored step bar, or the position of the hidden first treatment step can not be prompted, which is not limited in the present application.

[0082] In a possible implementation, the position of the first treatment step that can be added can also be prompted in the step bar area 602; as shown in FIG. 6, there is a region between the first treatment step 7 and the fourth treatment step 8, which is a region where the first treatment step can be added, therefore the step bar area 602 displays the region where the first treatment step can be added by the way of a dashed step bar, so as to prompt the operator that the corresponding region can add the first treatment step; it should be noted that the above-mentioned dashed step bar is only an example, and the position of the first treatment step that can be added can also be prompted by other ways, for example, the position of the first treatment step that can be added can also be marked by the way of a light-colored superscript, etc., which is not limited in the present application.

[0083] Further, the second trigger condition comprises a selection operation of the first treatment step, for example, by selecting a part of the multi-pressure step operation in the second dental treatment plan in the operation area 603, and specifically selecting the area of the first treatment step to be displayed, the digital dental model of the second dental treatment plan and the step bar containing the first treatment step are displayed on the third interface; or the second trigger condition also comprises the requirement of stage display of the first treatment step, for example, the server sends the requirement of display of the first treatment step to the client, and the client displays on the third interface in response to the requirement. It should be noted that the second trigger condition can also contain other contents, for example, the right mouse button can be clicked on the step bar or the digital dental model, and the corresponding operation of displaying the first treatment step can be selected in the right mouse button option bar, which is not limited in the present application.

[0084] In this way, the present application separately displays part of the first treatment step in the second dental treatment plan, provides clearer wearing period of the passive dental appliance for the patient, and at the same time, provides the operator such as the doctor with the progress of the second dental treatment plan according to the wearing period of the passive dental appliance, so as to timely and efficiently obtain the dental treatment plan of the patient.

[0085] In a possible implementation, the client displays a fourth interface in response to the third operation on the second dental treatment plan, and when it is determined that the third trigger condition is met, the fourth interface comprises: a display area of the digital dental model of the patient and a display area of the step bar of the second dental treatment plan without the first treatment step, and the third trigger condition comprises at least one of the following: a hiding operation of the first treatment step, or a requirement of tooth deviation comparison analysis of the patient's dental treatment stage.

[0086] Specifically, the fourth interface is shown in FIG. 7, which comprises a digital dental model 701 of the patient and a display area 702 of the step bar of the second dental treatment plan without the first treatment step; or the second interface can also comprise other parts, for example, an operation area 703, a view angle switching area 704, a multi-pressure step function area 705, etc.; wherein the display area 702 of the step bar contains the initial step and all the treatment steps with movement in the second dental treatment plan, i.e. the second treatment step, the third treatment step and the fourth treatment step, which are arranged in the order of the tooth treatment period. For example, according to FIG. 5, it can be found that the second treatment step in the second dental treatment plan is the area of the 0th step, the third treatment step is the area of the 2nd-5th step, and the fourth treatment step is the area of the 9th-12th step; therefore, the step bar display area 702 comprises the second treatment step 0 representing the initial step, the third treatment step 2-5 representing the tooth treatment stage, and the fourth treatment step 9-12 representing the overcorrection stage. It should be noted that since only the second treatment step, the third treatment step and the fourth treatment step are present in the fourth interface, the fourth interface is used to display the part of the dental treatment plan that needs to wear the dental appliance.

[0087] Further, the third trigger condition includes a hiding operation of the first orthodontic step, for example, by selecting a hiding operation of the multi-pressure step in the second dental orthodontic plan in the operation area 703, the digital dental model of the second dental orthodontic plan and the step bar containing the first orthodontic step are hidden; or, the second trigger condition further includes a dental deviation comparison analysis requirement of the dental orthodontic stage, for example, when the patient or the doctor needs to perform a comparison analysis of the dental orthodontic stage, the server sends a dental deviation comparison analysis requirement of the dental orthodontic stage to the client, and the client displays the fourth interface in response to the requirement. It should be noted that the third trigger condition can also contain other contents, for example, the first orthodontic step can be hidden by clicking the right mouse button on the step bar or the digital dental model, and selecting the corresponding operation of hiding the first orthodontic step in the right mouse button option bar, which is not limited in the present application.

[0088] In this way, the first orthodontic step for maintaining the stability of the tooth position is hidden, and only the steps with a moving amount, that is, the steps in which the teeth will move, are displayed in the dental orthodontic plan, so as to realize the detection of the wearing condition of the dental orthodontic device of the patient in each period; at the same time, each stage of the dental orthodontic plan can be more clearly displayed to the patient, which is not only convenient for the manufacture of the dental orthodontic device, but also facilitates the patient to understand the period of the dental orthodontic treatment.

[0089] In a possible implementation, the client sends the adding operation of the first orthodontic step to the server in response to the adding operation of the first orthodontic step; when the adding operation does not satisfy the first condition, a first response message from the server is received, and an interface of the first response message is displayed. Or, when the adding operation does not satisfy the second condition, a second response message from the server is received, and an interface of the second response message is displayed; wherein the first response message is that the dental orthodontic device product design scheme requirement is exceeded; the second response message is that the step number of the first orthodontic step exceeds the step number limit threshold.

[0090] Specifically, the interface of the first response message is shown in FIG. 8. When the adding operation does not satisfy the first condition, i.e., does not satisfy the requirement of the product design scheme of the dental appliance, the server sends the first response message to the client, and the client receives the first response message from the server and displays the interface of the first response message. For example, the first condition is generally the number of steps limited by the product design scheme of the dental appliance. For example, the product design scheme of a patient includes 10 dental appliances (including passive appliances), and the patient uses 3 dental appliances in the third and fourth steps, respectively. Then, the remaining 4 dental appliances in the scheme can be used to add the first step. At this time, if the number of the first steps selected by the multi-press step operation is greater than 4, it is considered that the adding operation does not satisfy the first condition, and the first control plus sign in the first response message interface is grayed out and cannot be selected, so as to avoid the operator from continuing to increase the first step. The first response message interface is used to prompt the patient of the defects of the current product design scheme of the dental appliance, and prompt the patient that the current multi-press step operation will generate additional costs. It should be noted that the above scheme is only an example, and other dental appliance schemes can also exist, which are not limited in the present application.

[0091] Further, the interface of the second response message is shown in FIG. 9. When the adding operation does not satisfy the second condition, i.e., does not satisfy the step number limit threshold, the server sends the second response message to the client, and the client receives the second response message from the server and displays the interface of the second response message. The first control plus sign in the second response message interface is grayed out and cannot be selected, so as to avoid the operator from continuing to increase the first step. For example, the second condition is generally the step number limit threshold of the first step added by the multi-press step operation. As shown in FIG. 9, generally, the operator is set to add at most five steps of the first step. The operator can improve the number of added first steps by logging in with a white list user account or an administrator user account, etc. When the number of added first steps has reached the step number limit threshold, the interface of the second response message is displayed, and it is prompted that the increase of the first step cannot be continued. It should be noted that the above five steps are only an example, and the limit threshold of the first step is determined by the operator according to the patient's own situation, the supply of the dental appliance, etc. The white list account and the administrator account are only examples, which are not limited in the present application.

[0092] In a possible implementation, the operation of the multi-press step function is triggered based on at least one of the following conditions: the movement of the patient's teeth, or the wearing of the patient's dental appliance.

[0093] The application operates the multi-pressure step function according to the movement of the teeth of the patient or the wearing of the appliance, which can ensure that the movement of the teeth of the patient meets the expected movement of the correction, and can also ensure that the first correction step is increased or modified according to the wearing of the dental appliance.

[0094] Based on the same technical concept, the embodiment of the application provides a manufacturing method of a dental appliance. The manufacturing method of the dental appliance is performed by a flow of a display method of a dental correction scheme. The method is executed by a computing device, which can be understood as a computer or the like. The flow of the method is shown in FIG. 10.

[0095] In step 1001, the computing device obtains oral scanning data of a target object.

[0096] Firstly, the computing device determines the information in the oral cavity of the target object by scanning the oral cavity of the target object by X-ray, nuclear magnetic resonance or the like. Then, the corresponding oral scanning data and digital oral model are generated according to the information in the oral cavity. The digital dental model is presented by a patch modeling method, wherein each tooth surface is composed of a plurality of triangular patches.

[0097] In step 1002, the computing device determines a first dental correction scheme of the patient based on the oral scanning data.

[0098] Specifically, after obtaining the digital dental model, the computing device determines the target position of the final movement of the teeth of the patient according to the digital dental model of the patient, and designs a special dental correction scheme for the teeth of the patient according to the target position and the current position.

[0099] In step 1003, the computing device adds a first correction step to the first dental correction scheme to obtain a second dental correction scheme when a multi-pressure step adding condition is met.

[0100] The first correction step is used to maintain the current correction position of the teeth of the patient.

[0101] Specifically, the multi-pressure step adding condition is determined in response to the operation of the client to the multi-pressure step function after the client displays an operation interface for adding the first correction step in the first dental correction scheme.

[0102] In step 1004, the computing device manufactures a dental appliance corresponding to one or more correction steps in the second dental correction scheme according to the second dental correction scheme.

[0103] In an embodiment, the application selects a manufacturing method of the dental appliance according to different needs of the patient; for example, if the patient is a patient who cannot frequently return to the hospital for reexamination due to going abroad or the like, all dental appliances of all stages of treatment can be manufactured at one time according to the second dental treatment plan to avoid the situation that the patient cannot be present; or if the patient is a patient who needs to delay the stage of dental treatment due to surgery or the like, only part of the dental appliances can be provided at one time according to the second treatment plan, and the remaining dental appliances can be provided when the patient has time. In this way, the application not only reduces the determination and manufacturing period of the dental appliance, but also provides a personalized selection space for the customer, so that the customer's dental treatment process is more convenient.

[0104] In a specific embodiment, the SLA method is used to manufacture the solid tooth model. Specifically, in order to manufacture the solid tooth model, based on the polymerization reaction of photosensitive resin, under the control of a computer, a laser scans the liquid resin point by point along the profile of each layer of the tooth model, so that the scanned thin layer of resin generates a polymerization reaction, gradually forms a line from a point, and finally forms a solidified cross section of a thin layer of the solid tooth model, and the resin that is not scanned remains in the original liquid state. When a layer is solidified, the lifting platform moves a layer thickness distance, and a new layer of liquid resin is covered on the surface of the resin that has been solidified in the previous layer to perform the scanning and solidification again. The newly solidified layer is firmly bonded to the previous layer, and the cycle is repeated until the entire solid tooth model is manufactured. Then, the part is placed under high-intensity ultraviolet light to complete the solidification process, so as to obtain the solid tooth model, which is a positive model or male mold for manufacturing the dental appliance.

[0105] Further, the method for manufacturing the dental appliance can include: by means of a hot press forming device, forming a shell on the solid tooth model by pressing the appliance film piece composed of transparent polymer material (a polymer with elasticity, such as polycarbonate) through the positive pressure film pressing technology, so as to manufacture the dental appliance; or the method for manufacturing the dental appliance can also include: by means of a 3D printing device, modeling and printing the invisible dental appliance according to the digital tooth model in the second dental treatment plan. However, the method for manufacturing the appliance based on the tooth model provided by the application is not limited to hot press forming or 3D printing, and other methods can also be used to manufacture the dental appliance based on the solid tooth model.

[0106] Based on the same technical concept, FIG. 11 exemplarily shows a display device of a dental treatment plan provided by an embodiment of the application, which can execute the flow of the display method of the dental treatment plan.
