Dental Prosthesis UI With Wheel Menus for Faster 3D CAD Design
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The increasing amount of data required for prosthesis design using three-dimensional CAD software has led to a significant increase in time and resources needed for designing dental prostheses, as users must input and interact with various types of data during the design process.
Innovation Solution
A user interface with intuitive menus, including first and second wheel menus and first and second tool menus, is provided to facilitate the generation and modification of prostheses, allowing for efficient and accurate prosthesis manufacturing by displaying relevant items and options adjacent to the target tooth, enabling quick and efficient prosthesis manufacturing processes.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Manufacturing precision
If traditional manual prosthesis manufacturing is replaced with three-dimensional CAD software, then manufacturing precision and design capability are improved, but the amount of data input required and time consumption increase significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs automatic tooth identification and classification by analyzing three-dimensional oral data itself, without requiring manual input from the user. The computer automatically determines tooth types, generates prosthesis designs, and presents options to the user, allowing the system to serve itself in the data processing and decision-making steps
Solution Approach 2:
The system automatically performs preliminary actions including tooth identification, classification, and prosthesis design generation before the user needs to make decisions. By pre-processing the oral data and preparing design options in advance, the system eliminates the need for users to manually input extensive data during the design process
2Reliability
If comprehensive data input is required for prosthesis design, then design completeness and accuracy are improved, but user operation complexity and time requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically collects and processes all necessary data for complete prosthesis design by analyzing the three-dimensional oral data itself. It performs tooth identification, classification, and design generation without requiring users to manually input various data types, thus maintaining design completeness while greatly simplifying user operation
Solution Approach 2:
The system acts as an intermediary between the raw oral data and the final prosthesis design. It automatically processes the three-dimensional scan data, identifies teeth, classifies them, and generates design options, serving as an intelligent mediator that handles the complex data transformation process without direct user involvement in each step
Data Source
AI summary
A method for providing a user interface for manufacturing a prosthesis includes identifying teeth from three-dimensional oral data of a patient, displaying a target tooth for a prosthesis manufacturing among the teeth on a screen in a selectable state by a user, displaying a first wheel menu for generation of the prosthesis for the target tooth for dental work or data removal operation, and displaying a first tool menu providing items for the generation of the prosthesis corresponding to the target tooth for dental work on the screen.
