Frontal Segmentation and Bite Descriptor API
🔹 Description:
This API analyzes intraoral frontal images to segment individual teeth and calculate bite-related measurements. By applying post-processing techniques to the segmented contours, the API identifies and classifies the bite type (e.g., Deep Bite, Open Bite, Normal Bite), and provides quantitative bite depth in millimeters.
🦷 What is the purpose of this API?
• To automatically segment anterior teeth from frontal intraoral images.
• To classify the bite condition (e.g., Deep Bite, Normal, Open Bite).
• To compute the overbite measurement in millimeters.
• Supports dentists and orthodontists in evaluating bite alignment and treatment planning.
🕐 When to use it?
Use this API when:
• You have intraoral frontal photos (showing upper and lower anterior teeth).
• You want to evaluate bite depth and check for malocclusion.
• You need segmented contours for visualization or further analysis.
• You aim to generate standardized bite assessments for clinical reports.
🔹 Notes:
• Bite classifications may include Normal, Deep Bite, Open Bite, etc.
• Output includes TeethContours with detailed point coordinates for each segmented tooth.
• StandardName (e.g., ICON) is used for naming conventions or styling.
• Enable PlotLabels, DrawMasks, and SaveImage to visualize results with overlayed masks and bite description.
• Ensure good lighting and clear anterior visibility for accurate bite detection.
