The 3D geometrical model was constructed using cone-beam computerized tomography (CBCT) data from a patient with a deep overbite. The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of the DaLian Stomatological Hospital (DLKQLL202302). The subject provided written informed consent. All methods were performed in accordance with the relevant guidelines and regulations.
The authors confirmed that the patient provided informed consent for data collection. The CBCT images (slice thickness 0.2 mm and pixel size 0.200 mm) were input into Mimics 20.0 software (Materialise NV, Belgium) as digital imaging and communications in medicine (DICOM) files for 3D model reconstruction. For further noise reduction and smoothing, a standard tessellation language (STL) file was input into Geomagic Studio 2014 software (3D System, USA) and NX 1911 software (Siemens, Germany).
