METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR THREE-DIMENSIONALLY VISUALIZING ROOT CANAL CURVATURE OF TOOTH

摘要

Disclosed are a method of and an apparatus for 3D visualization of the root canal curvature of a tooth. The method includes (a) displaying a CT image of one or more teeth on the basis of CT image data, (b) three-dimensionally rendering at least a portion of the root canal of a target tooth when a dental practitioner selects the target tooth from the CT image, and (c) visualizing a curvature in a region of the root canal that is three-dimensionally rendered using a visual factor.
