A method is described for the cost-effective tracking of mandibular movements using an open-source software program (Blender v. 4.3; Blender Foundation) in combination with video recordings and intraoral scans. Semispherical resin markers serve as reference points, synchronizing virtual cast movements from intraoral scanning. These data can be integrated into a CAD software program with facial scanning and cone beam computed tomography.

Abstract

A method is described for the cost-effective tracking of mandibular movements using an open-source software program (Blender v. 4.3; Blender Foundation) in combination with video recordings and intraoral scans. Semispherical resin markers serve as reference points, synchronizing virtual cast movements from intraoral scanning. These data can be integrated into a CAD software program with facial scanning and cone beam computed tomography.
