Toward accurate tooth segmentation from computed tomography images using a hybrid level set model

Purpose: A three‐dimensional (3D) model of the teeth provides important information for orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning. Tooth segmentation is an essential step in generating the 3D digital model from computed tomography (CT) images. The aim of this study is to develop an accurate and e...
