Introducing TrueTeethLab: create Simodont models from CBCT scans in just a few clicks

6 SEPT 2024

​​What if you could do patient specific training based on patient CBCT scans… increasing insight and realism. Or create your own high fidelity, high resolution tooth library?

Nissin introduces the TrueTeethLab software tool. From now on, CBCT or micro-CT scans (.DICOM files) can be easily converted into Simodont compatible models. This web-based tool uses an AI-trained algorithm to automatically locate and identify the different dental tissues (enamel, dentine, pulp) in the scan, each with their own haptic hardness. No scan editing is needed, it is a ‘one-click-and-go’ process: upload – convert – download.

Some benefits for users:

  • ‘Patient specific training 2.0’ with not just the correct tooth shape (.stl and .ply files) of individual patients, but with the full anatomic details offered by .DICOM files including the pulp chamber, dentin and enamel.
  • Increase insight and realism.
  • Independently create your own custom tooth- and jaw library for Simodont.

The software will initially process individual teeth (micro-CT scans) only, but later in 2024 the possibility to convert partial- & full jaw scans (patient CBCT scans) will be activated. Currently the availability is limited to Europe, but at a later moment the access will become global.

OFFICIAL RELEASE DATE: September 9th 2024, @ADEE Leuven

"Promethean Dental Systems has devised an entire curriculum centered around the inclusion of the Simodont Dental Trainer. We believe that the Simodont Dental Trainer represents a major paradigm shift in dental education. The ability to provide the student with self-instructional exercises specifically designed for each segment of the dental life cycle is something that was previously unobtainable. The life-like touch and feel of the handpiece combined with the excellent visual presentation is unsurpassed in the industry."

“The Simodont team has been very helpful in supporting the development of our haptic teaching material on the Simodont trainers. Our students gain validated simulated clinical experience far earlier in the course than was previously possible and they love the exercises. The possibilities for exploiting the high haptics for a variety of clinical simulations in the future are very exciting.”

“By tracking drill time and net score for repeated manual dexterity exercises, we were able to show evidence that practicing hand skills improves performance. Our first year students were able to practice indirect vision earlier than ever in de curriculum. Neither of these would have been practical without Simodont.”
