A digital orthodontic arch wire design system with interactive adjustment and intelligent optimization

The design of orthodontic arch wires is a prerequisite for orthodontic treatment that determines the subsequent orthodontic effects. Current methods for designing orthodontic arch wires are often based on traditional manual techniques, which suffer from problems such as low accuracy and efficiency. To address these issues, a digital orthodontic arch wire design system has been developed using Unity 3D and C#. This system allows for the interactive adjustment and intelligent optimization of the shape of digital orthodontic arch wires. The developed system includes modules for curve design, contour construction, and collision detection of orthodontic arch wires, which can be customized interactively to meet the personalized needs of patients. In addition, an energy-constrained method is employed to optimize the shape of certain regions of the arch wire, which helps overcome distortion and interference issues caused by unreasonable interaction. The effectiveness of the developed system has been evaluated through experiments on digital design and optimization of orthodontic arch wires. Results demonstrate that the system can achieve accurate and efficient digital design of orthodontic arch wires, effectively reduce distortion, and is expected to improve the orthodontic effect.
