Brief summary
Measuring the accuracy of a new technique by which root positions can be predicted at the pre-finishing stage of the comprehensive orthoodntic treatment
Detailed description
A CBCT is taken Pre-Treatment Segmentation of teeth is done from the CBCT exported as STL files and kept aside. Routine comprehensive orthodontic treatment is done till pre-finishing stage. Impression for teeth is taken at this timepoint. A cast is poured and laser scanned. Now the investigators have segmented teeth and a cast with new crown positions The investigators will superimpose the teeth on the crowns of the digital cast to obtain the Predicted Root Position (PRP) To check accuracy of this Prediction a CBCT is taken and compared to the prediction to check its accuracy.
