Dental Scope is a free, open source 3D dental learning tool for exploring teeth and surrounding structures in detail. Explore all 32 permanent teeth, switch between FDI, Universal and Palmer numbering systems, and study structures from enamel and dentin to pulp, root canals, jaws, nerves and vessels.
I started Dental Scope because I wanted dental anatomy to be easier to explore than it is through static diagrams and textbook illustrations.
The goal is to build a free, open source 3D learning environment where students can examine individual teeth, surrounding structures and clinically relevant anatomy from different angles.
The first version includes all 32 permanent teeth, FDI, Universal and Palmer numbering systems, internal tooth structures, jaws, nerves and vessels.
I’ve also been getting feedback directly from dental students and dentists, which is already shaping what gets added next.
Dental Scope is completely open source, so feedback, issues and contributions are welcome.

Well done. Quite useful for those studying dentistry. Are you a student or a teacher?
Can users hide those layers when they only want to study a specific tooth?
Is there a way to isolate individual structures like enamel pulp or nerves?
getting feedback directly from dental students and dentists is the part that'll actually make this good - most anatomy tools get built by a solo dev and never touched by the people who'd catch a wrong root canal count or a mislabeled cusp. are the dentists mostly flagging accuracy issues in the models themselves, or more the numbering/terminology conventions (FDI vs Universal vs Palmer), since those seem to vary a lot by country and dental school?
