A processing device receives an intraoral image of a first intraoral site anddetermines an identity of the first intraoralsite. The processing device then locks the intraoral image and selects aportion of the intraoral image depicting a portion of the firstintraoral site based at least in part on the identity of the first intraoralsite. The processing device may then generate a model comprisingthe first intraoral site based at least in part on the locked intraoral image,wherein the portion of the locked intraoral image isused for a first region of the model, and wherein data from one or moreadditional intraoral images that also depict the portion of thefirst intraoral site is not used for the first region of the model.
