In this work, a software package based on the Delaunay’s algorithm is described. The main feature of this package is the capability in applying discretization in geometric domains of teeth taking into account their complex inner structures and the materials with different hardness. Usually, the mesh generators reported in literature treat molars and other teeth by using simplified geometric models, or even considering the teeth as homogeneous structures.
