Zusammenfassung:	A dental scanning system and a method of visualizing and simulating the outcome of a dental procedure is provided. The system and method allows for the registration of scan data of the patient's face with scan data of the patients teeth. This allows for visualization and simulation of the outcome of a dental procedure. The system may include a device having a paddle with retroreflective targets that is held in the patient's mouth. The system may further include a helmet with retroreflective targets. The device and paddle is used in combination with a model of the user's teeth to register scans of the teeth models to the scans of the patient's face.
