Could you build this?

Partial The UI and viewer can be built with Three.js, but producing medically accurate, anatomically precise 3D models of all 32 teeth with layered internal anatomy requires professional medical 3D modeling expertise.

What it would actually take: Requires a WebGL/Three.js web viewer supporting layered mesh slicing, raycasting for annotation, and dental numbering logic. The bottleneck is not the software code, but the creation and verification of highly detailed, medically accurate 3D CAD/rigged anatomical assets (enamel, dentin, pulp, root canals, neurovascular bundles) verified by dental professionals.
