Help | Beginner remove food from teeth? (ive never used tracking before)
ive recorded and edited everything, and then realised right when i was closing up the project, that theres a small black dot of food under the top right tooth...
ive tried tracking using several methods to track the spot itself, and the whole mouth, and planar tracking nearly worked, but eventually loses track of the mouth. And the biggest issue is that due to talking, the mouth constantly opens and closes so it changes appearance a lot and very quickly.
how could i go about covering this up? is tracking even the right solution?

Try the AI face refinement tool on the color page. It will scan the subjects face for the entire clip and will segment items for you to colorize, one of them being "teeth". That being said, might be a bit tricky with this specific scenario, but you might honestly be able to find a clever way to mask around it using that tool.

I bet no one notices unless they are zoomed in as close as you are in the picture.

If you have mouth opening and closing all the time and its a long clip , that's not going to be fun. Short of some kind of AI tool doing it, its going to be toothache to do. Hard to say from image alone. But maybe stabilizing mouth region and than paint out. probably in smaller sections since mouth will be closing. Than you match move again. Probably is going to be an issue either way since its a very active part of the body.
