Challenges, opportunities and solution for the digital - intelligent manufacturing in clinical applications of dental l restorations
【Abstract】
The development of digital technology is bringing revolutionary changes to the fabrication of oral restorations. From the oral scanning digital impression, transportation, to the design and fabricating methods of the prosthesis, have undergone changes regardless of the materials or the manufacturing process. The oral impressions has evolved from alginate or silicone impressions, and gypsum filled solid models to the digital virtual models of intraoral scanning, transportation was from packaging and postal delivery to electronic delivery; Metal frameworks are made from wax molds, lost-wax embedding and casting to the laser powder bed melting technique; Ceramic restorations range from hot-pressed casting, CAM milling to 3D printing fabrication; Complete dentures have evolved from the artificial tooth set up, wax model embedding and filling resin directly to visualized computer virtual design, 3D synthetic printing of artificial teeth and resin base. These changes require the joint efforts of researchers in the field of medicine and engineering interaction to continuously create ideals for the future of humanity. This speech focuses on the development direction and challenges faced by digital intelligent manufacturing of oral restorations today, exploring future common research content, promoting the integration of medicine and engineering, and advancing the application research of dental materials.
