Digital Denture Fabrication with CAD/CAM Technology

The provided text consists of excerpts from a lecture on Digital Technology in Removable Prosthodontics, specifically focusing on the fabrication of complete dentures using CAD/CAM technology. The material outlines the aim of the digital revolution in dentistry, detailing the three primary challenges CAD/CAM was developed to solve: ensuring strength, creating a natural appearance, and making fabrication easier, faster, and more accurate. Key sections differentiate between the components of CAD/CAM (data acquisition, design, and manufacturing) and classify the available systems as either open or closed according to data sharing. Furthermore, the source discusses the advantages of CAD/CAM dentures, such as improved accuracy and reproducibility, while also addressing clinical outcomes and the challenges facing the digital workflow.
