Digital Data Management for CAD/CAM Technology. An Update of Current Systems

doi:10.1922/EJPRD_1014Andreiotelli07

Abstract - Computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology continues to rapidly evolve in the dental community. This review article provides an overview of the operational components and methodologies used with some of the CAD/CAM systems. Future trends are also discussed. While these systems show great promise, the quality of performance varies among systems. No single system currently acquires data directly in the oral cavity and produces restorations using all materials available. Further refinements of these CAD/CAM technologies may increase their capabilities, but further special training will be required for effective use.

KEY WORDS: CAD/CAM, scanning software, hardware, digitizing, dental materials.
