Abstract

The conventional denture fabrication process normally requires at least five visits, taking up considerable chairtime, encompassing multiple laboratory steps, and demanding that patients return to the office every time for treatment. Furthermore, if the denture breaks or gets lost, the fabrication process to make a new one will likely need to be started from the beginning. Today, providers can incorporate digital technology into many of the clinical steps to minimize the number of visits and procedure time needed to fabricate a complete denture. In addition, the materials are more patient friendly as there is less residual monomer in CAD/CAM milled resins. This article presents case studies that exemplify the combination of traditional clinical practices and digital methodologies to maximize efficiency in the denture fabrication process. Intraoral scanning was used to produce a denture prototype, and a traditional myofunctional impression technique was employed with the generated prototype, which was then scanned before a new, properly fitted denture was milled using 3D technology. This process is expedited in a predictable workflow that minimizes laboratory steps and chairtime, offers improved infection control, and leads to higher patient satisfaction.

结合数字技术与传统原理优化全口活动义齿治疗。
传统的假牙制作过程通常需要至少五次就诊,占用大量的椅子时间,包括多个实验室步骤,并且要求患者每次治疗都要回到办公室。此外,如果假牙断裂或丢失,制作新假牙的过程可能需要从头开始。如今,供应商可以将数字技术整合到许多临床步骤中,以最大限度地减少制作全口义齿所需的就诊次数和手术时间。此外,由于CAD/CAM铣削树脂中残留的单体较少,因此材料对患者更友好。本文介绍了案例研究,举例说明了传统临床实践和数字方法的结合,以最大限度地提高义齿制造过程的效率。使用口腔内扫描制作义齿原型,并使用传统的肌功能印模技术对生成的原型进行扫描,然后使用3D技术铣削合适的新义齿。这一过程在可预测的工作流程中加快,最大限度地减少了实验室步骤和椅子时间,提供了更好的感染控制,并导致更高的患者满意度。
