Cad cam dental milling

When you visit the dentist to have your crown or bridge fitted, have you ever marvelled at the precision of the dental prosthetic that they make for your teeth? The solution lies in a new player in the game, something known as CAD/CAM dental milling technology. This incredible technology enables dentists and dental labs to make accurate and effective dental restorations with the help of computers and special tools. So, without further ado, let's get into the nitty-gritty of CAD/CAM dental milling.


Precision and Efficiency in Dental Milling with CAD/CAM Technology

The CAD/CAM milling machine works similarly to a 3D printer, but instead of using additive material deposition, it’s removing material that it doesn’t need from a block, then gives it to the operator. The dental restoration is milled based on the design provided by the computer. It’s as if you had a super-precise 3D printer that could produce dental prosthetics with staggering precision.” Using CAD/CAM, dental restorations can be produced more accurately and in much less time, providing a perfect fit

Dental labs are a significant part of creating dental prosthetics for patients. Gone are the days when dental zirconia milling machine technicians had to handcraft crowns and bridges from molds and wax. It was a slow process that occasionally led to imprecise dental restorations. Yet the arrival of CAD/CAM milling machines means that dental labs are high-tech factories.
