What is Digital Dentistry?
=dental devices incorporating digital/computer controlled components for carrying out a dental procedure
What is Digitial Dental Practice?
=practice using modern technologies and incorporating digital applications exclusively
SOS
How do we do Digital Diagnosis and what are the tools?
Digital Xrays Digital Intraoral Camera Digital Impression Digital Photos Digital Spectrophotometers Facial Scanning
What’s the use of Digital Photos?
Dentist: Diagnosis Planning Documentation Communication Backup info Evaluation extra/intraorally
Lab: Color Shape Textures Tooth Size Smile Line Facial form
improves visual communication
multidisciplinary team
legal standpoint
internal & external marketing
Extraoral Marketing photos:
6 photos:
sides, 12 o’clock, smiley, occlusal, retracted
Why do we use videos?
smile line, motion, gathering info
What is the use of Digital Spectrophotometers?
determine the shade and color of dental tissues
Digital consultation importance:
patient’s acceptance
SOS
What is Cad Cam?
Cad=Computer Aided Design
-use of computer and software to create, modify and analyse a design
Cam=Computer Aided Manufacturing
-use of software to guide the machine to produce a design according to CAD design
Cad Cam components
- Scanning Device -software and hardware
- CAD/CAM Software
- Milling machine
SOS
Where does the efficiency of a Milling machine depend on?
of axes and burs
Milling machines Chairside Vs Laboratory:
Chairside:
• 3-4 axes
• few teeth being trimmed together
• uncomplicated restorations
Laboratory: • 5 axes • larger, faster • complicated restorations • more precise
What are the Systems of Cad Cam?
Chairside -CAD CAM
Laboratory -CAD CAM
Combination -chairside: CAD and lab: CAM
What is the Cad Cam Workflow?
- same day delivery
- instead of weeks -> hours
- thorough treatment
- enhance patient involvement
- precise, predictable implant treatment
SOS
Traditional Impression Vs Digital Impression
Traditional Impression: •voids or tears •need to capture margins •stability of impression material (unstable) •dimensional changes (shrinkage) •gagging reflex •materials are setting fast •beginners can hurt the gums
Digital Impression: better immediate feedback efficient 20 min faster no gagging reflex faster remake / repeat in sec if necessary no disinfection needed easier storage marketing tool good visualization of margins sometimes no provisional (1 visit) ability to add missing data fast; no need to retake
On which factors you can have an Immediate Feedback?
- preparation
- margins
- undercuts
- inter-occlusal clearance
- path of insertion
- repeat in seconds if necessary
What are the types of Digital scanners you know?
- Digital intraoral scanning (IOS)
- Benchtop scanning
What are the contraindications of Digital Impression?
- inability to access
* lack of patient cooperation
General benefits of Digital Impression?
- high precision
- patient comfort
- simple process
Basic rules of Digital Impression technique:
- dry field
- gum retraction
- soft tissues retraction
- good visualization of margins
- good recording of tissues affecting
Clinical guidelines for Digital Impression:
The accuracy of the final restoration can only be as good as the accuracy of the replica of the tooth preparation.
Why is an attractive method to the dentist?
decreased delivery time
What are the types of Direct Digital Manufacturing?
Subtractive
Additive
File format in Digital Workflow:
