High-tech filming, mold taking, tooth making …… Once upon a time, we did not know that one day we would be able to sit at home and buy home a variety of items of our choice, nor did we think that oral treatment had evolved to digital and electronic. Dental experts say that digital dentistry can now do oral radiographs, take the mold are digital, CNC lathe, 3D printing to produce the right dental block, guide plate, orthodontic braces, etc. The benefit is to make oral treatment more accurate and faster. Chair-side digital restoration technology Chair-side digital restoration technology, breaking the traditional procedures of mold taking, mold filling, wax carving, porcelain, etc., the use of three-dimensional scanning, computer-aided design and production, a one-time completion of optical mold taking, design, grinding, trial wear, installation and other procedures, the whole process only takes a few hours, truly realize the “immediately wearable The whole process only takes a few hours, which can truly realize the myth of “ready-to-wear”. Before treatment: panoramic film, three-dimensional CT reconstruction, accurate collection of oral information “Previously, we can only through the dental X-ray film (referred to as dental film), to understand whether there is a problem with the teeth, but only a few teeth at a time.” A dental hospital digital oral health care experts said. Now digital oral technology can take 2D images of all the teeth, helping doctors to comprehensively analyze the situation of the whole mouth teeth. Moreover, the panoramic film can also find other dental problems at the same time and guide the prevention. In addition, through the 3D CT scan, and then through the computer to reconstruct the digital model of teeth and alveolar bone, it can replace the previous dental impressions to guide the filling, veneers, dental implants, orthodontics, orthognathic. Experts say that the previous mold taking is not environmentally friendly, difficult to preserve, and may also produce human error. And now through the computer 3D CT reconstruction, equivalent to digital taking of the mold, can be permanently saved, long-distance transmission, but also greatly save time. When treating:CNC lathe, 3D printing, faster access to treatment materials Many people have suffered from the wait between treatment and formal dental implantation before filling and setting. “Dental mold sent to the factory production processing, about a week to make this restore out of the porcelain teeth, and finally inlay or glued to the appropriate part of the mouth. Now the digital oral health care center in the office has a CNC lathe, directly into the three-dimensional information of the oral cavity, 10 minutes to automatically cut out the tooth block, immediately try on, sticky, a week of waiting time reduced to one or two hours. The hottest 3D printing is also the highlight of the digital oral cavity. This is most used in the field of dental implants. Based on digitally collected oral information, a high precision model of the upper and lower jaws can be printed out completely in 6-8 hours. The advantage of this is that it can be used by doctors for design and surgical planning, but also to help create implant guides, so that the implant process is more safe and reliable, but also more accurate. 3D printed guides can also be used for orthognathic surgery, how much bone is cut, how to cut, under the guidance of the guide is more accurate, no longer “by feeling to”. However, the current 3D printing materials have two types of tree ester and metal, clinical tree ester as the main printing material. “Not any material can be printed for clinical use, must be approved by the state.” Digital technology for oral treatment, the cost increased by 10% In fact, digital dental treatment is not a new thing, 10 years ago already, but now with more perfect equipment, the formation of a systematic and conceptualized, ultimately to make the treatment more accurate, better results, the treatment process is also more simplified, more time-saving. However, at the same time, the average cost of treatment per tooth will increase by about 10% compared to the past due to increased costs.
