Abstract

CAD/CAM dental restoration is available as Chairside and Labside. There has been lot of developments in dental materials and computer software technology which leads to the success of CAD/CAM technology. Dental restoration can be done by two methods, both having its own advantages and limitations namely Conventional Dental Restoration, Digital (CAD/CAM) Dental Restoration. A number of CAD-CAM systems are developed for electronically designing and milling dental restorations. These systems lead to elimination in the need for impressions, temporary prostheses, and laboratory assistance. Computer Aided Design (CAD) involves use of Computers for creating projects with high accuracy. Computer aided manufacturing (CAM) process has been developed to materialize virtual objects using CAD. Virtual file can be converted into a real object using Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) which operates by a machine connected to a computer. This paper gives a brief knowledge about the uses of CAD/CAM technology in the field of dentistry such as fabrication of crowns, restoration. Developments in digital dentistry lead to better patient experience and improve the productivity and economics of the dental practice.
