  • Title: CAD/CAM fabricated complete dentures: concepts and clinical methods of obtaining required morphological data.
    Author: Goodacre CJ, Garbacea A, Naylor WP, Daher T, Marchack CB, Lowry J.
    Journal: J Prosthet Dent; 2012 Jan; 107(1):34-46. PubMed ID: 22230914.
    Abstract:
    The clinical impression procedures described in this article provide a method of recording the morphology of the intaglio and cameo surfaces of complete denture bases and also identify muscular and phonetic locations for the prosthetic teeth. When the CAD/CAM technology for fabricating complete dentures becomes commercially available, it will be possible to scan the denture base morphology and tooth positions recorded with this technique and import those data into a virtual tooth arrangement program where teeth can be articulated and then export the data to a milling device for the fabrication of the complete dentures. A prototype 3-D tooth arrangement program is described in this article that serves as an example of the type of program than can be used to arrange prosthetic teeth virtually as part of the overall CAD/CAM fabrication of complete dentures.
