CAD CAM Flashcards
CAD/CAM COMPONENTS
(1) a data unit (scanner)
(2) Software for designing digital restorations
(3) Computerized milling device
DIGITAL FABRICATION PROCESSES
1- Subtractive (milling and grinding)
2- Additive manufacturing (Rapid Prototype, RP or 3D printing)
ADVANTAGES OF CAD CAM SYSTEM
❖less time, easier , no mess
❖No gag reflex
❖No errors due to wrong tray selection
❖Preparation review
LIMITATIONS OF CAD/CAM TECHNOLOGY
1- the camera can only record what is visible to the camera lens.
2- computer error are possible .
3- cad and cam softwere can be expensive.
4- training is expensive.
Cad cam is unique because…..
final restoration with out hand working.
Cad cam axil reduction =
Depend on material, 0.5 - 1.5
Cad cam total convergence should be ..
Between 4-6
Morphology of internal line angles should be …
Rounded
Morphology of gingival margin should be ..
Either, rounded shoulder or deep chamfer.
Milling is
Type of restoration fabrication that utilities manufacturing technology from solid blocks
The milling units are categorized into
(3 axes or 4 axes or 5 axes): in which both the 4 axes and 5 axes move linearly up and down
