The University of Hong Kong reports that researchers from the Faculty of Dentistry have developed a generative AI algorithm that produces dental crowns. The team is led by Dr. James Tsoi, Associate Professor in Dental Materials Science. The technology “uses a true three-dimensional (3D) deep learning approach, producing personalized dental crowns with high accuracy that … Read more

Marginal Gaps of Porcelain Crowns by Manufacturing Technique: A Literature Survey

Zegarra-fig-1-thumbnail alternate text for this image

Introduction Over the past 40 years, dental ceramics have evolved dramatically. Ceramics are defined as non-metallic, inorganic materials manufactured by heating crystals at high temperatures. They are widely used for dental prosthetic treatments because their high resistance to compression and abrasion allows them to mimic the function of the teeth, while resisting both wear and … Read more

CEREC Zirconia Meso Block: Safest Way to Get Directly Screw-Retained Crowns

 alternate text for this image

Long-term stability and patient satisfaction – these are the main benchmarks for measuring treatment success. In the case of restorations, this success is primarily determined by the material selected. Zirconia has proven itself over the past few years for the prosthetic treatment of implants – crowns and bridges made of this material can be produced … Read more

Researchers develop software to improve attachment for dental crowns

From Dental Tribune GOTHENBURG, Sweden: Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg are currently developing a method to determine exactly how a tooth should be ground down in order to attach a dental crown to it. The method is expected to result in significantly cheaper and faster treatment, with a reduced risk of patients … Read more
