Purpose: The purpose of this study is to compare the flexural strength of CAD/CAM denture base resins with conventional denture base resins based on their thicknesses. Materials and Methods: For the conventional denture base resins, Lucitone 199^® (C-LC) was used. DIOnavi - Denture (P-DO) and DENTCA Denture Base II (P-DC) were taken for the 3D printing denture base resins. For the prepolymerized PMMA resins, Vipi Block Gum (M-VP) and M-IVoBase^® CAD (M-IV) were used. The final dimensions of the specimens were 65.0 mm x 12.7 mm x 1.6 mm / 2.0 mm / 2.5 mm. The 3-point bend test was implemented to measure the flexural strength and flexural modulus. Microscopic evaluation of surface of fractured specimen was conducted by using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). After testing the normality of the data, one-way ANOVA was adopted to evaluate the differences among sample groups with a significance level of P = 0.05. The Tukey HSD test was performed for post hoc analysis. Results: Under the same thicknesses, there are significant differences in flexural strength between CAD/CAM denture base resins and conventional denture base resins except for P-DO and C-LC. M-VP showed higher flexural strength than conventional denture base resins, P-DC and M-IV displayed lower flexural strength than conventional denture base resins. Flexural modulus was highest in M-VP, followed by C-LC, P-DO, P-DC, M-IV, significant differences were found between all materials. In the comparison of flexural strength according to thickness, flexural strength of 2.5 mm was significantly higher than that of 1.6 mm in C-LC. Flexural strength of 2.5 mm and 2.0 mm was significantly higher than that of 1.6 mm in P-DC and M-VP. In M-IV, as the thickness increases, significant increase in flexural strength appeared. SEM analysis illustrates different fracture surfaces of the specimens. Conclusion: The flexural strength of different CAD/CAM denture base resins used in this study varied according to the composition and properties of each material. The flexural strength of CAD/CAM denture base resins was higher than the standard suggested by ISO 20795-1:2013 at a thickness of 1.6 mm or more though the thickness decreased. However, for clinical use of dentures with lower thickness, further researches should be done regarding other properties at lower thickness of denture base resins.

The CAD/CAM System for deep drawing transfer die tin mechanical press process has been developed. The developed CAD system can generate the drawing of transfer die in mechanical press. Using thee results from CAD system, it can generate the NC data to machine die's elements on the CAD system. This system can reduce design man-hour an human errors. In order to construct the system, it is used to automated the design process and generate the NC data using concepts of the designing rule and the machining rule. The developed system is based on the knowledge base system which is involved a lot of expert's technology in the practice field. Using AutoLISP language under the AutoCAD system, CTK customer language of SmartCAM is used as the overall CAD/CAM environment. Results of this system will be provide effective aids to the designer and manufacturer in this field.

Dental computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) technology have rapidly progressed over the past 30 years. The technology, which can be used in the dental laboratory, the dental office and the form of production centers, has become more common in recent years. This technology is now applied to inlays, onlays, crowns, fixed partial dentures, removable partial denture frameworks, complete dentures, templates for implant installation, implant abutments, and even maxillofacial prostheses. Dentists and dental technicians, who want to use these techniques, should have certain basic knowledge about that. This article gives an overview of CAD/CAM technologies, histories and how it applies in prosthetic dentistry.

Currently, computer-aided technology becomes one of main issues in clinical dentistry. About 25 years ago, the development of dental CAD/CAM systems for the fabrication of crowns and fixed partial dentures leads to be able to fabricate complete denture today. The fabrication of milled complete denture prostheses with digital scanning technology may decrease the number of patient appointments. However, the precise tooth arrangement and evaluation by patient is not promising relatively. The purpose of this review was to analyze the existing literature on computer aided technology for fabricating complete denture with historical background, current status, and future perspectives. In addition, two available commercial systems were introduced.

With the development of digital dentistry, various intra-oral scanners which acquire intraoral image without conventional impression taking and stone pouring steps have been introduced. Fixed dental prostheses such as inlay, onlay, crown, and bridge fabricated by CAD/CAM technique combined with digital impressions is getting popular due to the recent rapid progress of digital impression taking system. In comparison with traditional prosthetic procedure, the advantages of intraoral image acquiring and CAD/CAM technique are as follows; the omission of conventional impression materials, reduced workflow step, and increased efficiency by online communication with clinic and laboratory. This review article covers some opinions about the suitable scanning procedures for the various prosthodontic treatments and the utilization of digital intraoral scanner and CAD/CAM system.

In this paper, we develop a six-axes machining center tool(MCT) and CAD/CAM system based RAD Tool Program. The MCT consists of two mechanical parts, i.e., a X-Y-Z Cartesian coordinate typed MCT and a parallel-typed tilting table. Kinematics and singularity are accomplished to design the parallel-typed tilting table, and RAD Tool Program Is developed for the six-axes MCT, which requires the commands of position as well as orientation for machining of complex shape. In RAD Tool, the CAD/CAM system has a tool path generator, NC code generator and a graphic simulator. This paper designs the parallel-typed tilting table to meet the desired specification and presents the results of CAD/CAM system based RAD Tool Program.

The objective of this research is to develop an effective inspection planning strategy for sculpture surfaces in OMM(On-Machine Measurement) process. As a first step, effective measuring point locations are determined to obtain optimum results for given sampling numbers. Two measuring point selection methods are suggested in this study based on newly proposed CAD/CAM/CAI integration concept: (1) by the prediction of cutting errors, (2) by considering cutter contact points to avoid the measurement errors caused by cusps. As a next step, the TSP(Traveling Salesman Problem)algorithm is applied to minimize the probe moving distance. Appropriate simulations and experiments are performed to verify the proposed inspection planning strategy in this study, and the results are analyzed.

당사의 CAD/CAM시스템은 미국 WRIST사와 CIM 추진에 계약을 체결한 1987년 6월이래 본격 적으로 도입되기 시작하였다. 그 이전에도 개별부서에서 CAD/CAM 시스템을 사용하고 있었 으나 체계적이지 못하고 단속적인 시스템에 지나지 않았다. 본격적으로 도입이 시작된 시스템은 386PC와 ANVIL이라는 소프트웨어를 중심으로 구성되어 있었으며 도입 초기단계에서는 별다른 문제점이 없이 시스템을 사용해 왔다. 그러나 1990년도에 들어서면서 규모가 커지고 PC가 가지는 한계점과 ANVIL이라는 소프트웨어 특성이 당사의 환경에 적절히 부응하지 못해 다른 시스템의 도입을 결정하게 되었고 많은 논란을 거쳐 현재 당사의 주 시스템인 Intergraph사의 시스템 도 입을 결정하게되었고 1992년 중반에 Intergraph의 워크스테이션을 중심한 시스템이 당사에 설 치되었다. 현재는 개별적 시스템 사용과 아울러 EDB(engineering deta base)와 CAPP(computer aided process planning) 시스템 구축을 위한 제반작업들이 활발히 진행중이다.

With the explosive increase of esthetic demands by patients, many dental materials for the esthetic restoration have been introduced. Recently, zirconia based restorations are using for the cases of single crown, bridges, implant prostheses etc. Zirconia have superior mechanical properties and biocompatibility. Owing to the properties of high strength, zirconia has to be manufactured by CAD/CAM system. Dental CAD/CAM system is a futuristic treatment and technical system which makes it possible to produce the precision and uniform prosthesis and also standardize the treatments. This article introduces the characteristics of zirconia, fabrication procedure using CAD/CAM system and procedure for the cementation of zirconia based restoration.
