All Dental Milling
Dental milling is the process of using computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology to create dental prostheses and appliances, such as crowns, bridges, and implants, from solid blocks of material, such as ceramic or metal.
The process of dental milling involves using specialized software to design a 3D model of the prosthetic device, which is then sent to a milling machine that carves the device from a solid block of material. The milling machine uses rotary cutting tools and water or air cooling to precisely carve the device according to the specifications of the design.
Dental milling technology has revolutionized the field of dentistry, allowing for the creation of highly accurate and detailed dental prostheses and appliances. The use of CAD/CAM technology in dental milling has also shortened the time required to produce dental prostheses, enabling dentists to offer same-day service to their patients in some cases.
Dental milling is commonly used in dental laboratories and clinics, where it is used to create custom prostheses and appliances for patients. By using dental milling technology, dental professionals can produce highly precise and functional prostheses that fit the patient’s teeth and mouth perfectly, providing a comfortable and effective solution for dental restoration.
