Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of oral restoration, and in particular to a denture digital porcelain-plating method. Background Art

[0002] The manufacturing process of denture porcelain crowns requires the process of porcelain application and porcelain turning to achieve the purpose of covering the base color and stacking the appearance. The porcelain application process is to use a porcelain application pen to stack porcelain powder on the outer surface of the prepared metal or ceramic bottom crown; in this process, the thickness of the porcelain powder stacking needs to be controlled to ensure the final crown proximity and jaw relationship. Then the porcelain process is required to form the initial porcelain teeth.

[0003] The porcelain turning process is to use a manual grinder to grind and refine the initial porcelain teeth after the porcelain is applied, to ensure that the shape, size, edges and other aspects of the porcelain teeth meet the requirements, making their surface smoother and closer, and achieving the final perfect form.

[0004] In today's oral medical field, the rapid advancement of technology is constantly promoting the innovation and optimization of treatment methods; among them, oral restoration technology, as a key link in improving the quality of life of patients, is particularly noteworthy for its development and improvement; with the deep integration of material science, precision manufacturing and automation technology, the production process of dentures is entering a new stage of development. In the traditional denture porcelain and porcelain turning process, the existing technology is completed manually using manual tools, which requires a high level of manual skills and working hours, otherwise the product will have quality problems, such as poor color masking effect, inaccurate shape, poor edge sealing, etc. Summary of the invention
