The idea to produce dental restorations by combining intraoral scanning and material processing with computerized design arose already at the end of the 70´s. The first computer aided design (CAD) and computer aided manufacturing (CAM) systems were introduced in the mid 80’s. It took two decades before use of CAD/CAM systems became popular among dentists.
Huge steps have been taken in this field during the last decade. Several systems and an ever-increasing number of materials are currently available for CAD/CAM restorations. Due to better possibilities to merge different digital datasets with sophisticated design software, one is now able to complete many demanding treatments utilizing fully digital workflow. This is seen especially in implant dentistry where novel treatment protocols are prosthetically driven. Ideally implant positioning can be planned precisely according to anatomical conditions, which facilitate good functional and aesthetic results. Advances in digital workflow enable completely new tools for orthodontic treatments as well. The use of clear orthodontic aligners is rapidly increasing and many clinicians are keen on performing orthodontic treatments to their patients.
Fast development in CAD/CAM technologies can create completely different kinds of challenges for clinicians, material scientists and engineers. This symposium will highlight some of these challenges, and aims to bring up questions which need to be addressed in research laboratories and clinics
