[Research status of tooth preparation quantitative guide technique].

摘要

Tooth preparation is a basic operation in prosthodontics treatment and the quality of preparation influences the effect of treatment directly. How to achieve a precise and quantitative tooth preparation is always one of the main aims of dental prosthodontics. The known types of tooth preparation guide technique can be divided into visual guidance, passive constraint guidance and active constraint guidance (automated tooth preparation), respectively represented by silicon rubber index, tooth preparation guide plate and computerized numerical control cutting system (CNC cutting system). Studies in advanced manufacturing technologies such as robot systems and numerical control ultra-short pulse laser (USPL) have also been reported recently. This review comprehensively introduced tooth preparation quantitative guide techniques and partially summarized the application effects and limitations to provide reference for relative researches and clinical application.
