Abstract:
CAD/CAM (computer-assisted design/computer assisted manufacturing), although devised 20 years ago, has only been available for routine dental practice for 2 years. As a supplement to the conventional methods for making dental prostheses, CAD/CAM will have profound effects on the dental profession. CAD/CAM will improve versatility, accuracy, and cost effectiveness and will be a part of routine dental practice by the beginning of the 21st century.
