  • the method 100 further includes separating the first mould 410 and the second mould 420 from each other to obtain the manufactured dental restoration 440 as shown best in the view of FIG. 4G.
  • the method 100 may further include rendering the 3D dental restoration model 400 to a pre-determined size larger than a size associated with the obtained geometry. The pre-determined size of the 3D dental restoration model 400 would be selected for producing each of the first and second moulds 410, 420 of the manufacturing mould 418 to account for shrinkage of the at least one target material 426 upon curing.
  • the at least one target material 426 may be transparent or translucent. In a further embodiment, the at least one target material 426 may consist of: polymers, ceramic materials, polymer compositions, and composites.
  • the manufacturing mould 418 may be reusable to produce more than one dental restoration
  • the method 100 further includes dividing the 3D dental restoration model 400 into more than two 3D models for forming the manufacturing mould 418 using the more than two moulds, for example, the first mould 410, the second mould 420, and other additional moulds (not shown) that can be attached to one another for forming the manufacturing mould 418.

Abstract

Un procédé de fabrication de restauration dentaire (440) comprend le balayage d'une cavité buccale afin d'obtenir une géométrie des caractéristiques structurelles de celle-ci pour la restauration dentaire. Le procédé comprend en outre la génération d'un modèle tridimensionnel (3D) de restauration dentaire (400) sur la base de la géométrie obtenue, la détermination d'une ligne de proéminence (402) à partir du modèle 3D de restauration dentaire (400) généré, et la division du modèle 3D de restauration dentaire en un premier modèle et un second modèle sur la base de la ligne de proéminence déterminée au préalable (402). Le procédé comprend ensuite l'impression d'un premier moule (410) sur la base du premier modèle et d'un second moule (420) sur la base du second modèle, la fixation amovible du premier moule (410) et du second moule (420) pour former un moule de fabrication (418), le remplissage du moule de fabrication (418) avec au moins un matériau cible (426), le durcissement du ou des matériaux cibles (426) qui forment la restauration dentaire (440), et la séparation du premier moule (410) et du second moule (420) pour obtenir la restauration dentaire (440).
