Application: Method of producing a dental restoration (Patent ID: US20240173108A1)
The patent filed by Ivoclar Vivadent AG describes a method for producing dental restorations by determining different spatial regions subject to varying loads and using different production materials accordingly. The method involves calculating the load using internal strain or a finite element method and selecting materials based on the calculated load. Additionally, the production device described in the patent includes a determination device for identifying high-load regions and a production apparatus for utilizing different materials in these regions, potentially enhancing the strength and performance of the dental restoration.
Furthermore, the patent outlines the use of a three-dimensional printing process, specifically free-jet material deposition, for producing the dental restorations. This innovative approach allows for precise customization of materials in different spatial regions based on load calculations, potentially leading to more durable and effective dental restorations. The production device also includes features such as doping materials differently in high-load regions and utilizing a 3D printer for the manufacturing process, highlighting the advanced technology and methodology proposed in the patent by Ivoclar Vivadent AG.
