CAD/CAM means computer aided design and computer aided manufacturing. It is the technology concerned with the use of digital computers to perform certain function in design and manufacturing. CAD can be defined as the use of computer system to create, modify, analyze or optimize an engineering design. CAD/ CAM used for designing as well as controlling the manufacturing process. Reconstruction the craniofacial structure is difficult due to its complex anatomical structure, presence of vital structure adjacent to the affected part, chances of high infection. For any craniofacial reconstruction autograft is the gold standard. But use autografts have limitation such as large defect, chances of infection, additional surgeries, highly qualified team, donor site morbidity etc. But the CAD/CAM system focuses on 3D modeling which gives the surgeons the ability for precise preoperative planning and perform virtual resection of the defect and design the patient specific implants.

Abstract


CAD/CAM means computer aided design and computer aided manufacturing. It is the technology concerned with the use of digital computers to perform certain function in design and manufacturing. CAD can be defined as the use of computer system to create, modify, analyze or optimize an engineering design. CAD/ CAM used for designing as well as controlling the manufacturing process. Reconstruction the craniofacial structure is difficult due to its complex anatomical structure, presence of vital structure adjacent to the affected part, chances of high infection. For any craniofacial reconstruction autograft is the gold standard. But use autografts have limitation such as large defect, chances of infection, additional surgeries, highly qualified team, donor site morbidity etc. But the CAD/CAM system focuses on 3D modeling which gives the surgeons the ability for precise preoperative planning and perform virtual resection of the defect and design the patient specific implants.
