Abstract

Djelomična je proteza mobilni protetski nadomjestak izrađen u svrhu liječenja djelomične bezubosti. Temeljna joj je zadaća nadoknaditi izgubljene zube i uspostaviti izgubljene ili narušene funkcije stomatognatog sustava. Za njenu izradu potrebna je suradnja doktora dentalne medicine i dentalnog tehničara. Osim na konvencionalan način, djelomična proteza može biti izrađena i digitalnim putem. Digitalizacija predstavlja značajan napredak u stomatološkoj protetici s mogućnošću poboljšanja ishoda liječenja i efikasnosti rada dentalnih timova. Konvencionalni se tijek rada temelji na fizičkim otiscima i manualnim tehnikama, dok digitalni način koristi intraoralne skenere, CAD/CAM tehnologiju te 3D printere za preciznu izradu proteza, što značajno smanjuje vrijeme proizvodnje i mogućnost grešaka. Iako još postoje izazovi, kao što je nemogućnost uzimanja funkcijskog otiska digitalnim putem te visoki troškovi nabave, digitalne metode sve više privlače dentalne stručnjake zbog svojih brojnih prednosti u odnosu na konvencionalne tehnike. Međutim, zbog svojih ograničenja, digitalni se način izrade u današnje vrijeme još uvijek oslanja na tradicionalne postupke.

Abstract (english)

A partial denture is a removable prosthetic replacement designed for the treatment of partial edentulism. Its primary purpose is to replace missing teeth and restore lost or impaired functions of the stomatognathic system. Its fabrication requires the collaboration of a dentist and a dental technician. In addition to the conventional method, a partial denture can also be fabricated digitally. Digitalization represents significant progress in dental prosthetics with the potential to improve treatment outcomes and the efficiency of dental teams. The conventional workflow is based on physical impressions and manual techniques, while the digital method uses intraoral scanners, CAD/CAM technology and 3D printers for precise denture fabrications which significantly reduces production time and possibility of errors. Although there are still challenges, such as the inability to take a functional impression digitally and high acquisition costs, digital methods are increasingly attracting dental professionals due to their numerous advantages over conventional techniques. However, due to its limitations, digital fabrication today still relies on traditional procedures.
