What are the clinical merits of CAD/CAM manufactured dentures? [November 27, 2017]

Search result: Two older systematic reviews (until June 2012) and one recent clinical trial (2016) were found.

Clinical outcomes: The results suggest that CAD/CAM post-sintered denture frameworks are superior to CAM pre-sintered denture frameworks and that CAD/CAM systems may show less marginal discrepancy than conventional methods for framework fabrication..

[‘Preliminary Systematic Literature Searches’ are based on SYSTEM’s periodic systematic searches of the dental literature and provide first overviews over existing clinical evidence but are limited in the number of databases searched, as well as the assessment of precision and internal validity of results and thus do not replace the need for a full systematic review report to the topic]
