Development of Computer Assisted Systems for Manufacturing Dental Prosthetic. (2nd Report). Development of Crown Design System.

CAD system for designing dental crown has been developed as a step to attain stable and sufficient supply of prosthetic teeth, which will be serious social requirement in The 21st century. In the report, a concept for modifying standard crown model and a process for crown designing by combining functions and operations of the design, were proposed. Then CAD system equipped with CAD function to assist the design process and design data has been developed and rapid crown designing has shown to be realized.
