Quantification of the amount of dental material removed by selective grinding in wax dentures with photogrammetric measurements.

CONCLUSIONS: The FM implemented in this article has given satisfactory preliminary results, showing good accuracy, low costs and high versatility. It is necessary to highlight that this is an experimental method and that the present analysis is a pilot study that needs further evaluation. Nevertheless results obtained could be of some value for medical companies, in order to improve the artificial teeth's design and project. Moreover, such a method may serve as educational tool for dental students. PMID: 27711027 [PubMed - in process]
