Computerized Method For Coloring Porcelain Tooth

Abstract

A computerized method for coloring a porcelain tooth includes a color difference comparison step, a first computer aided process, and a second computer aided process, for precisely controlling the color of the porcelain tooth. Each parameter is obtained from data comparison. The first computer aided process forms a first layer on the surface of the porcelain tooth and then and the second computer aided process forms a second layer on the first layer by way of computer aided manufacturing (CAM) according to the color difference comparison step. Because of CAM, the method does not require an experienced operator. Therefore, it may reduce labor cost, human error, and ceramic powder consumption. The method may thus save cost, improve production efficiency, and shorten delivery time of the porcelain tooth product.
