Abstract

Time compression technologies (TCT) is a tools and technique for concurrent engineering within modern product and process development. TCT such as reverse engineering (RE) and rapid prototyping (RP) have been widespread in dentistry and medical sector. Rapid mechanical prototyping make it possible to quickly fabricate complex-shaped 3D parts directly from computer aided design model. The current dental restoration process in dental laboratory is time consuming. Therefore, this project wants to try to understand and determine how modern approach can be applied and contribute to the conventional process. The main objectives of the project are to produce dental crown by using time compression technologies and compare the conventional process against modern approach. Through the experiment it is finding that the crown is unable to be fabricated due to several factors. However, the time taken requires to produce the crown by using modern approach are faster, shorter and simpler than conventional process. Lastly, process analysis will be done to determine how modern approach can be applied and contribute to the conventional process.
