Developing an Adaptive Digital Twin for Denture Surface Quality Control during CNC Micro-Milling

We are at the era of precision medicine and dentistry; however, currently the leading-edge technologies used for adaptive milling control and modeling of CNC milling have not entered the micro-scale milling applications in the dental industry. The overall objective of this MITACS project is to utilize an Industry 4.0 based approach to explore characterization parameters that can be specifically used to optimize the surface quality of micro-scale milled dentures in real-time. The desired long-term result of this research program is to create a Canadian innovation in the dental industry that combines micro-milling, artificial intelligence, and informatic systems.
