What is a Dental Milling Machine?

Overview of Dental Milling Machines: Types, Uses, and Materials

It is a tool used for shaping and cutting various dental restoration materials. These Machines are essential for creating various dental restorations like implants, crowns, bridges, and false teeth.

  • 4-axis milling machines: These have four rotating axes and are used for tasks like building crowns and bridges.
  • 5-axis milling machines: These have five rotating axes, allowing for more complex and precise dental restorations. Such as Buccal details on Incisors. 
  • Wet milling machines: Use a liquid coolant to remove extra material.
  • Dry milling machines: Use air to remove extra material.
  • Wet & dry two-in-one milling machines: Can switch between using liquid coolant and air, making them versatile for different tasks.

Dental milling machines use CAD/CAM (Computer-Aided Design and Computer-Aided Manufacturing) technology to precisely mill materials such as Hybrid-Ceramics, Zirconia, Alloys, Resins, CoCr, titanium, PMMA, PEEK, and wax.
