Title:
METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SCAFFOLD FOR TREATING TOOTH EXTRACTION SOCKET
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/007247
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a technique for manufacturing a scaffold that may be placed immediately after a tooth is extracted and may be placed exactly in a tooth extraction socket, and thus in the manufacturing of a scaffold for dental treatment, enabling the accurate formation of a scaffold shape requiring a high degree of precision, and accordingly enabling prompt and low-cost manufacturing of a scaffold. A method for manufacturing a scaffold for treating a tooth extraction socket, according to the first embodiment of the present invention, comprises the steps of: on the basis of a medical image file (DICOM) among CT imaging data of teeth, and by using a 3D printer, manufacturing a 3D model comprising the alveolar bone and the teeth, wherein the alveolar bone and the teeth are distinguishable; simulating a tooth extraction by removing a region corresponding to a tooth in a tooth extraction site on the manufactured 3D model; and manufacturing, by using a 3D printer, a scaffold to be placed in an actual tooth extraction socket by tracing the shape of the tooth extraction socket existing on the manufactured 3D model as a result of the tooth extraction simulation.
