Abstract

Artificial intelligence plays a significant role in the development
of dentistry with advancing technology. This technological
advancement, utilized in various of areas from diagnostic
processes to treatment planning, has paved the way for
innovative applications to be integrated into dental practice.
Notably, these applications have begun to revolutionize
manufacturing processes. The role of artificial intelligence in
prosthetics manufacturing is becoming increasingly common,
aiming for faster and more successful production of dental
prostheses. It is also utilized in the manufacturing of occlusal
appliances for prosthetic dental treatments, assisting in the
design process by analyzing data from patients. This case
report aims to present the manufacturing stages of an occlusal
stabilization appliance using artificial intelligence.
