Latest Patents

Chen is named on 1 patent: “Method and System for Digital Fabrication of Denture.” The invention describes a workflow that edits attributes of three-dimensional models of prefabricated teeth to create a template database, then uses patient oral data to design tooth arrangement and a denture base. Based on the virtual denture model, the system creates a three-dimensional model of a positioning auxiliary body, which is fabricated and used to position physical prefabricated teeth before they are bonded to a gingival base material. The approach integrates prefabricated teeth into a digital workflow to make their use in digital denture production more practical.

Career Highlights

Chen’s listed patent connects digital modeling and physical fabrication in dental prosthetics. It outlines how a positioning aid can help translate a virtual denture design into the placement of physical teeth.

Collaborations

Chen’s listed coworkers include Gang Wu and Dongbin Huang. His patent is associated with Shenzhen UP3D Tech Co., Ltd.

Conclusion

Dongling Chen’s patent focuses on bridging digital denture design and physical assembly, using a positioning auxiliary body to support the accurate placement of prefabricated teeth.
