Özkan stated that the treatments that would potentially 15 days with conventional methods are completed on the same day using these digital dentistry practices. She said the porcelain teeth can be produced in 15 minutes using the 3d printing method.

In the digital dentistry system; the teeth that are going to be treated is determined and measured by a machine. Then the teeth that are designed according to the patient's tooth structure are then sent to the 3d printer as a command to be produced.
