| Traditional diagnostic wax type | Digital diagnosis of wax patterns | |
| Mold acquisition method | Take silicone mold/inverted plaster cast (flip mold) | Oral scan (about 10 minutes) |
| Craftsmanship | Manual wax type | Computer design/3D printing |
| Design scheme | DSD design scheme data | 3D DSD synchronization adjusts the design |
| Process department | Clinical/Plaster/Wax Type | 1 person in the design department |
| Process equipment | Gypsum mold pouring equipment/wax type electric wax knife | Mouth scan/3D printer |
| Process materials | Silicone, plaster, diagnostic wax | 3D printing materials (photosensitive resins) |
| cost | Relatively bottom | 24 yuan/pair (about 30g per pair, 800 yuan/kg) |
| Timeliness | Slow (especially with multiple teeth) | Fast (the more pieces, the more obvious the advantage) |
