Abstract

Augmented reality refers to: “a technology that superimposes a computer-generated image on a user’s view of the real world, thus providing a composite view”. It has become resourceful in many fields including dentistry and medicine. Currently augmented reality is restricted to education, maxillofacial surgeries and implantology but further research and development can expand its uses to many other critical areas. In prosthodontics, visualization of a smile design or a prosthesis outcome becomes difficult to the patient. Augmented reality will make it easier for all the persons involved to establish a proper communication and desired treatment outcome for the patient as it will superimpose the desired outcome on the current patient situation. As augmented reality is becoming more common, its applications will become wider. This article presents a brief history of the development of augmented reality and its current applications in the field of prosthodontics.
