Kudokotela wamazinyo, intuthuko yezobuchwepheshe ibambe iqhaza elibalulekile ekuguquleni izinqubo zendabuko. Phakathi kwalokhu okuqanjiwe, izikena ze-intraoral zigqama njengethuluzi elimangalisayo eliguqule indlela ochwepheshe bamazinyo abathwebula ngayo imibono enembile.

Izikena ze-Intraoral zaqala ngasekupheleni kwekhulunyaka lama-20 phakathi nezigaba zokuqala zodokotela wamazinyo wedijithali. Imizamo yokuqala yayigxile ekuhlanganiseni i-computer-aid design design (CAD) kanye nobuchwepheshe bokukhiqiza okusizwa ngekhompyutha (CAM) ukuze kuthuthukiswe izinqubo zamazinyo. Nakuba ama-prototypes okuqala ayeyisisekelo, abeka isisekelo samadivayisi athuthukile asetshenziswa namuhla.

Inguquko yezikena ze-intraoral ize nokufika kobuchwepheshe bokuthwebula be-3-dimensional (3D). Izindlela zendabuko zokusebenzisa izinto ezifana ne-putty zazidla isikhathi futhi zingakhululekile ezigulini. Ngakho-ke, izikena ze-intraoral, ngendlela yazo engahlaseli futhi ephumelelayo, zinikeze ukushintsha kwepharadigm. Ikhono lokudala imibono yedijithali enemininingwane, yesikhathi sangempela yavula iminyango emisha yokunemba ekuhleleni ukwelashwa nokubuyisela.

Eminyakeni yamuva nje, izikena ze-intraoral ziye zaba nenqubekelaphambili enkulu kwezobuchwepheshe. Amamodeli okuqala ayenzima futhi efuna ukuqeqeshwa okubanzi ukuze asebenze. Okwamanje, abakhiqizi bagcizelela ukukhiqiza amadivaysi ahlangene, asebenziseka kalula ahlanganiswe nezinqubo zamazinyo. Intuthuko ebalulekile ifaka ukukhuphuka kwesivinini sokuskena, ukunemba okuthuthukisiwe, kanye nekhono lokuthwebula izithombe ze-intraoral ngombala ogcwele.

Manje, izikena ze-intraoral ziba ithuluzi elibalulekile kochwepheshe bamazinyo, ezihlinzeka ngezinzuzo eziningi. Ukuqedwa kwezinto ezibonakalayo ezingcolile kunciphisa isikhathi sokuhlala esihlalweni, kanye nokunemba okuthuthukisiwe ekuthwebuleni imininingwane eyinkimbinkimbi enikela ekuthuthukisweni kokuhlangenwe nakho kwesiguli. Ukwengeza, ukugeleza komsebenzi wedijithali kuvumela ukuxhumana okulula phakathi kodokotela bamazinyo namalabhorethri amazinyo, okukhuthaza ukubambisana nokusheshisa inqubo yokwelapha iyonke.

Izikena ze-intraoral ngokungangabazeki ziguqule izinqubo zamazinyo, kuyilapho izinselele ziqhubeka. Ukucatshangelwa kwezindleko, isidingo sokuqeqeshwa okuqhubekayo, nokuhambisana nezinhlelo ezikhona yizindawo abakhiqizi abaqhubeka nokuzilungisa. Uma sibheka phambili, ikusasa lithembisa ukusungulwa okwengeziwe, ngentuthuko kwezobuhlakani bokwenziwa, okungokoqobo okuthuthukisiwe, nokuhlanganiswa nobunye ubuchwepheshe bedijithali.

Sengiphetha, ukuvela kwezithwebuli ze-intraoral kuyisibonelo sokuphishekela okuhle kakhulu kudokotela wamazinyo wedijithali. Kusukela ekuqalisweni kwayo okunesizotha kuya ekuguqukeleni ekubeni yisisekelo sezinqubo zamazinyo zanamuhla, lezi zixhobo sezihambe ibanga elide. Njengoba ubuchwepheshe buthuthuka ngokunganqamukiyo, uhambo lwama-scanner angaphakathi kusekude ukuphela. Ochwepheshe bamazinyo bangabheka phambili ekusaseni lapho ukunemba, ukusebenza kahle, nokunethezeka kwesiguli kuhlala kuhamba phambili ekwenziweni okusha ekunakekelweni kwezempilo ngomlomo.
