In the field of prosthodontics, the use of virtual patients for biomimetic restoration holds great promise for various applications. Virtual patients consist of digitized data that encompasses details on the morphology, structure, and spatial relationships within the maxillofacial and intraoral regions. Nonetheless, there are several challenges associated with acquiring digital data, achieving accurate alignment, and recording and transferring dynamic jaw movements. This paper aims to concentrate on the process of constructing virtual patients, highlight the key and challenging aspects of virtual patient construction, and advocate for the extensive adoption and utilization of virtual patient technology.
