What type of modifications are you looking for?

The modifications depend on your CAM software. Many Dental CAMs are based on Pro/Industrial versions with a friendly user-interface and canned strategies. In these cases, if you don't have the full version you cannot make strategy changes (for example: DentMILL and PowerMILL from Delcam, hyperDENT and hyperMILL from Open Mind, and WorkNC Dental and WorkNC from Sescoi).

Most CAM strategies for dental are good for most "normal" dental geometries. The dental CAM will produce a resonable output to obtain a good piece. It may not be the fastest produced, but you'll get a satisfactory finish. That said, if you have a custom design (typically for advanced bars) you need to tweak the milling strategies. Also, if you want to use milling tools from different suppliers, you need to adjust cutting conditions.

If you have a full CAM version, yes you can modify the strategies. If you've never done this before, I recommend you speak with the CAM supplier.

In answer to the OP's question, "Yes." :D
