The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for three-dimensionally laminating a ceramic denture in a color-and-transmittance variable manner. A base slurry and a light transmissive slurry are mixed at a ratio regulated by a main controller according to a slurry ratio parameter datum, and then a slurry mixture is laid on a substrate by a laying module to form a slurry layer; next, the slurry layer is photocured by a photocuring module according to a laminated graphic under control of the main controller; in such a manner, the slurry layers are laminated and cured one by one so that a denture green body is formed; finally, the denture green body is sintered at a high temperature to form a ceramic denture. The present invention allows each slurry layer to exhibit different color and transmittance, resulting in quite natural gradation of color and gradation of transmittance.
