How important is dental 3D printer printing of teeth to us

How important is the application of 3D printing in dentistry

1.Application field

Crown
3D printing crowns is one of the most common applications of 3D printing in dentistry. Just scan the patient's teeth, 3D print the model and print the crown directly.

plan
Whether it is a complete denture, gums or teeth, it must be printed with biocompatible materials, and the denture base can also be 3D printed. At present, 3D printed dentures are only suitable for clinical testing.

Creativity
With the continuous development of orthodontic treatment technology, more and more people have dental orthodontic needs. 3D printing is based on digital models and uses corresponding materials to explore more ideal orthodontic treatment methods and bracket design methods.

Invisible braces
After the tooth model is made, the transparent film is wrapped on the model by a thermoplastic molding process, so that a suitable invisible brace can be produced quickly. It can be said that invisible braces are an industry born out of 3D printing.

2.Features

It is no exaggeration to say that 3D printing technology in the dental industry is a milestone of technological innovation in the dental industry, and the various "drilling needs" of patients cannot be overwhelmed by it! Therefore, the dentist can customize the perfect solution that is most suitable for the patient to solve the problem.

3D printing equipment is more cost-effective than traditional equipment and can minimize costs. In addition, 3D printing technology is also more accurate and has a longer service life.

The digital dental technology of 3D printing has brought high precision, low cost, high efficiency, and oral data conforming to the standardized production chain to the dental industry.

It is developing & popularizing very rapidly in the dental industry. Many dental clinics and laboratories have introduced 3D printing technology, which has provided tremendous help for dental diagnosis and treatment. No wonder 3D printing technology is so popular in the dental industry!

3.Printing process

The process of 3D printing dental molds is actually not complicated

Just scan the patient’s dental data through a 3D scanner

After having the data

Then print it out through a 3D printer

At present, most of them use DLP technology in light curing

To make a mold that can be cast

From the perspective of efficiency and accuracy

Qualitative improvement
