3D printing technology in the application of oral implantology and prosthodontics / 医学研究生学报

ABSTRACT

3D printing technology has been developing rapidly in recent years, It is first applied in the engineering field, and then extended to medical field. In the field of stomatology 3D printing technology was first mainly applied to medical implants such as artificial bone joints and prostheses. With the development of technology, 3D printing technology is gradually used to manufacture the biologically active tissues such as blood vessels, skin and inner ear. With its unique advantage, 3D printing technology is gradually applied in oral implantology and prosthodontics.This paper reviews the basic steps of 3D printing technology, the technology in oral implantology and prosthodontics，and the existing problems.
