A Review: History of 3D Printing
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: However, the term 3D printing is commonly used to describe an assembling process whereby the final shape of the object results from the addition of several layers of build for the skeleton of the object. This process is better described as additive manufacturing and also referred to as rapid prototyping. After all, the term 3D printing, on the whole, is relatively new, and has been an active part of the current developments in Dentistry. Much publicity encompasses the evolution of 3D printing which is pro-claimed as an innovation that will change CAM manufacturing perpetually, including in the dental sector. This review is the first in a 3D Printing series that gives the history of 3D Printing, the technologies available, and reviews the literature regarding the accuracy of such technologies. Conclusion: The recent evolution of digital dentistry to introduce the methods has indeed revolutionized dental practice through paving. The road for CAD technology and rapid prototyping. With the advent of 3D printing, it is now possible to have 3D digital models created with an intraoral scanner that could then be easily manipulated for diagnosis, treatment planning, mockups, and countless other applications. Combining 3D Printing with a 3D intraoral scan eliminates the need for physical storage but makes it difficult to retrieve a 3D model for use within all dental modalities.
