To study the current status and applications of additive manufacturing (AM) in dentistry along with various technologies, benefits and future scope. Methods: A significant number of relevant research papers on the additive manufacturing application in dentistry are identified through Scopus and studied using bibliometric analysis that shows an increasing trend of research in this field. This paper briefly describes various types of AM technologies with their accuracy, pros and cons along with different dental materials. Paper also discusses various benefits of AM in dentistry and steps used to create 3D printed dental model using this technology. Further, ten major AM applications in dentistry are identified along with primary references and objectives. Results: Additive manufacturing is an innovative technique moving towards the customised production of dental implants and other dental tools using computer-aided design (CAD) data. This technology is used to manufacture elaborate dental crowns, bridges, orthodontic braces and can also various other models, devices and instruments with lesser time and cost. With the help of this disruptive innovation, dental implants are fabricated accurately as per patient data captured by the dental 3D scanner. The application of this technology is also being explored for the precise manufacturing of removal prosthetics, aligners, surgical templates for implants and produce models that for the planning of treatment and preoperative positioning of the jaws.

“…With recent mobile phones such as Apple's 'iPhone X' featuring 3D facial recognition and Sony's 'Xperia XZ Premium' having native 3D scanning capabilities, the selfie is shifting to three dimensions where the full geometric detail of a face or body is captured in raw detail, no longer framed through the camera lens. This is fuelled by growth in dedicated 3D scanning technologies (Halterman, 2014), with 3D scanning being used in an increasing variety of industries including dental (Javaid, Haleem, & Kumar, 2018), orthotics (Telfer & Woodburn, 2010), heritage preservation (Wachowiak & Karas, 2009) and fashion (Gill, 2015).…”

As 3D printing technology achieves mainstream adoption, people are forming new relationships with products as they shift from passive consumers to “prosumers” capable of both producing and consuming objects on demand. This is fueled by expanding online 3D printing communities, with new data within this chapter suggesting that prosumers are challenging existing understandings of popular culture as they bypass traditional mass manufacturing. With 3D digital files rapidly distributed through online platforms, this chapter argues that a new trend for “viral objects” is emerging, alongside the “3D selfie,” as digital bits spread via the internet are given physical form through 3D printing in ever increasing quantities. Analysis of these trends will provide academics, educators, and prosumers with a new perspective of 3D printing's socio-cultural impact, and further research directions are suggested to build a broader discourse around the opportunities and challenges of a cyberphysical future.

“…By using a VR headset, one can see the patient body and their parts digitally in different angles. [10][11][12] This technology increases the confidence of the patient by decreasing their fear when they are using VR glasses as it provides information closer to the real-life situation. By using this technology, a heart surgeon can now check the heart rate of the patient and its changes in rate.…”

Background/objectives: Virtual Reality (VR) is a developing technology, which seems to have extensive applications in different areas such as entertainment, sports, gaming and simulation. In the current scenario, due to Computer-generated imagery and content aim at simulating a real presence through senses capability, it has functional applications in the medical field. So, there are requirements to study its applicability in the medical field. Methods: Relevant papers on VR in the context of the medical field are identified and studied. This paper is a literature review based analysis, where we are trying to find how this technology is going to solve a medicalrelated problem in saving the life of the patient and what are the significant applications. Results: VR provides a simulated environment to interact with the 3D world. Medical professionals are developing and implementing this technology for training, diagnosis and virtual treatment during a critical situation. The study sees that there is good potential for VR in the medical field. We also studied the processes involved in implementing this technology in the medical field. Finally, this paper identifies fourteen major applications of VR in the medical field with description. This technology is helping to create quality healthcare services during complicated cases. Conclusions: VR is used effectively for better surgical technique. It creates detailed virtual models of a patient's anatomy. It helps physicians to effectively move around and view virtual 3D images from different angles. This technology is currently applied in cardiology and Neurology for monitoring and improves patient outcomes. It plays a significant role to help physician related to trauma and other fractures. VR is an emerging technology which can also be used in hospitals and clinics for rehabilitation & training approaches. The applications of this technology are in virtual guides and to fulfil different other virtual goals in the medical field. It seems like an efficient technology to teach body fitness and help create a positive impact on doctors and the patient. This technology leads to creative and exciting discoveries in the medical field.
