“…Although it might be influenced by the impression material and stone preparation settings, we used impression and stone materials of already proven accuracy . Between the two AM models, the PolyJet model had the best precision, which can be explained by the fact that the PolyJet process uses photopolymer from a new cartridge every time, whereas the SLA process reuses nonpolymerized resins, which might introduce errors during the phase change of the liquid resin . Furthermore, in general (Fig B), AM models had more green areas than the stone model, but they had more blue areas in the occlusal surface of the posterior region (i.e., more deviation than the stone model).…”

“…Of these AM methods used for dental replica models, the stereolithographic apparatus (SLA) method and PolyJet (photopolymer jetting) method using photopolymer materials, are known to have good accuracy . The SLA method builds 3D shapes by accumulating cured layers of liquid resin in a water bath by laser beam, while the PolyJet method mimics the mechanism of an inkjet printer, using liquid photopolymers instead of ink and solidifying them with UV light, by the photocuring process …”

Although the dental replica models using photopolymer materials did not show better trueness than the conventional stone models, there was no significant difference between the SLA and the stone models. Concerning precision, dental replica models using photopolymer materials presented better results than that of the conventional stone models. In sum, dental replica models using photopolymer materials showed sufficient accuracy for clinical use.

“…Orthodontic applications of 3D printing include diagnostic models, trays for indirect bonding, and tooth movement appliances (Nayar et al . , Kumar & Ghafoor , https://smiledirectclub.com/, https://www.digitalortho.com.au/). Recent applications of 3D printing in the endodontic literature point to a possible paradigm shift in the way challenging surgical and nonsurgical endodontic treatments are accomplished.…”

“…Since the introduction of CBCT, documentation of 3D printing applications in Periodontics, Prosthodontics, Orthodontics and Oral Surgery has steadily accumulated (Nikzad & Azari 2008, D'haese et al 2012, Kumar & Ghafoor 2016, Alharbi et al 2017. CAD/ CAM fabrication of surgical implant guides has been used extensively for targeting implant osteotomy drills (Ersoy et al 2008, Schneider et al 2009, D'haese et al 2012.…”

Anderson J, Wealleans J, Ray J. Endodontic applications of 3D printing. International Endodontic Journal.Computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) technologies can leverage cone beam computed tomography data for production of objects used in surgical and nonsurgical endodontics and in educational settings. The aim of this article was to review all current applications of 3D printing in endodontics and to speculate upon future directions for research and clinical use within the specialty. A literature search of PubMed, Ovid and Scopus was conducted using the following terms: stereolithography, 3D printing, computer aided rapid prototyping, surgical guide, guided endodontic surgery, guided endodontic access, additive manufacturing, rapid prototyping, autotransplantation rapid prototyping, CAD, CAM. Inclusion criteria were articles in the English language documenting endodontic applications of 3D printing. Fifty-one articles met inclusion criteria and were utilized. The endodontic literature on 3D printing is generally limited to case reports and pre-clinical studies. Documented solutions to endodontic challenges include: guided access with pulp canal obliteration, applications in autotransplantation, pre-surgical planning and educational modelling and accurate location of osteotomy perforation sites. Acquisition of technical expertise and equipment within endodontic practices present formidable obstacles to widespread deployment within the endodontic specialty. As knowledge advances, endodontic postgraduate programmes should consider implementing 3D printing into their curriculums. Future research directions should include clinical outcomes assessments of treatments employing 3D printed objects.
