FRANKFURT AM MAIN, Germany: Once considered a niche solution, 3D printing is now an integral process for dental laboratories, practices and clinics. Supporting the fabrication of a range of products, including precise models, functional splints and complex prostheses, additive manufacturing (AM) has developed into a key technology. The digital workflow—involving intra-oral scanning, CAD and 3D printing—not only enhances patient care but also improves efficiency, cost-effectiveness and sustainability.
