Your smile is the window to your personality. Missing teeth or loose dentures can make many of us self-conscious and cause us to avoid social opportunities. It’s a common problem. In fact, almost 70 percent of the U.S. population has lost at least one tooth to decay, disease, or accident. More importantly, missing teeth may trigger: rapid bone loss, decreased oral function, premature aging due to jawbone shrinkage, shifting of adjacent teeth, and a decline in general health, as food is gummed instead of chewed.
Dental implants replace missing teeth with natural looking prosthetics. Implants typically consist of three parts:
3D printing is a form of additive manufacturing, whereby materials can be joined together, layer upon layer until a 3D replica has been built. The technology of 3D printing allows a dentist to create customized dental components and devices when used in combination with intra-oral scanning and CAD/CAM design software. 3D printing is currently being used to fabricate:
We use a 3D printer to create high-resolution dental models and prototypes. After obtaining detailed images from our 3Shape Trios® intra-oral scanner, we use specialized software to design the desired model or mock-up. This design is sent to the printer that has been loaded with an FDA-approved tank of resin, and within a few hours, the fabrication is complete. Because the 3D printer is able to convert digital images into physical objects, the results are more accurate than if the object were completed manually. The patient is able to receive implants much faster as the printer eliminates the need to wait weeks for an off site lab to complete the job.
Some of the benefits of 3D printing include:
