Abstract:

3D printing is a kind of computer aided manufacturing, which transforms digital model into green body through 3D printing equipment. With the development of various digital means, 3D printing has been widely used in the manufacture of dental prostheses. Implant denture, known as the second set of human teeth, has become a hot spot in clinical practice for its advantages of aesthetic and comfort. At present, oral implants are mainly manufactured by traditional methods. 3D printing can improve the implant personalization and production efficiency. Research shows that 3D printing implants are feasible, but there is no unified conclusion on implant design and surface modification. By introducing the latest research progress of 3D printed metal and all-porcelain implants, this paper aims to bring thoughts on implant material selection, production process, surface design and modification, and provide references for further research on 3D printed implants, so as to better serve the clinical practice.
