Custom Dental Implants and Aligners (e.g., Invisalign): Invisalign revolutionized orthodontics using 3D printed aligners. Digital scans create a series of custom, clear plastic trays that gradually shift teeth into position. Each set is precisely printed using biocompatible resins, ensuring comfort and effectiveness. The process is faster and more predictable than traditional braces, with virtual treatment previews. 3D printing also produces surgical guides, crowns, and dentures, enabling same-day restorations. Dental labs use industrial printers for high-volume, accurate production. This application supports mass customization, reduces waste, and improves patient outcomes. It demonstrates how additive manufacturing delivers personalized, efficient healthcare solutions, transforming dental practices and making orthodontic treatment more accessible and discreet.
