Abstract
3D printing is rooting itself as a promising digital technology in the field of dentistry. Emergence of this recent advanced digital science has opened up new perspectives for design and production of 3D models quickly and automatically. The concept of utilizing this technology is to improvise the standards of the treatment provided to the patients, due to more precision and less technique sensitive outcomes. It works on the concept of additive manufacturing, which has its advantages in contrast to the subtractive manufacturing process. It is important to have knowledge about the different 3D printing modalities available as it is not only an upcoming technology in dentistry but also one which is emerging with myriad applications which offer better predictable results in areas of preoperative diagnostic planning, clinical handling and follow up. This article provides an overview on the method and applications of 3D printing with focus primarily in the field of Operative Dentistry and Endodontics.
