Abstract

Abstract: The field of science and research is dynamic and the scientific discipline of restorative dentistry and endodontics is no exception. The practice of dentistry and the technology involved has evolved tremendously from the traditional to the contemporary. As a result of continual developments in technology, newer cutting edge methods in production and treatment have evolved. This paper explores the scope of additive manufacturing technology in restorative dentistry and endodontics, progress achieved in this field, practicality hurdles, and a promising future that this technology might provide if harnessed to its full potential. CPD/Clinical Relevance: This paper gives an update on current concepts of additive manufacturing being employed in the field of restorative dentistry and endodontics for clinical practice, academic progress and translational research.
