Spring 2017, issue 124/125: 3D Printer Dossier

3D printing has transformed the way we work in dentistry.

This dossier aims to give you a full understanding of 3D printers, from the terminology to additive manufacturing technologies and how they really work. We'll also fill you in on the history of 3D printing in dentistry.

In our Buyer's Guide we have put together a selection of dental printers and print materials with technical specifications, product applications and prices.

And there's more! Chris Sireix shares his techniques for printing high-precision partial frameworks, printed in burnout resin and then cast. Andrew Taylor discusses wax depositon modelling for pressings and castings.

This dossier is a must-read for anybody working in dentistry with an interest in 3D Printing.
