Medical and Dental
In healthcare, 3D printing is being used to create a wide range of medical devices.
Medical
Groundbreaking work is being carried out to replicate body tissue and internal organs using 3D print technology.
Experts believe 3D printing will revolutionise organ transplants in the future. Offering an alternative to donors, this will reduce waiting lists and save lives.
Dentistry
In dentistry meanwhile, 3D printing can produce patient-specific crowns, bridges and orthodontic appliances from oral scans and CAD/CAM designs.
This reduces the costs and timescales of modelling, enabling treatment providers to offer the best possible service to patients while building their practice.
