Rapid Prototyping and its Application in Dentistry
Medical implants and biological models have three main characteristics: low volume, complex shape, and can be customized. These characteristics suit very well with Rapid Prototyping (RP) and Rapid Manufacturing (RM) processes. RP/RM processes are fabricated part layer- by-layer until complete shape...
