Over the last few years, 3D printing technology has disrupted numerous industries, including the dental industry. Thanks to 3D printing technologies, dental specialists are able to provide services that are more personalized and efficient to the patient. DPS Dental, a leading dental technology provider, has been involved in the integration of 3D printing in dental practices to enhance patient care and care outcomes.

How 3D Printers Technology Changed Dental Care?

3D printing in dentistry makes it all possible to produce highly accurate physical copies of dental models, prostheses and surgical drapes from digital images. The technology employs the use of resins and metals among other materials in constructing a specifically fitted solution that has precision in the second digit from the decimal point. This has turned out to be useful in crown and bridge making, implant and orthodontics end procedures where precision is very important.

With 3-D printers, dentists can create prosthetic devices to the specifications of each patient’s oral structures, allowing them to produce tailored dental implants, aligners, and dentures. This personalized approach to device production makes it unnecessary to wear many devices before the fitted model is considered appropriate. The devices offered by DPS Dental, produce 3D printers that elevate the quality of dental procedures and the speed of operations thereby increasing the satisfaction levels of the patients.

Advantages for the Patients

Amid all advantages which 3D printing technology possesses, the one that stands out the most is the decreasing time of performance of a given dental procedure. Laborious processes for making dental appliances may distribute over a considerable duration due to dependence on the outside labor, yet, with the use of 3D printers, these wait times are almost non-existent. Which means the patients would have less waiting time and fewer nights spent uncomfortable due to the treatment.

Apart from that, it also means patients will experience a greater level of precision in dental treatments than before, a crucial aspect when prescribing cups, bridges and dentures for retainer patients. Thanks to DPS Dental’s sophisticated 3D printing technologies, they are able to provide patients with dental prosthetic appliances which are much more accurate and therefore provide a greater improvement in one’s general dental health.

Improving the Options of Treatments Available

Besides performing basic dental practices, 3D printers are also becoming more useful in performing intricate surgeries. For instance, there are 3D printers that already design and print out templates used during dental surgery to fix implants. These templates increase the accuracy of implant placement, hence improving the chances of implant success while also reducing recovery time for most patients. Also, with the use of 3D printing, there is the possibility of making orthodontics and molds for clear orthodontic body aligners, providing better and simpler procedures to patients with crooked teeth.

The world of 3D printing is changing the face of dental treatment, with DPS Dental bringing technology that enhances the convergence of dental care and a patient’s needs. The ability to 3D print tailored products brings about a fundamental change in the industry, providing better and quicker treatment to the patients. Moving forward it is expected for 3D printing technologies in dentistry to keep advancing and further enhancing patient care and the practice of dentistry as a whole.
