An Analysis of 3D-Printed Materials for Permanent Restorations
A recent analysis by Dr. Russell Giordano, DMD, highlights the exciting potential of 3D-printed materials for permanent dental restorations. While some materials don’t yet meet the ADA’s ceramic standards due to low inorganic filler content, their strength, fracture toughness, and wear resistance show promise when compared to conventional ceramics. 🌟
Fracture toughness is key to clinical success, and although more standardized tests are needed, 3D printing is pushing the boundaries of what's possible in dentistry! 🚀🦷
Dr. Giordano, brings decades of research from Harvard and MIT into ceramics and dental materials, making him a leader in this field.
