An evaluation by dental clinicians of cutting characteristics and haptic perceptions in 3D‐printed typodont teeth: A pilot study
The results of the study suggest that 3D-printed typodont teeth offer a comparable haptic perception to human extracted teeth and can be used as an effective tool for preclinical dental learning. Moreover, the study highlights the advantages of 3D-printed typodont teeth over commercial typodont teeth in terms of haptic perception.
