A Comparison of the Accuracy of Two Non-dental 3D Printers and a Standard Dental 3D Printer for Printing Dental Models: An In Vitro 3D Analysis

Dental-specific desktop SLA 3D printers appear to have better accuracy than non-dental desktop 3D printers. When a non-dental 3D printer is used, the accuracy of these 3D printers may or may not be sufficient for dental applications.

Abstract

Dental-specific desktop SLA 3D printers appear to have better accuracy than non-dental desktop 3D printers. When a non-dental 3D printer is used, the accuracy of these 3D printers may or may not be sufficient for dental applications.
