Influence of different post-washing parameters on the properties of additively-manufactured dental devices - A systematic review
Based on the current in vitro evidences, post-washing is a critical step in additive manufacturing of dental devices, however, still lacks consensus across different solvents, exposure duration, temperature, and mechanical method. This review highlights the importance of post-washing parameters that balance clinical efficacy, safety, and sustainability, highlighting opportunities for future research, standardization and best practice.
