| Abstract [eng] |
The project focuses on the possibilities of using additive manufacturing technologies in production of dental structures. Using such technology would benefit society by decreasing the time and resources required to produce the desirable result. Production of a dental crown is being done by a skilled technician. It takes a lot of time to reach a result, which in turn increases the overall price of the crown. Since the material used for dentistry is widely available, it is only necessary to combine it with a technology that would produce an object out of it. 3D printing could be one of such technologies to date. Parts of this research work include usage of dentistry ceramics, its behavior in various conditions, introduction of possible solutions for occurring problems, presentation of a design of a spraying nozzle for ceramic printing. |
