3D Dental Prosthetic Tooth Crown: Re-Modeling of Customized Tooth Crown using Additive Manufacturing and Synthesis of Bio-Compactible Tooth Filling

This paper aims to shows, that what extent 3d
printing can be used in dental laboratories and dental
practices at present. It attempts to present a rational
evaluation of today’s application of 3d printing technology
in the context of dental restoration. In addition, the article
discusses future perspectives and examines the ongoing
viability of traditional dental laboratory services and
manufacturing processes. It also shows which expertise is
needed for the digital additive manufacturing of dental
restoration and a case report of prosthetic treatment built
upon 3d technologies for manufacturing of dental
restorations. We designed a customized 3D tooth cap using
3D printing technology. Rhinoceros and Solid work are the
software is used to design and simulated a customized 3d
tooth cap. Ultimaker Cura software and Ansys is used to
slice and to test the mechanical simulation of the tooth cap
in viable environment such that there is no miscible after
the implantation. The 3D printing methodology used to
print the prototype model is Fused Deposition Modeling
(FDM). Bio-compactible tooth filling / tooth cement was
prepared using beta tri-calcium phosphate, co-polymers
like Pectin and poly vinyl pyrrolidine (PVP) as a promising
biomaterial to enhance a cell growth in a suitable
environment. The tooth filling/tooth cement slurry was
characterized by FTIR and the anti-bacterial testing was
carried out against E. coli, pseudomonas, C. albicans and
S. aureus it exhibits an excellent inhibition zone. Thus, our
primary study was concluded that the bio-ceramic tooth
filling could be an ideal solution instead of tooth gum.
