Abstract

Rapid prototyping technology has opened new design and production possibilities in the realm of maxillofacial prosthodontics. Rapid prototyping is a technology that allows us to create physical objects from 3D computer data by sequential layering. Rapid prototyping has transformed dentistry with faster processing and increased precision of various prosthetic devices. This article attempts to enhance knowledge on history, materials used for rapid prototyping and an insight on applications of rapid prototyping in maxillofacial prosthodontics.
