Leonardo M Nassani, Rafat S Amer, Shereen S Azer, Daniel S Clark, Khalil Ezzeddine
TL;DR
This paper presents a new digital method for creating realistic tooth restorations using 3D-printed resin, offering better precision and aesthetics than traditional techniques.
Contribution
The novelty lies in the fully digital AMIM workflow for polychromatic anterior resin composite restorations using flexible 3D-printed resin.
Findings
The AMIM technique demonstrated feasibility and predictability in creating aesthetically pleasing restorations.
The method effectively addressed short lateral incisors and hypocalcification staining in a clinical case.
The digital workflow improved precision and efficiency compared to traditional methods.
Abstract
This case report introduces the Additive Manufacturing Injection Molding (AMIM) technique, a fully digital workflow using orthodontic 3D-printed resin for polychromatic anterior composite restorations. The technique aims to improve precision and efficiency compared to traditional methods. This report demonstrates the feasibility and predictability of using flexible 3D-printed resin in conjunction with a digital workflow to achieve aesthetically pleasing outcomes in a patient seeking treatment for short lateral incisors and hypocalcification staining.
