ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
To evaluate the fabrication trueness of additively manufactured maxillary definitive casts with various tooth preparations fabricated with different 3-dimensional (3D) printers and print orientations.METHODS:
A maxillary typodont with tooth preparations for a posterior 3-unit fixed partial denture, lateral incisor crown, central incisor and canine veneers, first premolar and second molar inlays, and a first molar crown was digitized with an industrial scanner. This scan file was used to fabricate definitive casts with a digital light processing (DLP) or stereolithography (SLA) 3D printer in different orientations (0-degree, 30-degree, 45-degree, and 90-degree) (n = 7). All casts were digitized with the same scanner, and the deviations within each preparation site were evaluated. Generalized linear model analysis was used for statistical analysis (α = 0.05).RESULTS:
The interaction between the 3D printer and the print orientation affected measured deviations within all preparations (P ≤ 0.001) except for the lateral incisor crown and canine veneer (P ≥ 0.094), which were affected only by the main factors (P < 0.001). DLP-90 mostly led to the highest and DLP-0 mostly resulted in the lowest deviations within posterior tooth preparations (P ≤ 0.014). DLP-30 led to the lowest deviations within the first premolar inlay and DLP-45 led to the lowest deviations within the central incisor veneer preparation (P ≤ 0.045).CONCLUSIONS:
Posterior preparations of tested casts had the highest trueness with DLP-0 or DLP-30, while central incisor veneer preparations had the highest trueness with DLP-45. DLP-90 led to the lowest trueness for most of the tooth preparations. CLINICALSIGNIFICANCE:
Definitive casts with tooth preparations fabricated with the tested DLP 3D printer and the print orientation adjusted on tooth preparation may enable well-fitting restorations. However, 90-degree print orientation should be avoided with this 3D printer, as it led to the lowest fabrication trueness.Palabras clave
