ABSTRACT
With the rapid development of 3D printing, it is widely used in the field of cranio-maxillofacial surgery. Through the individualized production of 3D printing, the backward mode of traditional production relying on manual shaping has been changed to meet the needs of different patients. However, as no clear specification exists for the performance requirements of 3D printing metal powder for cranio-maxillofacial surgery, its long-term development is not feasible. In this paper, the preparation technologies of 3D printing metal powder for cranio-maxillofacial prostheses (i.e., gas atomization, rotating electrode atomization, and radio frequency plasma spheroidization) and 3D printing forming technologies (i.e., selective laser melting, electron beam selective melting, and laser-engineered net shaping) are introduced. The performance requirements of 3D printing metal powder for cranio-maxillofacial prostheses are then summarized according to the characteristics of the preparation and forming technologies described.
