3D printing (3DP) or Additive Manufacturing (AM) is used to convert a 3D model
into a three dimensional object and the material used for this purpose is
called 3DP material. 3D printing has begun to flourish in various application
areas in healthcare such as dental, medical, implants, drug manufacturing and
so on. The materials used for these purposes vary accordingly and can range
from plastics, resins, metals, to ceramics. For instance, while dental implants
mostly use metals and ceramics to print dental crowns, the medical industry has
its own array of bio-materials. Many such biomaterials are under research stage
and are expected to be a prominent material for the 3D printing in healthcare industry.
