Abstract

Custom dentures, as an important oral rehabilitation device, are of great significance to the comfort and quality of life of patients. There are many inconveniences in the traditional denture manufacturing process, such as long production cycles, poor adaptability, and high production costs. This paper aims to investigate the application of 3D printing technology in custom denture manufacturing, and explore its significance and prospects in patient personalized needs, manufacturing processes, and future development. By analyzing the technical characteristics of patient oral data acquisition, digital processing, design optimization, and manufacturing processes, the advantages, challenges, and prospects of 3D printing technology in custom denture manufacturing are revealed. Through this research, it is hoped to provide more insights and support for technological innovation in the medical device industry and patient personalized needs.
