“…When comparing the titanium implants only, the use of 3D printed custom-made implants resulted in more satisfactory results than the use of pre-curved titanium mesh implants, which are more useful in treatment of smaller cranial defects (48,49). Due to their mechanical stability and satisfactory cosmetic results, custom made titanium implants can also be used in the treatment of bone defects after craniofacial or maxillofacial skeleton resections (50,51) or compound injuries, which may be especially diffi cult to reconstruct (52,53). Also, titanium miniplates became a routine mean of cranial bone fl ap fi xation (54), replacing osteosuture and achieving satisfactory results (54) including a reduced osteolysis and complication rate (25).…”

INTRODUCTION: Despite of being considered a routine procedure, cranioplasty is associated with a substantial risk of failure, or postoperative complications. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Postoperative clinical course and rate of complications was assessed in patients undergoing cranioplasty during years 2015-2019 in a retrospective fashion. RESULTS: The most frequent condition requiring cranioplasty was a presence of bone defect after a decompressive craniectomy for traumatic brain injury (45 patients). Revision was needed in 9 cases (12.68 %), removal of the bone fl ap was necessary in 5 patients (7.04 %). The most common complication observed was an unintended intraoperative durotomy, occurring in 9 patients (12.68 %), which was, however, not associated with an increased risk of reoperation. Postoperative improvement of motor functions was observed in 7 patients (9.86 %). Improvement of consciousness occurred in 8 patients (11.27 %). Early cranioplasty was associated with signifi cantly higher odds for surgical revision, patients after previous craniectomy for traumatic brain injury had signifi cantly increased odds for the overall occurrence of complications. CONCLUSIONS: After a cranial reconstruction, complications with a various degree of severity may occur and even the result in need of the implant removal. Postoperative improvement of focal neuro-defi cit is possible as well as improvement on the level of patient's consciousness (Tab. 2, Fig. 2, Ref. 61).

“…They reported a 100% survival rate of these implants at a one-year follow-up with minimum complications [ 160 ]. Park et al (2020) reported a case in which a 3D printed implant was placed in a patient with an atrophic mandible due to osteoradionecrosis who received radiation treatment post squamous cell carcinoma resection [ 165 ]. Their results revealed that 3D printed implants with a pre-mounted dental implant resulted in a better mandibular function [ 165 ].…”

Dental 3D-Printing: Transferring Art from the Laboratories to the Clinics

The rise of three-dimensional (3D) printing technology has changed the face of dentistry over the past decade. 3D printing is a versatile technique that allows the fabrication of fully automated, tailor-made treatment plans, thereby delivering personalized dental devices and aids to the patients. It is highly efficient, reproducible, and provides fast and accurate results in an affordable manner. With persistent efforts among dentists for refining their practice, dental clinics are now acclimatizing from conventional treatment methods to a fully digital workflow to treat their patients. Apart from its clinical success, 3D printing techniques are now employed in developing haptic simulators, precise models for dental education, including patient awareness. In this narrative review, we discuss the evolution and current trends in 3D printing applications among various areas of dentistry. We aim to focus on the process of the digital workflow used in the clinical diagnosis of different dental conditions and how they are transferred from laboratories to clinics. A brief outlook on the most recent manufacturing methods of 3D printed objects and their current and future implications are also discussed.

“…Further, the mechanical strength of these materials, evaluated via both in vitro and in vivo studies, is on par with natural bone and dental tissues, which makes them the most common implant materials (Li J. et al, 2020). However, these materials undergo degradation during interaction with the biological fluids, leading to corrosion and wear, which can be deposited in the surrounding cells or tissues and cause inflammation (Apaza-Bedoya et al, 2017;Park et al, 2020). Furthermore, osteoporosis, immunocompromised patients of diabetes [3.89% of failure rate (Chrcanovic et al, 2014)], Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) condition [10% of failure rate (May et al, 2016)], smoking and radiotherapy in head and neck cancers are the factors that can lead to dental implant failures (Bazli et al, 2020).…”

“…Generally, titanium and its alloys, such as nitinol were used as a common and successful materials for dental implant applications (Shah et al, 2019). However, these materials are identified to undergo corrosion and wear, which can lead to degradation into their ionic state, deposition in the surrounding tissues and inflammation (Park et al, 2020).…”

Dental implants resemble synthetic materials, mainly designed as teeth-mimics to replace the damaged or irregular teeth. Specifically, they are demarcated as a surgical fixture of artificial implant materials, which are placed into the jawbone, and are allowed to be fused with the bone, similar to natural teeth. Dental implants may be categorized into endosteal, subperiosteal, and zygomatic classes, based on the placement of the implant “in the bone” or on top of the jawbone, under the gum tissue. In general, titanium and its alloys have found everyday applications as common, successful dental implant materials. However, these materials may also undergo corrosion and wear, which can lead to degradation into their ionic states, deposition in the surrounding tissues, as well as inflammation. Consequently, nanomaterials are recently introduced as a potential alternative to replace the conventional titanium-based dental implants. However, nanomaterials synthesized via physical and chemical approaches are either costly, non/less biocompatible, or toxic to the bone cells. Hence, biosynthesized nanomaterials, or bionanomaterials, are proposed in recent studies as potential non-toxic dental implant candidates. Further, nanobiomaterials with plant origins, such as nanocelluloses, nanometals, nanopolymers, and nanocarbon materials, are identified to possess enhanced biocompatibility, bioavailability and no/less cytotoxicity with antimicrobial efficacy at low costs and ease of fabrication. In this minireview, we present an outline of recent nanobiomaterials that are extensively investigated for dental implant applications. Additionally, we discuss their action mechanisms, applicability, and significance as dental implants, shortcomings, and future perspectives.
