Mandible 3D scan and print

Through the use of a tomography, the aim is to create a three-dimensional model of a jaw, in order to help dentists to be able to perform dental surgeries before carrying them out on real patients, in addition to the creation and analysis of jaw prostheses.

Objective

• Printing of the 3D model of the jaw for practice and help in operating techniques. • Improvements in prototyping material and application to prostheses.
