One of the peculiarities of the Medicine industry is its “patient-centered nature of
delivering services.”

It makes it naturally grueling and demanding. While quality service should
be guaranteed, “cheap may have ceased in its dictionary if it ever was.”

A physician has to
particularize every stage of treatment to suit a particular patient, regardless of a limit in
resources. However, with the development of the 3D printing technology in medicine, costs
have
become bearable with full customization of resources. Some of the ways in which “3D
printing technology has impacted the Medicine industry include digitalizing the dental category,
enabling an average cost of prosthesis and fitting in of implants.”

The dental department has gained much from 3D printing. Whenever a dentist makes a
mold of your dental formula, they have to keep it. Besides, the materials used in the molding are
seldom pleasant to bear. But with 3D scanning, an orthodontist easily plasters his models and
appliances without bothering their client. Also, the technology saves time, cost and space
simultaneously. The 3D scan is stored in a computer system and; thus, no need for further scans
in case need be. The “cost for storage rooms for the models reduces significantly” too.

Apparently, 3D printing is the future of dentistry because of the way it digitalizes the career to
suit our immediate needs in an intelligent manner.
The “cost of acquiring a prosthetic body organ has reduced since the invention of 3D
printing.”

For instance, the acquisition that cost one 1,000$ now costs far much less. Volunteers
who do it out of passion often make 3D scanned prosthetic body parts, and sell them cheaply or
give them out at no cost. The prosthetics achieved since the discovery are innumerable owing to
the low cost. Indeed, we owe gratitude to this wonderful invention.
Fitting of implants, too, has been made more achievable by the 3D printing technology.
Coming up with the appropriate model of implant consumes lots of time, in conjunction with a
