The utilization of computer-aided design and production has become increasingly prevalent in the dental industry, as in many other fields. Additive manufacturing, a computer-aided production method, has brought about numerous advantages such as fast and precise production, design freedom, and cost and time savings. It is anticipated that 3D printers will become the primary method for digital processing in dentistry in the future. The objective of this article is to offer a comprehensive introduction to the present-day manufacturing methods for fixed prosthetic rehabilitation, focusing on the 3D printing manufacturing and photopolymer resin materials employed in these technologies.
