[QUOTE="2thm8kr, post: 319324, member: 1367"] Maybe in some parallel dimension. Printed material may be stronger in some aspects, but it is brittle and porous, not easily repairable. Certainly faster to manufacturer, but the materials are not there yet. Additive manufactured dentures are the future when the materials catch up. Who cares if it takes a few hours to mill a denture or anything else, that's what robots are for? Labor slaves, at least until they revolt. It is still way faster than traditional methods. I'm not just sitting around watching the mill, I have plenty of it her things to keep me occupied while any type of restorations are milling. Milled PMMA is repairable with conventional materials that most labs/dental offices have on hand. We have several try in prototype Nextdent printed dentures out in the wild, they break. They have been remade a few times while getting a milled denture ready. I know there are guys delivering those, but I couldn't with a clear conscience. [/QUOTE]
