[QUOTE="DMC, post: 12143, member: 430"] anyone heard of the CAD/CAM wire bending machine? Like an automated brake line bender, used in the automotive field, only smaller. Take a scanned model, or a digital impression file....draw a line on teeth on the screen...press button! Can a monkey do this in five years? Yup. Objet 3D printer that can mix up to 30 different materials for the printing of plastics?? anyone? Print flexible clear, or ridgid pink, or even harder tooth colored that transitions into enamel and all blends in between in one session? No more buying teeth and grinding. CAD Dentures?? Yup! There are a few companies on this path. Waiting for the software and final touches to be ready for market. Also FDA approval of the printed polymers.

That's a little of my knowlege. [IMG]http://glennhager.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/6-mil.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
