A comparison between customized clear and removable orthodontic appliances manufactured using RP and CNC techniques

Conclusions: In this research, 6 different case studies and CAD-FEM simulations showed that, to fabricate an efficient clear and removable orthodontic aligner, it is necessary to consider a compromise of several factors. A lower staircase effect (lower layer thickness) and a higher physical prototype accuracy allow a better control of tooth movement. (Source: Dental Materials)
