Production of polymer resin based dental brackets with 3D printer

In this study, 20 brackets were created using polymer acrylic transparency and resin printer using 3D SLA printing techniques. The density of the brackets formed was measured and the density value of 90 mm was found. In addition, the estimated placement of the brackets was made using a real tooth mold with the GOM software and a color change chart was observed by selecting the medium with a pH value of 4.5. It has been determined that the brackets produced here undergo a color change with 0.456. However, since there is information in the literature that color change up to 2 tons is insignificant in clinical studies, this change has not been taken into account. As a result of the study, it was recommended to be used in dental applications by using the fast 3D production method, which is a resin-based and easy production technique with a transparent appearance.
