Experimental Researches Regarding Mechanical Behaviour of Dental Prototypes realized by Additive Technologies

Abstract

The paper presents the behaviour of dental models subjected to mechanical loads. Maxillary dental arcade was obtained by additive technologies – fused deposition modelling and digital light processing. Also, it were used different materials - ABS, CarbonFil, biocompatible ABS, photopolymeric resin and the dental prototypes were tested in two areas - molar and central incisor zones with a transducer force HV 500. The experimental results highlighted the behaviour of the dental models realized by additive technologies in order to determine the maximum compressive force and maximum deformation of the maxillary in function of the material and the technology used.
