Abstract

The implementation of computer-aided technologies and systems has paved the way towards a significant advancement of the conventional modelling and manufacture of dental replacements. In this research the focus is on approach that combines reverse engineering as a modelling technique and rapid manufacture, i.e., selective laser melting, as the manufacturing technology, with special emphases on material selection in the fabrication of removable partial dentures. The paper presents the results of a biocompatibility analysis of the F75 Co-Cr dental alloy using the MTT eluate test.
