Description
A team including Yousif Al-Dulaijan tests how polishing affects the surface of 3D-printed false teeth. Printed short-term crowns are now common, but a rough surface can gather plaque and wear fast. The team made discs from two printed resins and one classic dental plastic. Each set was left rough, scrubbed with pumice, glazed, or polished with a chairside kit.
The classic plastic came out roughest and one printed resin smoothest. Glaze and pumice beat the chairside kit, and unpolished pieces fared worst. The paper backs glaze as a simple step to help printed teeth last and stay clean.
