Additive manufacturing for Dentistry: A comprehensive review of techniques and applications.
Article in Progress in materials science, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The advancement of effective and versatile additive manufacturing (AM) techniques, also known as 3D printing, represents a revolutionary shift in modern manufacturing processes. This transformative technology has opened remarkable opportunities for the mass customization of medical devices, signaling a shift toward truly personalized medicine. In dentistry specifically, AM has gained considerable attention, offering innovative solutions for fabricating a wide range of products, including dental implants, prostheses, dental devices, drug-delivery systems, and much more. This review provides a comprehensive analysis of the seven major categories of 3D-printing techniques (vat photopolymerization, material jetting, binder jetting, material extrusion, powder bed fusion, sheet lamination, and directed energy deposition), as classified by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM). Functional descriptions based on its existing applications are discussed in detail, and future applications based on their expected benefits and potential drawbacks are also addressed. This study emphasizes the potential of AM in dental applications, highlighting its growing capabilities and its critical role in defining the future of dentistry. The findings illustrate current advancements and outline a roadmap for continued innovation and wider implementation within the industry.
