[Manufacturing of zirconia restorations by means of additive fabrication. Part I].

Additive fabrication or layer-by-layer synthesis technologies is one of the most dynamically developing areas of digital production. Modern additive technologies can be used to fabricate zirconia-based restorations. The first part of this article will present the fabrication of zirconia restorations using additive technologies such as stereolithography, digital light processing, selective laser sintering, selective laser melting and inkjet printing, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of the mentioned technologies.
