Abstract

Application of additive manufacturing methods is escalating in numerous sectors including the medical field owing to its enhanced productivity, functionality, patient-specific fabrication, and affordability. Additive manufacturing is considered a digital manufacturing technique that is rapidly transforming the medical space in terms of printing distinctive body parts with complex shapes and proposing customized and tailored resolutions to individual patients. In previous times, Additive Manufacturing (AM) is employed as a flexible and profitable technique for fabricating geometrically intricate medical organs, dental implants, and bones. Though patient-specific implants for bone disease, injury, and organ replacement are still a significant challenge for medical practitioners and researchers. In spite of the broad studies which were concluded on the characteristics of AM materials, there is still a necessity for a vigorous understanding of application-specific needs, processes, challenges, and considerations related to these techniques. Thus, the aim of this study is to present a comprehensive review of the most general AM processes, types of materials employed in AM, and applications of various AM techniques in the biomedical field. This study also outlines current limitations and challenges, which inhibit medical sciences to completely benefiting from the advanced AM opportunities, comprising production volume, post-processing, standards compliance, product quality, materials range, and maintenance.
