Make sense. But then one of the item on his table is an orthopaedic insole, an item that is custom made for one's foot. I can totally see orthopaedist, dentist etc... have a 3D printer in their office to manufacture one-of-a-kind insole, dental cap, or even prescription lenses.
- Qworg 13y agoInvisalign braces and Vivera retainers are already 3D printed (using UV photopolymer and a laser). They just do it at a factory, because the 3D printer that can produce that level of detail/strength is terribly expensive.
- zwieback 13y agoExactly. I need those orthotics and I'd love to be able to get a custom version for less than the pros charge now. I think both orthopedists and dentists already have pretty sophisticated 3D tools today, though.
