3D printers are not accurate enough at this time to print such a detailed object. I am printing a large project with many interlocking pieces. The prints are always slightly too large due to the bulge of the deposited plastic as it cools. You can compensate by making the piece slightly smaller, but it is never a perfect fit. In addition, the smallest layer right now is .1 mm, which is not detailed enough for a tooth mold. For a tooth mold, I would want it perfect.
