Show AllDescriptionContents, Table & Figures ListOrder Information
From its humble beginnings in the late 1980s, through to the global force that it is today, the capabilities of 3D printing technology have expanded dramatically, to establish itself as an attractive manufacturing solution for prototyping and production. Conferring advantages such as shorter lead times, reduced waste and opportunity for mass customisation, the potential of 3D printing was quickly realised and has gone from strength to strength since. One of the key industries to have successfully leveraged these advantages is the medical and dental industry. 3D printing allows the production of a wide range of devices such as hearing aids to Invisalign® aligners to prosthetic limbs which are tailored to meet the specific needs of the patient while adhering to a narrow regulatory framework. The range of applications is not limited to medical devices or prosthetics: as the development of 3D bioprinting continues to evolve, there is scope for the implantation of living tissues as part of regenerative medicine. Key players are now capitalising on this potential, and the size of the opportunity presented by 3D printing in the medical industry will exceed $8.1 billion by 2029. This rapid growth is analysed, and implications evaluated in the latest market intelligence report from IDTechEx Technology Analysts Dr Bryony Core and Dr Nadia Tsao: 3D Printing in the Medical and Dental Industry 2019 - 2029: Trends, Opportunities and Outlook.
