3D printing is generating increased interest in the medical sector, namely in orthopaedics and dentistry, but there is no evidence that 3D-printed implants are as effective or safe as “classical” products. Yet they can currently be used without restrictions by doctors, even when they are “at high risk” (that is, more often than not, implantable).
