Abstract

The practice of additive manufacturing, sometimes referred to as three-dimensional (3D) printing, has become a strong technology with the potential to transform the practice of medicine. This technology is ideally suited for uses like personalized implants, prostheses, and surgical models because it enables the precise construction of complex structures. To further enable the development of patient-specific medicines, 3D printing can be used to create novel drug delivery systems and tissue-engineered constructions. An overview of the state of 3D printing technology in the medical industry is given in this review study. This review covers the various uses for 3D printing, such as the production of implants and prosthetics, medication delivery methods, and tissue engineering. Additionally, this review examines the application of 3D printing in surgical education and its potential effect on healthcare costs. While 3D printing has a lot of potential to advance medicine, there are obstacles that need to be overcome as well. Important factors to take into account are the creation of biocompatible materials and the durability of 3D-printed devices and constructions. In the end, 3D printing has the potential to be a versatile and effective instrument in the medical industry. There is a good chance that more people will use technology as it develops. Realizing the full benefits of 3D printing in medicine will require cooperation between scientists, doctors, and business executives.
