The aim of this scoping review is to assess the application of new 3D printed polymeric materials in orthodontics, including polyamide-12 (PA-12) and Shape Memory Polymers (SMPs).
A search for articles published until January 2023 was carried out using PubMed, Scopus, Web of Knowledge, Lilacs, Opengrey, Embase and Cochrane Library databases and by applying the search terms (orthodontic* OR paediatric* OR paedodontic*) AND ("3D printed" OR "three-dimensional printed") AND (polymer* OR material* OR resin* OR technopolymer*). Additional records were also screened through hand or electronic search. No restriction in terms of language or publication period was applied.
Due to their mechanical, aesthetic and biocompatibility characteristics, PA12 and SMPs can be used in orthodontic practice. However, additional studies should be performed to evaluate the clinical efficiency of these recent materials.
本范围综述旨在评估新型 3D 打印聚合材料在正畸学中的应用，包括聚酰胺-12（PA-12）和形状记忆聚合物（SMP）。
使用 PubMed、Scopus、Web of Knowledge、Lilacs、Opengrey、Embase 和 Cochrane Library 数据库，以及应用搜索词（orthodontic或paediatric或paedodontic*）和（“3D 打印”或“three-dimensional printed”）和（polymer或material或resin或technopolymer），对截至 2023 年 1 月发表的文章进行检索。此外，还通过手工或电子检索筛选了其他记录。未对语言或出版期限施加任何限制。
由于 PA12 和 SMP 具有机械、美观和生物相容性等特点，因此可用于正畸实践。然而，应开展更多研究来评估这些新型材料的临床效果。
