Dimensional accuracy and flexural strength of 3D-printed photopolymer resins for point-of-care surgical guides after steam and plasma sterilization: an in-vitro comparative study

Abstract Background Three-dimensional (3D) printing enables the fabrication of patient-specific guides (PSGs) for oral and craniomaxillofacial procedures. Before clinical use, guides must be sterilized, which may compromise dimensional accuracy and mechanical performance. The eff...
