3D Printing is used in various application areas in healthcare such as dental, medical, implants, drug manufacturing and so on. The materials used for these purposes vary accordingly. While dental implants mostly use metals and ceramics to print dental crowns, the medical industry has its own array of bio-materials.
Reduction in prices of printers in healthcare 3D printing is estimated due to the growing demand and possible subsidies from governments as part of research grants as well. The commonly used materials for 3D printing of healthcare are plastics, metals, ceramics, donor cells, bone cement, biomaterials etc. Metal powders and biomaterials are expensive, wherein biomaterials are under research stage and are expected to be a prominent material for the 3D printing in healthcare industry. Between 2014 and 2020, it is estimated that there will be a difference in the market share among printers, materials, scanners and software. By 2020, materials are expected to have a high market share due to its rapid growth. Reduction in prices of most metals is one of the important factors influencing its growth in various applications. Plastics take second place in terms of revenue even though its volume consumed is far more than metals, since metals are comparatively much more expensive than plastics.
