Abstract

See full text

Methods of fabricating dental prostheses are provided that include the steps of providing a powder of a dental material, and then selectively melting the powder of the dental material to produce a functionally graded layer of the dental material. Additional layers of functionally graded dental material are then built on top of the initial layer of dental material to thereby produce a three-dimensional dental prosthesis having a functionally graded structure and a desired physical geometry. Dental prostheses produced by the foregoing methods are also provided.
