The development of three-dimensional printing technology (3D printing) has revolutionized the dental industry by providing a rapid, dependable, and affordable way to create a variety of dental products, including denture bases. This review article presents in-depth research on polymeric materials and their effect on different properties and aspects of dentures manufactured by 3D printing processes. This study indicated that Poly (methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) is a popular material in the 3D printing process of dentures. Despite its widespread use in dentures, more research is required to overcome some disadvantages like brittleness and poor mechanical qualities by utilizing additives to this material for improvement. The polyether ether ketone (PEEK) has remarkable mechanical and thermal properties and is perfect for dentures. A variety of medical and dental applications can benefit from Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) toughness and chemical resistance, our review investigation uncovered several potential applications of ABS for printed dentures. Polylactic acid (PLA) is a biocompatible and biodegradable polymer derived from renewable resources and it has been used in dentures. However, additional study is required to enhance its performance in dentures. Furthermore, it was found that the most appropriate 3D printing technology for denture printing is the vat photopolymerization process. Advances in material qualities are assisting in the durable and biocompatible dental prostheses that meet the evolving needs of patients and doctors. Furthermore, in-depth evaluations of environmental sustainability and biocompatibility are essential for advancing the discipline ethically and responsibly.
