3D printing is a process where “solid objects are created by ‘printing’ successive layers of material to replicate a shape modeled in a computer” (Whitaker, 2014). Significant advances have been made since the first 3D printer was introduced in the 1980s by Charles Hull (Flynt, 2018), including in the health care field.
