In this article, an overview of three dimensional printing, also known as additive manufacturing (AM), with a focus on polymers is presented. As a starting point the additive manufacturing concept is described. Several well established technologies, including their advantages and drawbacks and a list of polymers, which are commonly used in commercial printers are evaluated and outlined. The additive manufacturing applications together with the key developments are also presented. The article further highlights major industrial applications, directions for promising research are identified, possible full exploitation potential of additive manufacturing in industries and finally outlines future challenges in this rapidly growing industries.

Ossifying fibroma (OF) is a rare, benign, fibro-osseous lesion of the jawbone characterised by replacement of the normal bone with fibrous tissue. The fibrous tissue shows varying amount of calcified structures resembling bone and/or cementum. The central variant of OF is rare, and shows predilection for mandible among the jawbone. Although it is classified as fibro-osseous lesion, it clinically behaves as a benign tumour and can grow to large size, causing bony swelling and facial asymmetry. This paper reports a case of large central OF of mandible in a 40-year-old male patient. The lesion was treated by segmental resection of mandible. Reconstruction of the surgical defect was done using avascular fibula bone graft. Role of three-dimensional printing of jaw and its benefits in surgical planning and reconstruction are also highlighted.
