To mitigate the risks associated with 3D printing, proper safety protocols must be established. These include using protective equipment such as masks and gloves, maintaining adequate ventilation in printing areas, and selecting safer materials with minimal toxic emissions. Regular monitoring of air quality and worker health is also recommended.
Furthermore, the development of biocompatible materials specifically designed for toxicological applications can reduce the hazard potential. Advances in materials science are critical to ensuring that new materials are safe for both users and the environment.
