A dental model, includes (a) an upper segment, the upper segment having a shape corresponding to at least a portion of a dental arch of a human patient; (b) a base segment having an external surface and a bottom surface; (c) at least one internal cavity formed in the base segment, and optionally the upper segment, the at least one internal cavity extending through the bottom surface; and (d) at least one wash channel extending from the external surface of the base segment through the base segment and into the at least one internal cavity.

Rapid wash system for additive manufacturing

A method of making at least one three-dimensional object by additive manufacturing, including: (a) producing, on a carrier platform, by bottom-up stereolithography from a single batch of polymerizable resin, a composite article comprising and produced in the sequence of: (i) an open lattice layer on the carrier platform; then (ii) a frangible layer on the lattice layer; and then (iii) at least one three-dimensional object on the frangible layer; then (b) cleaning the composite article with a wash liquid while on the carrier platform; (c) optionally separating the composite article from the carrier platform; and (d) optionally further curing the composite article; and then (e) separating the at least one three-dimensional object from the lattice layer by cutting or breaking the frangible layer.
