Has any considered using dental polymers for 3d printing?

... which types?

UV-curing resins were used with syringes ... 2k-polymers too, but here you'll need very short curing times and get problems with clogging mixers ...

UV cured dental polymers are printable. They just tend to be more costly since they are made for dental applications vs plastic trinkets.
