Method and system for fabricating object featuring properties of a hard tissue

A method of additive manufacturing an object featuring properties of a hard bodily tissue, the method comprising:

• dispensing and solidifying a plurality of non-biological material formulations to sequentially form a plurality of hardened layers in a configured pattern corresponding to a shape of the object, wherein for at least a portion of said layers, wherein said dispensing comprises:
• forming voxel elements containing different material formulations at interlaced locations to form a three-dimensional textured region spanning over said portion and comprising a plurality of texture elements each comprising an interior portion surrounded by a wall portion, wherein said interior and said wall portions are made of different material formulations and wherein said material formulations and said interlaced locations are selected such that said textured region exhibits, once hardened, a stress variation of at most ±20% over a strain range of from about 0.1% to about 0.3%;
• and
• dispensing at least one of said material formulations to form a shell at least partially surrounding said textured region.
