3D technologies for the dental industry

We provide the dental industry with our comprehensive range of products and an array of service offerings.

The advent of 3D technologies has revolutionized the dental field, empowering dental professionals to perform tasks with enhanced efficiency, accuracy, and novel capabilities. These technologies have proven to be cost-effective solutions that expedite processes and open doors to unprecedented achievements. From educational purposes and treatment planning to aligner models, surgical implant guides, and occlusal splints, the applications are boundless.

3D scanners play a pivotal role in designing personalized treatment, whether in chair or in the lab, they offer meticulous precision while tailoring the design to each patient’s unique anatomy and without all the mess and time traditional impressions take.

Furthermore, the utilization of 3D printers is steadily on the rise within the dental realm. These printers are increasingly employed for same-day crowns, bulk models for thermoforming and even to aid dental surgeons in mapping out and illustrating intricate procedures prior to execution. This advancement not only enhances the accuracy of treatments but also offers a remarkable visual tool for patient education and engagement.

Formlabs Dental Case Study: Dr. Michael Scherer

Find out how Dr. Michael Scherer is using 3D printing for digital dentistry to create bleaching trays, bite guards, and surgical guides.

“The possibilities of 3D printing in dentistry are limitless. In dentistry right now, digital technology is really exciting. Gone are the days of the old-fashioned gooey, messy impression. Having a 3D printer in my practice has literally changed everything I do. I can do a host of different things with it, including making my own bleaching trays, bite guards, or even surgical guides.”
