On February 16, 2023, according to Mohou.com, Stratasys recently announced the launch of TrueDent™, the first color permanent complete denture 3D printing solution. The TrueDent resin material it uses can help dental technicians with one continuous print. Produces gums that precisely match the structure, tone and translucency of teeth for a natural-looking finish that lasts forever.
TrueDent is an FDA-certified (Class II) dental resin specifically designed for the manufacture of dental appliances, including removable prostheses.
The resin material was specially developed for the Stratasys® J5 DentaJet® 3D printer and GrabCAD® Print software platform. This comprehensive solution allows dental laboratories to streamline workflows, reduce denture processing time, increase production scale and create custom designs. dental appliances.
TrueDent is designed to solve the following problems for patients and dental laboratories:
● Reduce the number of consultations and shorten the time for measurement, adjustment and adjustment.
● Maintain high-fidelity matching during scanning, design and prototyping.
● This scalable digital solution is reproducible and enables the continuous production of precise, well-fitting prostheses.
● Streamline workflows to improve efficiency and shorten scan cycles to delivery.
△Use the new TrueDent resin material to 3D print dentures to create beautiful dental appliances
“Currently, printed dentures and dental appliances still have to be designed and manufactured in several parts, which are then glued together. The TrueDent solution using Stratasys systems and software eliminates much of this stress. It simplifies the process and reduces costs. »
Stratasys estimates that the global denture market is worth US$5.5 billion. However, due to the shortage of technicians in dental laboratories, meeting the growing demand for global production of dentures and dental applications through traditional processes is a significant challenge. According to an iData study, more than 4.2 million complete dentures were manufactured in the United States in 2021 and 18 million complete dentures were sold worldwide. Of these, only 5% are produced using 3D printing solutions.
TrueDent solutions offer a scalable alternative with digital workflows that deliver predictable, comprehensive, high-quality results.
“The new solution will revolutionize the dental industry and we believe it will help customers significantly reduce the time and costs of manufacturing dentures and temporary restorations. Stratasys’ 3D printing product portfolio will continue to promote the development of digital dentistry, through hardware, resin Materials and software offering differentiated solutions.
Patent-pending TrueDent resin is currently only available in the United States and is only compatible with Stratasys J5 DentaJet printers. The equipment will be unveiled at the North American Dental Industry Show in Chicago February 23-25, 2023.
