3D printers as a support tool in the dental laboratory
3D printers make life significantly easier for dental laboratories in many areas of application. Dental prostheses, bite splints, models or, for example, surgical guides can be produced more quickly, more cost-effectively and to a higher standard. The performance and efficiency of the 3D printers available at dentona mean that, in many cases, work can be completed on the very same day.
This is made possible by the sophisticated interplay of hardware and software. For example: some printers used in dental laboratories operate at a 4K resolution and a wavelength of 385 nm to achieve particularly good results. The accompanying CAD software enables the design of, for example, dental components in different layers to ensure the best possible quality.
3D printing in the dental laboratory: the process flow
The dental technicians in the dental laboratory receive orders from the practice with the necessary specifications. It is important that each case is described as precisely as possible. For example, bite splints can trigger a gag reflex in patients. A simple trick is to trim the splints at the sides. Without a 3D dental printer, a section used to have to be cut off by hand. With a printer for the dental laboratory, the dental technician can immediately design the splint as required. It then fits perfectly – and does not trigger the gag reflex.
Upon receipt of the order, the dental technicians plan the print in the CAD software. If no material specifications have been provided, they will also put forward suitable suggestions. The responsible clinician can review the design and give the go-ahead. Alternatively, the dental technicians are given free rein to carry out their work. The actual 3D-printing process takes several hours. The exact duration depends on the size of the product to be produced, the 3D printer and the material. Small printed items can usually be completed on the same day, provided work has not started too late.

Mit dem 3D-Drucker sind wir nun in der Lage, aus den Abformdaten selbst ein physisches Modell herzustellen, das alle unsere Ansprüche erfüllt: zeichnungsscharf und dimensionstreu. Wir arbeiten seit Jahren mit der 3Shape-Software und mussten die gewohnten Prozesse für den Einsatz des 3D-Druckers nicht verändern. Der Anwender ist mit einem 3D-Drucker von dentona nicht auf ein System festgelegt. Die zum Drucker mitgelieferte Slicing-Software liest jede STL-Datei. Somit kann die additive Fertigung problemlos in den Prozess eingebunden werden.
3D dental printers: Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
What characterises the 3D dental printers on offer at dentona?
The 3D printers for dental laboratories are state of the art and come from leading companies. They offer a special range of functions. For example, larger products can also be produced - prints of up to 3 x 3 metres are possible.
What are the specific positive effects of the performance and effectiveness of 3D printers?
Production is not only faster. There is less material loss than with traditional manufacturing processes. In addition, fewer subsequent adjustments are necessary for the patient, which is more comfortable for them.
What materials do 3D printers use for the dental laboratory?
In general, a wide variety of materials can be used. This depends on the respective device. We particularly rely on high-quality dental printer resins. This is a flexible and resilient biomaterial that can also be easily coloured. Resins make it possible to print lifelike prostheses, for example.
