3D Printing in Dentistry

An additive manufacturing technology that allows us to fabricate dental appliances, surgical guides, and models layer by layer directly from a digital scan.

Why It Matters

It drastically reduces waiting times. Instead of sending impressions to an external lab and waiting weeks, we can often print surgical guides or temporary teeth right here in the clinic, increasing accuracy and speed.

Clinical Details

• Materials: Biocompatible resins (SLA/DLP printing) and sometimes sintered metal.
• Uses: Surgical guides for implants, night guards, and temporary crowns.

FAQ

Are 3D printed teeth permanent?

Usually, 3D printed teeth are used for "temporaries" while your final Zirconium or E-Max crown is being milled.

Is it safe?

Yes, we use strictly FDA-approved biocompatible resins.
