Our online store features a range of dedicated dental 3D printers, oral 3D scanners, applicable filaments, and software that can be used for a variety of applications within the dental industry. In this article, we talk about what you will need at your practice and the various processes that are involved with 3D printing for dentistry applications.
It Starts with a 3D Scan
The process of 3D printing for dentistry applications begins with an intraoral scan performed by the dental professional. This scan can be done with a handheld 3D oral scanner, which you can buy in our online store. The purpose of such a scan is to create an accurate digital representation of a patient’s mouth, gums, and teeth. This digital scan can be used to create retainers, fillings, crowns, and dentures when sent to a dental lab or imported into dental design software.
Design the Ideal Solution
Whether your patient requires a retainer or needs a complete set of dentures, the 3D model that has been created from the scan can be used to create a design that will not only fit the patient’s mouth perfectly, but also reduce the need for constant fitting sessions, which would be the case with more conventional methods. We offer a complete dental design software suite to give you access to various useful design tools that can be used during the design process. Most dental labs can also provide solutions for digital dental scans and designs.
Printing the Design
Once the design is finalised, the 3D model can be transferred to a dental 3D printer, where it can be printed. 3D Unique offers a wide range of dental 3D printers that can deliver solutions for 3D printing for dentistry applications. We also offer 3D-related services and support to ensure that your dental practice can make the most of 3D printing and give your patients the best possible results for retainers, fillings, crowns, and dentures.
