3D Systems has revealed several new innovations including the NextDent® Jetted Denture Solution for multi-material monolithic dentures, as well as previews of its solutions for night guards and direct printed aligners.
The NextDent 300 is part of 3D Systems’ FDA-cleared complete workflow solution that enables high-volume dental laboratories to rapidly produce dentures.
Foundational to 3D Systems’ multi-material, monolithic jetted denture solution is the NextDent® 300 MultiJet 3D printer. This unique printer facilitates rapid production of patient-specific dentures that are fully cured and safe to handle without the need for additional post-curing steps. To complement the NextDent 300, 3D Systems’ materials scientists developed NextDent® Jet Teeth—formulated to mimic tooth rigidity and aesthetics—and NextDent® Jet Base, to absorb impact.
With the introduction of the NextDent 300 for multi-material printing, 3D Systems is looking to the future with the next application of this technology for night guards—a rapidly growing market segment driven by the need to prevent damage to teeth from night grinding.
Finally, with the exceptional legacy 3D Systems has established for itself as a key supplier of 3D printing technology to the clear aligner industry, its technology today enables the manufacture of roughly one million patient-specific clear aligners daily across this market.
