3D printing: dental prosthetics

Our dental Laboratory Cristal, the reference in additive manufacturing for dental prostheses !

Health is gradually becoming digital in order to improve the daily lives of professionals in the dental sector. And digitization is particularly revolutionizing dentistry and more specifically dental prostheses! 

The traditional expertise of how to manufacture dental prostheses is giving way to innovation. New technologies today represent an obvious lever for performance and cost reduction for dentists and dental technicians due to 3D printing.

The advantages of 3D printing

At Prodways Group, we work for the innovation of the design of your high-end dental models with additive manufacturing.

1. To improve the daily lives of professionals in the dental sector. 
2. To optimize patient satisfaction 

4 advantages of additive manufacturing for 3D printed dental models :

1. Incomparable precision compared to the traditional method
   Prodways industrial 3D printers have a very high resolution level (up to 32 microns per pixel) for an optimal degree of precision
2. Maximal patient comfort 
   The CAD design of the 3D printed dental models enables a natural look and a tailor-made fit to the patient’s mouth for immediate comfort from the first fitting
3. More reliable and faster production 
   Additive manufacturing tools ensure a consistent level of quality and better management of production deadlines. It takes only 2 to 3 minutes for a complete 3D impression 
4. Guaranteed cost control 
   Savings arise from the digitization of the impression and the material used
