3D Systems Introduces Industry’s First Multi-material, One-piece Jetted Denture Solution
2024年2月22日 - 6:05AM
Today, 3D Systems (NYSE:DDD) introduced a first-to-market solution
for jetted, monolithic (one-piece) dentures that utilizes multiple
materials to deliver a durable, long-wear, aesthetically beautiful
prosthetic to the patient. This is enabled by the formulation of
bespoke materials for both teeth and gums. These unique materials
deliver the desired combination of aesthetics, wear- and
stain-resistance in the teeth, with exceptional break resistance
(toughness and strength) in the gums. This combination results in a
denture product that is superior to all other currently available,
monolithic, jetted denture solutions. When these materials are used
as part of 3D Systems’ complete workflow solution comprising
materials, jetted 3D printing technology, software, and services,
high-volume dental laboratories can more efficiently deliver
dentures with improved performance and aesthetics, resulting in a
superior patient experience.
3D Systems’ materials scientists developed NextDent® Jet Denture
Teeth and NextDent® Jet Denture Base — the former uniquely
formulated to mimic tooth rigidity and aesthetics, and the latter
to absorb impact. When these materials are used as part of the
company’s monolithic jetted denture solution, dental labs are able
to produce dentures with exceptional performance, including high
break resistance, a particularly important customer need.
Additionally, the speed of 3D Systems’ jetting technology combined
with monolithic denture printing accelerates total production rates
in order to significantly reduce time to completion resulting in
expedited delivery to the prosthodontist and patient.
In recent months 3D Systems previewed this solution to select
customers including Glidewell, the world’s largest producer of
restorative dental devices. Stephenie Goddard, CEO, Glidewell
shared, “Glidewell prides itself on being on the forefront of
technology, and continually bringing innovation to the dental
community. Therefore, we need to collaborate with solution
providers who share our vision for the power of transformative
innovation. As a long-time 3D Systems customer, Glidewell continues
to be impressed by the company’s leadership in digital dentistry.
The capabilities presented by the new jetted denture solution are
unmatched in the industry. The combination of 3D Systems’
high-speed printing technology and its unique materials deliver
dentures with superior durability and aesthetics. I’m looking
forward to our implementation of this solution later this year, and
the benefits it will deliver not only for our business but for our
customers and their patients.”
“With each innovation to our digital dentistry portfolio, 3D
Systems has been able to help our customers transform the devices
they deliver, and how clinicians deliver patient care,” said Chuck
Stapleton, vice president & general manager, dental, 3D
Systems. “As we announce our jetted denture solution today, I’m
proud that we are once again delivering a truly unique offering to
the market. We’ve combined innovation in materials and 3D printing,
with software, post-processing, and applications expertise into our
monolithic jetted denture solution, designed for high-volume
production with unparalleled accuracy, repeatability, and lower
total cost of operation. I look forward to seeing this solution
change the trajectory of denture production, not only over the
coming months but in the years to follow.”
The company anticipates 510(k) clearance from the United States
Food & Drug Administration (FDA) for its solution in the second
half of 2024.
The adoption of 3D printing to produce prosthodontics continues
to accelerate, driven by benefits to both manufacturers and
patients alike. According to 360 Research Reports, the global 3D
Printed Dentures market size was estimated to be more than $1
billion in 2021 and is forecast to reach more than $2 billion by
2028. With 3D Systems’ digital dentistry solutions including its
solution for the production of monolithic dentures, dental
laboratories and clinics are able to produce dental devices at
dramatically increased speed, while reducing material waste and
capital equipment expenditures. Patients also experience
significant benefits, through reductions in the time it takes to
receive their prosthodontics, as well as the number of required
office visits.
3D Systems will showcase its new monolithic denture product line
along with the breadth of applications addressed by its digital
dentistry solution portfolio at LMT Lab Day, to be held February
22-24, 2024 at the Hyatt Regency Chicago (Illinois). Attendees are
invited to visit the company’s booth (A-43, B-42, East Exhibit
Hall) to learn more about how 3D Systems’ portfolio of entry-level
dental 3D printers, mid- and large-platform 3D printers, rapidly
scalable workflows and growing range of validated NextDent
materials can help expand labs and clinics. Additionally, the
company will highlight how it has validated the NextDent materials
portfolio to perform across a wide selection of the industry's most
trusted 3D printers. Attendees are also invited to participate in
3D Systems’ seminars to be held in the Comiskey Room, West Tower,
Bronze Level. For more information, please visit the company’s
