Semtner Dental utilizes cutting-edge 3D printing technology to design and produce high-quality restorations and oral appliances tailored specifically to your dental needs. This advanced technology allows our dentists and team to create precise, durable and aesthetically pleasing restorations that enhance your smile and oral health both immediately and in the long term. With 3D printing, you can expect restorations that fit comfortably and blend seamlessly with your natural teeth for a beautiful, natural-looking result.
Common Applications of 3D Printing
3D printing is transforming the way dental restorations and appliances are created. Some of the most common dental applications include:
- Dental crowns
- Dental bridges
- Night guards
- Clear aligners
- Denture bases
- Surgical guides
- Dental models and prototypes
Each of these appliances is designed with a high level of accuracy, ensuring a precise fit and optimal functionality. Whether you need a single crown or a full set of dentures, 3D printing provides customized solutions tailored to your unique dental anatomy.
The 3D Printing Process
When you need a restoration or appliance, our dentists will begin by taking a digital impression of your mouth using advanced intraoral scanning technology. This digital scan creates a detailed 3D model of your teeth and gums, which is then used to design your restoration with precision. Once the design is finalized, our in-office 3D printer fabricates the appliance using high-quality dental materials.
Efficiency & Convenience
One of the significant advantages of 3D printing in dentistry is the ability to complete your treatment in our office. This means shorter wait times and fewer visits, allowing us to provide you with a more convenient and efficient experience. Traditional methods often require outsourcing to a dental lab, which can prolong the process and increase costs. By utilizing 3D printing technology, we streamline the workflow and ensure that your restoration meets our highest standards before placement.
