Frequently asked questions

What is 3D printing in dentistry?

It's the layer-by-layer fabrication of dental pieces from a digital design, using special resins made for use in the mouth. The design is created from your intraoral scan, and the printer accurately reproduces crowns, models, guides, or temporaries. It makes treatment faster and more precise.

What can a dental clinic 3D print?

Crowns, temporaries, study models, splints, procedure guides, and smile design prototypes. Each piece is tailored to your mouth because it's based on your own scan. At Natural Smile, one of the ways we use 3D printing is to make 3D-printed crowns.

Are 3D printing materials safe for the mouth?

Yes, when resins certified for dental use are used and processed correctly, including the washing and final curing the manufacturer specifies. These materials are designed to be in contact with teeth and gums. At the clinic we use dental-grade materials specific to each type of piece.

How does my scan become a printed restoration?

First, the iTero scanner creates a 3D model of your mouth. The restoration is designed on that model on the computer, adjusting shape, contacts, and bite. The file is sent to the printer, which builds it layer by layer, and then it's finished, tried in, and adjusted before placement.
