Using Premium Teeth Resin
Using Premium Teeth Resin
Premium Teeth Resin is a nano-ceramic filled Class II material with enhanced aesthetics, mechanical properties, and validated longevity to guarantee optimal clinical performance. 3D print denture teeth and temporary full-arch implant-supported restorations (All-on-X appliances) without compromising on intraoral mechanics, life-like aesthetics, and simplified post-processing and finishing steps.
Note:
To learn more about the performance or specific material properties of Premium Teeth Resin, refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and Technical Data Sheet (TDS). Always consult the SDS as the primary source of information to understand safety and handling of Formlabs materials.
Premium Teeth Resin prints at 50 microns and 100 microns.
Required resources:
- Compatible Formlabs SLA printer with up-to-date firmware
- PreForm software (most recent version)
- Build platform or Build Platform 2 (Premium Teeth Resin is not compatible with the Stainless Steel Build Platform)
- Resin tank
- Premium Teeth Resin
- Form Wash or Finish Kit
- Form Cure or Fast Cure
Printing with Premium Teeth Resin
Notice:
To avoid damage to equipment, check the resin tank compatibility table in Choosing the right material to confirm you are using a resin tank that is compatible with this material.
Install or update PreForm, then set up the next print job.
To prepare a model for printing in PreForm, follow the instructions in the manufacturing guide. When printing digital dentures, follow the steps in our application guide 3D Printing Full Dentures with Formlabs 3D Printers [EN] [DE] [ES] [FR] [IT].
To prepare a model for printing in PreForm:
- Open a model.
- Select the resin, resin version, and the desired layer thickness.
- Orient the model with the intaglio surface facing away from the build platform at a 0–30° angle.
- Generate supports.
- Send the print job to the printer.
Note:
Premium Teeth Resin may be bonded to 3D printed denture bases after curing using bonding systems designed for PMMA-based denture materials such as Ivoclar Ivotion Bond Kit. Refer to the instructions provided by the bonding system manufacturer.
Finishing
The Form Wash agitates the solvent bath and removes parts from the bath after a set time. Wash parts according to the support article Form Wash time settings. Pay particular attention to information that affects mechanical properties or biocompatibility requirements.
If the model is hollow or has internal channels, ensure liquid resin is flushed out thoroughly from these features. Allow parts to fully dry before post-curing.
Post-curing requirements
Premium Teeth Resin requires post-curing to reach its optimal mechanical properties.
Refer to the support article Form Cure time and temperature settings for post-curing recommendations. If using Fast Cure, refer to the support article Fast Cure time settings
Notice:
Follow post-curing recommendations from Formlabs for the clearest and best possible results. Improper post-curing can lead to suboptimal mechanical and biocompatibility properties.
