PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS SprintRay Best-in-class toughness SprintRay has launched OnX Tough, a next-generation hybrid ceramic resin designed for 3D printing dental prosthetics. Leveraging SprintRay’s proprietary NanoFusion technology, this new resin delivers unparalleled durability and lifelike translucency for high-quality, same-day smiles. “SprintRay was founded on the promise of building carefully-curated 3D printing solutions to enable dental providers to deliver an exceptional patient experience,” said Amir Mansouri, PhD, CEO and cofounder of SprintRay. “This breakthrough OnX Tough material represents a paradigm shift for chairside dentistry, delivering customised, beautiful and functional dental prosthetics while the patient is in the chair.” The need for dental prosthetics is on the rise, with the global market projected to reach US$9.71bn by 2026. In the US alone, approximately 178 million adults are missing at least one tooth and 40 million are edentulous. Conventional methods to manufacture dental prosthetics involve sending digital or analogue impressions to a lab with turnaround times averaging three to four weeks for some patients. With the advent of digital dentistry and 3D printing, first generation 3D printing technologies have enabled in-office manufacturing of dental prosthetics, but with significant limitations. “When creating OnX Tough, we set out to design a next generation resin that addressed a key limitation of 3D printed prosthetics today — durability and toughness,” said Sumeet Jain, PhD, vicepresident, Materials. “To address these limitations, we developed NanoFusion technology, a new approach to dental chemistry. NanoFusion materials have a novel composition and form dense polymer chains to deliver dental prostheses with best-in-class fracture toughness, five times that of firstgeneration technology. Furthermore, the composition brings a perfect combination of translucency and opacity to mimic that of natural dentition.” DA 3M Oral Care Making restorative procedures more affordable for patients, more predictable for dentists Today’s dental patients are looking for lessinvasive options to improve their smile at a price they can afford. That’s why 3M has introduced the 3M Filtek Matrix — a new restorative solution that makes composite placement less stressful and more predictable for dentists, while making it more affordable for their patients. Dental composites can be a great choice to restore or improve the aesthetics of a patient’s smile. However, the traditional process can be long and complicated. The Filtek Matrix procedure begins with a digital restoration design. A patientspecific matrix is created that helps the clinician transfer the digital design to the patient’s teeth using 3M dental composites. Unlike more invasive ceramic procedures which often require the removal of tooth structure, the Filtek Matrix relies on additive composite techniques where little to no tooth reduction is required. In a clinical evaluation, dentists reported that using the matrix increased their confidence, delivered predictable and aesthetic results, and saved chair time. “This product brings together leading material science and digital innovation to enable clinicians to predictably and efficiently transform patient smiles,” said Andrew Milder, global portfolio director, 3M Oral Care. “It is exciting to see the amazing results that clinicians have delivered using the Filtek Matrix.” The Filtek Matrix is the latest innovation in 3M’s portfolio of restorative solutions. Clinicians can pair the Filtek Matrix with 3M Filtek Dental Restoratives to deliver excellent composite strength and wear resistance for patients. DA 54 DENTAL ASIA NOVEMBER / DECEMBER 2022
