Choosing the best dental resin for 3D printing in dentistry involves considering several factors to ensure the material meets clinical requirements and regulations. Here’s a streamlined guide:

Biocompatibility: Ensure the resin is biocompatible. It must be safe for intraoral use and should not cause any adverse response in patients.

Mechanical Properties: Depending on the dental application (like surgical guides, dental models, crowns, or orthodontic appliances), the resin should have appropriate strength, durability, and wear resistance.

Accuracy and Detail: High resolution in resin ensures that the printed dental models or devices accurately reproduce the fine details necessary in dental applications.

Color Stability and Esthetics: For prosthetics, look for resins that offer colors matching natural tooth shades and resistance to staining.

Certification and Compliance: The resin must comply with local regulatory requirements such as FDA approval in the USA or CE marking in Europe.

Print Speed and Ease of Use: Select a resin that provides an optimal balance between print speed and ease of post-processing.

Compatibility with Printers: Check if the resin is compatible with your specific 3D printer type (SLA, DLP, or LCD).

Vendor Support and Reputation: Choose resins from suppliers with trustful reputations in the industry who provide consistent quality and customer support.

Patient-Specific Needs: Consider specific patient needs such as allergies or sensitivities.

Cost: Factor in the price, keeping in mind that lower costs should not compromise product quality and patient safety.

Selecting the right dental resin requires a careful combination of these factors tailored to the types of dental applications and devices you plan to produce.

The following are the most commonly used resins in 3D dental printing：

Ortho Model Resin

Ortho Model Resin is a biocompatible, orthodontic dental resin known for its print accuracy, heat resistance, hardness, and smooth finish. It offers necessary flexibility for dental workflows and resists abrasion, ensuring consistent model precision even after repeated use.

Temporary Restoration Resin

Temporary Resin is a bio-compatible, tooth-colored resin for 3D printing temporary dental restorations. Suitable for crowns, bridges (up to seven units), inlays, onlays, and veneers in five shades. It offers high pressure impact, wear, and corrosion resistance, ensuring excellent marginal adaptation and dimensional stability.

Surgical Guide Resin

Surgical Guide Resin is a biocompatible, transparent Class I material ideal for creating precise surgical guides, orthodontic guides, and functional retainers. It ensures exceptional accuracy and performance for high-precision, implant-guided procedures.

Dental Casting Resin

PioCreat’s Biocompatible castable resin is perfect for dental casting, ensuring minimal ash/residue, precise details, and low shrinkage. Ideal for 3D printing intricate models for metal dental crowns, bridges, and brackets.

Denture base resin

Piocreat Denture Resins, approved Class II biocompatible materials for 3D-printed dentures, blend flexibility and stability. They offer durability, visual appeal, and patient comfort. Using Denture Base Resin creates wear-resistant, biocompatible bases, lowering costs versus conventional methods. These durable dentures last 1 to 3 years, ensuring long-term patient satisfaction.
