SprintRay has officially announced the expansion of its digital dentistry portfolio, which the company is now set to debut at the 2025 Chicago Midwinter Meeting and Lab Day.
According to certain reports, the stated new offerings, across the Digital Press and Digital Print product lines, happen to include next-gen sports guard, as well as restorative materials for faster production speeds and multi-material printing.
Talk about SprintRay’s Digital Press line on a slightly deeper level, we begin from how it delivers the world’s ever digital restoration press. In essence, the given assortment is set to introduce resins for its Digital Press product line.
These new resins, on their part, are designed to leverage Digital Press Stereolithography, which allows fabrication with highly viscous materials previously considered unprintable, all enclosed in a capsule which offers a no-mess, no-training fabrication process.
More on that would reveal how SprintRay’s Digital Press banks upon proprietary NanoFusionâ„¢ technology to deliver superior fit and aesthetics for temporary restorations with exceptional fracture toughness. In case you weren’t aware, this particular material is actually FDA 510(k) cleared for 3D printing full and partial temporary crowns and bridges.
Another detail worth a mention here is rooted in SprintRay’s Crown high-translucency (Crown-HT). You see, the stated SprintRay Crown HT would be a first-of-its-kind Midas-exclusive material formulated with >60% ceramic filler to deliver lifelike light diffusion. The outcome can seamlessly replicate natural teeth, making it ideal for fabricating definitive crowns and minimally invasive restorations, such as inlays, onlays, and veneers.
Like many other components in play here, this material is also FDA-cleared.
Beyond that, we must mention how it can mirror the mechanical performance of surrounding dentition so to facilitate a lasting, functional restoration. Joining the company’s existing Midas portfolio made up of Ceramic Crown and OnX Tough 2, the resins in question have successfully reduced multi-surface restoration time from 90-120 minutes to just 30-40 minutes per patient visit, dramatically enhancing efficiency and the overall patient experience.
“The Midas Digital Restoration Press represents a transformative advancement in dental technology,” said Dr. Matt Nejad, a leading biomimetic and aesthetic dentist. “Its innovative Digital Press Stereolithography (DPS) allows for the use of highly viscous, ceramic-filled materials, enabling the creation of ceramic composite restorations with enhanced strength and esthetics. This aligns seamlessly with my commitment to mimicking the natural properties of teeth and employing minimally invasive techniques that preserve natural tooth structure. Midas has streamlined my workflow, reducing treatment times. This technology paves the path for future materials that will be far superior to anything else on the market.”
Turning our attention towards SprintRay’s Digital Print line, it leverages bespoke light delivery systems to offer outstanding accuracy, throughput, and versatility for dental clinics.
The stated technology also banks upon proprietary NanoFusionâ„¢ technology to deliver superior fit and aesthetics for temporary restorations with exceptional fracture toughness.
Understood be FDA 510(k) cleared for 3D printing full and partial temporary crowns and bridges, SprintRay’s Digital Print line also deploys SportsGuard, which is a specialized material for high-performing, custom athletic mouthguards. The material boasts impact absorption which outdoes every other conventional soft EVA materials and 250% elongation at break.
Thanks to these factors, the material is able to deliver top-notch performance, while simultaneously ensuring comfort and reliable protection for athletes in high-impact sports. The material also meets American Dental Association (ADA) specifications for impact absorption, rebound, tear strength, and Shore A hardness.
Among other things, we ought to mention that SprintRay is also bringing out several accessory kits that will basically allow Digital Print products to adapt to the needs of any office simply by swapping the build platform and resin tank.
“I couldn’t be more excited about these transformative products,” said Amir Mansouri, PhD, CEO and co-founder of SprintRay. “These innovations culminate years of hard work, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in digital dentistry. The cutting-edge technology in both the Digital Press and Digital Print portfolios will elevate the care experience for providers and patients alike. We’re thrilled to continue driving the future of dentistry.”
