Dental Model Resin - low shrinkage, MMA-free resin with a smooth, hard surface that provides high dimensional accuracy. Ideal for dental models, gingival models, and restorative dental models in digital dentistry.

Digital Dentistry Demands Micrometer-Level Precision

In the era of digital dentistry, whether it's creating dental models for treatment planning, removable dies, or models for clear aligners, 3D printing has largely replaced traditional plaster casting. This is due to its superior accuracy, reproducibility, and significant time savings. However, the crucial factor for practical application is the "resin" used for printing. It must have low shrinkage, high dimensional accuracy, and a sufficiently smooth surface to capture intricate details like tooth grooves or gum margins.

Introducing Dental Model Resin

Dental Model Resin is specifically designed for the production of high-precision restorative dental models. With its low shrinkage and low odor properties, it meets the standards of accuracy and dimensional stability required in restorative dentistry. It is suitable for creating dental models, models for clear aligners, gums, teeth, as well as removable crown and bridge models.

The surface of the printed parts is smooth and scratch-resistant, ensuring consistent quality in every print. This makes it a reliable partner in the workflow of dental clinics or laboratories.

Note: This resin is designed for model creation only and is not suitable for direct intraoral use.

Key Features for Dental Applications

• Low shrinkage — Maintains the proportions and size of the model as closely as possible to the original scan data.
• MMA-free — Reduces pungent odors during printing and in the clinic area.
• High surface quality — Smooth finish reduces post-processing and polishing steps.
• High surface hardness — Resists abrasion from repeated handling and use on the model.
• Excellent dimensional accuracy — Sharp details for intricate features like tooth grooves or gum margins.

Technical Specifications

Dental Model Resin has been laboratory-tested with the following properties (values may vary depending on part geometry, print orientation, printer settings, and ambient temperature):

• Net Weight: 1 kg (35.27 oz)
• Tensile Strength: 46 MPa
• Flexural Strength: 78 MPa
• Flexural Modulus: 1,830 MPa
• Density: 1.19 g/cm³ at 23°C
• Viscosity: 300–600 mPa.s at 25°C
• Shore D Hardness: 85D

With this level of strength and surface hardness, printed models can withstand repeated handling, examination, and treatment planning without easily deforming.

Compatible with Various Printers

Dental Model Resin is easy to use and compatible with LCD, SLA, and DLP 3D printers using UV light in the 385–405 nm wavelength range. This allows most dental labs to use it with their existing equipment without additional investment.

Suitable Applications

• Diagnostic models
• Presentation models
• Models with dies
• Wax-up models
• Demonstration and teaching aids in dentistry

Precautions for Use

As with all 3D printing resins, always shake and stir the resin thoroughly before printing. Close the container tightly when not in use. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place away from heat sources or open flames. Wear nitrile gloves and safety glasses when handling or using the resin. If resin comes into contact with skin, eyes, or mouth, rinse immediately with plenty of clean water, and seek medical attention if irritation persists. Crucially, never dispose of uncured resin directly into the environment. Dispose of it according to local environmental regulations.

Conclusion

Dental Model Resin is an ideal choice for dental labs and clinics seeking high precision in creating dental models, gum models, and various restorative dental models. With its low shrinkage, MMA-free formulation (reducing pungent odors), scratch-resistant smooth surface, and reliable dimensional accuracy, it ensures that every step of the digital dentistry workflow, from diagnosis to treatment planning, is smoother and more accurate.
