Application Overview
About Medical & Dental Application
Medical and dental applications include custom prosthetics, surgical planning models, anatomical models, and functional appliances. These support personalized treatment plans, improve patient communication, and contribute to higher surgical success rates through enhanced precision and planning.
Why 3D Printing Is Beneficial
Traditional methods are often expensive, slow, and inflexible for patient-specific needs. 3D printing offers faster turnaround, affordable customization, high anatomical accuracy, and regulatory-grade biocompatible materials for clinical use.

Technology Types
We provide a full suite of polymer printing technologies, ensuring the right fit for your innovation needs and production goals.
FDM
Fused Deposition Modeling uses thermoplastic filament, extruded layer by layer inside a self-calibrated heated chamber. It is ideal for producing strong, durable, heat-resistant and dimensionally stable parts using standard or high-performance grade materials.
PolyJet
One of the most powerful abilities is to simultaneously print multi-material resin in a single build. It jets layers of UV-curable engineered resins to create detailed and smooth parts for realistic prototypes, concept modeling, and functional tooling.
P3 DLP
Programmable PhotoPolymerization is a next-generation Digital Light Processing technology that uses light-curable resin for high-resolution printing. It supports intricate features, excellent surface quality, and a wide range of high-performance materials for production-ready applications.
SLA
Laser Stereolithography is a unique technology that polymerizes each layer of a ceramic-loaded photosensitive resin to form the green part. Afterward, the part undergoes debinding and sintering to remove resin, densify the ceramic, and achieve its final material properties.
