HeyGears validates Lucitone Digital Print Denture system

Dentsply Sirona, a manufacturer of professional dental products and technologies, and HeyGears, a provider of 3D printing technology and solutions, have validated the Lucitone Digital Print Denture workflow and material system on HeyGears’ UltraCraft A2D and A2D 4K printers for digital denture manufacturing.

Dentsply Sirona and HeyGears are making the Lucitone Digital Print Denture System – including a comprehensive range of materials and validated workflows featuring BAM! smart polymer technology – more accessible. The newly validated workflow for HeyGears printers includes all Lucitone Digital Print materials for both premium and economy dentures: Lucitone Digital Print, Lucitone Digital Value, Lucitone Digital IPN, Lucitone Digital Fuse, and the Digital Cure Units.

With the extended life expectancy of the aging population and a decline in the number of skilled dental technicians, the demand for efficient, high-quality denture production is increasing. Thanks to the new validation, labs using HeyGears printers can quickly print single-arch dentures and manage other complex cases – offering greater choice and efficiency to clinicians and their patients.

The Lucitone Digital Print Denture (LDPD) System is renowned for its superior mechanical strength, tooth durability, and comprehensive system for full arch and partial denture production in 16 A-D* + 2 bleach shades.

HeyGears’ dental 3D printing solutions are designed for streamlined and efficient production workflows through innovative pre-processing and print management software combined with professional 3D printing hardware to provide reliable and accurate results. The UltraCraft A2D 3D printer offers a valuable first step for labs looking to enhance their digital mass production capabilities with high accuracy and ease of use. The UltraCraft A2D 4K 3D printer provides ultra-high precision and a larger build volume, and features compatibility with the HiVE (High-Volume Enabler) automated part removal module for continuous mass production.

“Building on our years of experience and partnership with the dental community, this commitment to expanding access to the LDPD System is a natural next step,” said Bruce Peatey, Group Vice President Americas at Dentsply Sirona. “We’ve spoken with many labs and heard about the challenges they face with traditional processes and materials. Our goal is to provide all labs access to the LDPD System, enabling them to quickly produce the most comfortable, technologically sophisticated dentures available today.”

“Our collaboration with Dentsply Sirona underscores our dedication to advancing dental technology and providing labs with the tools they need to succeed,” said Peiyan Gui, CEO and Co-founder of HeyGears. “By validating our UltraCraft A2D and A2D 4K 3D printers for the Lucitone Digital Print Denture System, we’re affirming our belief in the value of integrated solutions while helping to streamline the denture production process and ensure the highest quality outcomes for patients.”
