Solventum and SprintRay enter dental 3D printing partnership
Aiming to meet the needs of dentists with chairside 3D printed crowns, inlays, onlays, and more
Solventum, a dental composites and restorative dentistry company, has entered a partnership with SprintRay, a leading provider of chairside 3D dental printing, to meet the needs of dentists with in-office chairside 3D printed crowns, inlays, onlays, and more. This research and development and commercialization agreement is focused on developing and bringing to market high-quality, durable, and permanent same-day restorations – with the quality patients and dentists expect from the current multi-visit laboratory fabricated procedures.
Solventum Dental Solutions connects materials with data science to help dentists solve their toughest challenges with products such as Filtek Easy Match Universal Restorative, Filtek Matrix, Scotchbond Universal, and RelyX Universal Cement. SprintRay offers innovative chairside end-to-end 3D printing ecosystems, which create a platform for a wide range of restorative dental applications.
The partnership aims to bring to market the first permanent chairside, 3D printed crown. Together, Solventum and SprintRay anticipate improvement in patient experience and outcomes through fewer office visits.
“Imagine a world where your dentist can create a crown that can last decades in a matter of minutes,” said Karim Mansour, President of Dental Solutions at Solventum. “We believe this partnership will revolutionize the way dentists and orthodontists care for patients with in-office production, offering a simplified procedure that we anticipate will improve outcomes and experiences, reduce chair time, and lower treatment costs. This collaboration allows us to integrate the latest technological advancements into our proven restorative solutions, ensuring we remain at the forefront of dental innovation to deliver unparalleled care to our patients.”
Offering cutting-edge 3D printing technology directly to dentists and orthodontists will streamline care for patients and providers, allowing for the delivery of same-visit dentistry.
“Together, we can make a significant impact in restorative dentistry by building exceptional products for same-visit treatment,” said Amir Mansouri, CEO of SprintRay. “Our partnership with Solventum is a key collaboration and commitment to making a difference in people’s oral health as well as enabling high-quality and cost-effective dental restorations across the globe.”
