Don’t mill it, print! For faster temporaries and provisionals.
When it comes to temporaries and provisionals, 3D printing saves a significant amount of time and costs when compared to milling. But not only that: it frees up dental mills for higher value jobs that are not possible on a 3D printer (e.g. zirconia). dima Print C&B temp is a Class IIa material that can be used to produce short-term Try-ins or longerterm temporaries (up to 1 year). Particularly for in-house technicians, 3D printing can deliver a perfectly fitting and aesthetically pleasing temporary in less than 1 hour after a patient’s teeth are prepped for a new crown or bridge.
Benefits
Achieve higher productivity through 3D printed temporaries and provisionals instead of milling
- Time saving: e.g. only 30 minutes to print 30 crowns vs. 450 minutes needed for milling
- Cost saving: costs for a printed crown approx. €0.33 vs. €1.00 for milling
Achieve higher profitability and increase ROI for your milling machine
- Free up milling machine capacity: save it for the fabrication of high-value products (e.g. zirconia)
- In-house labs have less time pressure: patients get printed temporaries in just under 1 hour, which means more time to prepare the permanent crown or bridge
Good to know
Indications
dima Print C&B temp is a Class IIa material that can be used to produce short-term Try-ins or longerterm temporaries (up to 1 year). The material covers exposed dentine, minimizing or completely preventing sensitivity. Furthermore, temporaries made with dima Print C&B temp serve as an excellent basis for assessing the fit, shade, shape, position of contacts and more – all before the final restoration is made. For dental technicians already using the cara Print System, dima Print C&B temp integrates perfectly into existing workflows.

“So far, it’s the best material I’ve tested on the market. The outcome, the colour, helps us to implement the digital workflow. By 3D-printing provisionals, I can now cater to the needs of my customers – dentists and patients – much more quickly, because the system can deliver highly aesthetic provisionals in mere minutes.”
