Multi-material additive manufacturing

Multi-material additive manufacturing

Our patent-pending multi-material additive manufacturing solution enables simultaneous processing of two (or more) different alloys. A robot deposits additional materials into the powder bed of our customized laser powder bed fusion machine.

Process

We enable a seamless journey for the dental technician, dentist, and patient—from jaw scan to denture production, veneering, and final insertion, ensuring a perfect fit and a confident smile.

Step 1

Step 1

Preparation & 3D data of the jaw

Preparation & 3D data of the jaw

The dentist takes a 3D scan or dental impression of the patient's jaw and prepares the remaining tooth stumps or implants.

CAD design

CAD design

The dental technician designs in CAD according to FIDENTIS guidelines. First the primary parts are designed and produced, eventually tested in the patient, and then the secondary part is designed.
