Carbon Introduces Innovative Dual-Cure FP3D Resin for Dentists
Carbon Unveils Groundbreaking FP3D Resin at LMT Lab Day Chicago
Carbon, a leader in the 3D printing industry, has excitedly introduced its new FP3D resin, designed specifically for flexible, removable partial dentures (FRPD). Announced at LMT Lab Day Chicago 2025, this innovative material brings forward the company's proven dual-cure technology to the dental field, revolutionizing dental appliance performance and reliability.
What Makes FP3D Different?
The FP3D resin is not just another dental material; it represents a significant leap in the world of 3D printing for dental applications. It harnesses Carbon's proprietary dual-cure chemistry, known for enhancing durability, flexibility, and strength in a reliable manner. Unlike traditional single-cure resins, FP3D is designed to mimic various properties found in conventional polymer-based dental materials, setting a new benchmark for removable partial dentures.
Engineering a New Standard
This resin is anticipated to launch in the late stages of 2025, pending clearance from regulatory authorities. The dual-cure technology within FP3D allows a secondary heat-activated reaction that empowers the resin to gain impressive strength and durability without affecting the intricacies of the dental printing process. This ensures that dental technicians can achieve precision while creating durable appliances.
The Importance of Dual-Cure Technology
In dentistry, the performance of materials is crucial. Most traditional resins lack the toughness needed for durable dental applications. Carbon’s dual-cure chemistry is a game-changer, alleviating these hesitations among dental professionals. With FP3D, the combination of properties through this advanced resin creation leads to more resilient and dependable dental appliances for both practitioners and patients.
How Dual-Cure Chemistry Benefits Various Industries
Carbon's dual-cure technology is not confined to dental applications; it has made significant inroads in other industries as well:
- Sports Equipment: In collaboration with Riddell, Carbon pioneered the first-ever 3D-printed football helmet liner, enhancing athlete protection.
- Footwear: Partnerships with specialized brands have resulted in high-performance midsoles, offering superior energy return and increased durability.
- Cycling: Customized bike saddles developed with major cycling firms leverage dual-cure technology to boost comfort and efficiency for cyclists.
Enhancing Dental Lab Efficiency with Automation
Carbon continues to expand its Automatic Operation Suite, providing new technologies aimed at streamlining workflows in dental labs. Following the successful launch of the AO Suite in 2024, these innovations are designed to enhance productivity and consistency in production.
New Tools for Dental Labs
- Automatic Print Preparation Software: This user-friendly software automates essential printing steps, helping labs reduce manual work and improve operational capabilities.
- AO Polishing Cassette Expansion: Recently expanded to include more printer models, this cassette uses advanced polishing techniques during printing, which results in ready-to-use parts with enhanced design features.
Carbon's Commitment to Digital Dentistry
These advancements highlight Carbon's dedication to pioneering digital dentistry. By integrating dual-cure technology alongside increased automation, Carbon remains at the forefront of innovation, steadfast in its mission to revolutionize the dental industry.
Visitors at LMT Lab Day Chicago 2025 are encouraged to stop by Carbon's booth to witness these cutting-edge innovations and see how they are reshaping procedures in dental labs across the board.
