In-office 3D printing allows our dentists to create custom dental appliances, models, and certain restorations right here in our practice, reducing wait times and improving accuracy. Instead of sending impressions to an outside lab and waiting weeks, we can often produce what you need in hours or days.
Faster Treatment, Fewer Appointments
Traditional dental appliances require sending impressions to a lab, waiting for the item to be fabricated, and scheduling a separate appointment for delivery. With in-office 3D printing, we can design and print many appliances the same day or within a few days, meaning you can start treatment sooner.
This technology works for:
- Night guards and bite splints
- Sleep apnea appliances
- Surgical guides for implant placement
- Orthodontic aligners and retainers
- Temporary crowns and bridges
Precision and Customization
Digital scanning combined with 3D printing eliminates many of the variables that can affect fit with traditional methods. The precision of digital technology means your appliance fits more accurately from the start, reducing the need for adjustments and ensuring better comfort.
More Control Over Your Care
When your dentist in Charlotte, NC, produces appliances in-house, it means we have greater control over quality and can easily make adjustments and modifications based on your feedback.
