For years now, Carbon has been offering a revolutionary alternative to 3D printing, using light and oxygen to rapidly produce high-quality, end-use products from a pool of resin. Its robust and reliable family of 3D printers based on proprietary Digital Light Synthesis™ technology, coupled with its innovative software and broad portfolio of materials, deliver a complete and comprehensive digital manufacturing solution for all dental production needs.

Carbon solutions are known to significantly improve efficiency and accuracy, reduce time from design to manufacture, and provide important features such as part traceability and serialization through next-gen software design tools. With Carbon, everything is digitally traceable, down to a unique ID that can automatically be engraved or embossed on any part. This capability is particularly valuable for highly regulated industries like dental, where the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) will increasingly require part-specific data to ensure product performance and patient safety.

The Dentsply Sirona denture materials for Carbon digital manufacturing solutions are slated to be available in the US later in 2019.
