In dental care, the ideal restorative material would be identical to natural tooth structure, in strength adherence and appearance. The properties of an ideal filling material can be divided into four categories: physical properties, biocompatibility, aesthetics and application. Biocompatibility refers to how well the material coexists with the biological equilibrium of the tooth and body systems. Since fillings are in close contact with mucosa, tooth and pulp, biocompatibility is very important. Common problems with some of the current dental materials include chemical leakage from the material, pulpal irritation and less commonly allergy. MED610™ bio-compatible 3D printing material, which offers high dimensional stability and excellent transparency 3D printing for rapid prototyping and additive manufacturing, has been launched by Objet Ltd. PMMA simulation process along with several medical and dental applications can benefit from this technology. The material integrates bio-compatibility with clear transparency and high dimensional stability. These enhanced features deliver benefits to the whole dental and medical workflow starting from surgical planning to the development of the procedure itself. It is a rigid material featuring great dimensional stability and colorless transparency. It is ideal for: • Medical and Dental applications • 3D printing of dental and orthopedic surgical guides • Checking the customized fit of surgical guides and delivery trays in the mouth • Monitoring oral soft tissue during surgical guide procedures MED610™ is used for polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) simulation and also for the production of customized, precise surgical guides. The enhanced material transparency provides better examination of soft tissues during medical and dental procedures. The printing material is suitable for extended mucosal-membrane contact of about 24 hours and skin contact of more than 30 days. It has five medical approvals according to the harmonized standard ISO 10993-1: Cytotoxicity, Genotoxicity, Delayed Type Hypersensitivity, Irritation and USP Plastic Class VI. It is also manufactured under the ISO 13485:2003 certification, which specifies that each and every batch of the material undergoes bio-compatibility conformity testing, including GC-FID before it is packaged. This ensures the highest bio-compatible standards for medical and dental application requirements. The accuracy and fine detail of Objet 3D-printed surgical guides guarantee surgeons a consistently high level of precision that is unmatched by manual processes.

This is the second material the company has created specifically for dental and medical applications. It joins the company's original Objet VeroDent material, currently used extensively by dental labs worldwide in the digital dental process. The Bio-Compatible material can be used on all Objet Connex and Eden 3D printers and is available for purchase immediately. Existing customers can use this material following a software upgrade. 3D Systems Corp has developed a new VisiJet® Clear print material that meets the rigorous requirements of USP Class VI for plastics. This material is designed for advanced medical and dental applications and is available only with the new ProJet™ 6000 professional 3D printer, further expanding the company's extensive healthcare solutions offerings. VisiJet® Clear is a specially engineered plastic material designed for optimal transparency, performance, accuracy and stability during extended exposure to high humidity and wet conditions. It prints extremely fine feature detailed, smooth surface finish, clear and colorless parts that can be used in a wide variety of medical and dental applications from surgical drill guides, dental models and medical appliances to surgical planning models and other healthcare applications where USP Class VI compliance is required.
