Printing dental restorations now possible with Planmeca Creo® C5
With the introduction of BEGO printing materials for the Planmeca Creo® C5 dental 3D printer, dental professionals can now produce all components they need for their treatment workflows precisely and efficiently in house – and offer their patients a cost-effective option for same-day dental restorations.
Planmeca is thrilled to announce a strategic cooperation with BEGO, a renowned pioneer of CAD/CAM technology with more than 20 years of experience in the field of 3D printing. Leveraging the combined expertise of both companies, the cutting-edge materials by BEGO for printing dental restorations have now been successfully validated for the Planmeca Creo® C5 dental 3D printer.
With the validation of VarseoSmile Crown plus, VarseoSmile Temp and VarseoSmile Teeth, Planmeca Creo C5 users can now offer their patients a cost-effective choice for same-day dental restorations, which fulfil the highest quality standards. In addition to elevating patient care, these materials help dental professionals streamline their prosthetic workflows and manufacturing process.
Planmeca Creo C5 users will benefit especially from VarseoSmile Crown plus, the world’s first 3D printing material for permanent restorations. The ceramic-filled and medically approved 3D printing resin allows manufacturing high-quality single crowns, partial crowns, crowns on abutments, inlays, onlays, tabletops, and veneers, whose durability has been proven in extensive scientific studies.
As for printing temporary restorations, VarseoSmile Temp offers a medically approved resin for manufacturing temporary crowns, bridges, inlays, onlays, and veneers. With VarseoSmile Teeth, Planmeca Creo C5 users can create highly aesthetic teeth for full and partial dentures. Both of these ceramic-filled materials ensure high resistance to abrasion.
“I am extremely pleased with our collaboration with BEGO, which now makes same-day restorations available to an even broader range of patients worldwide. Planmeca Creo C5 has been specifically designed to meet the needs of modern dental practices and laboratories, providing a powerful tool for printing a wide range of high-quality dental applications precisely and efficiently. With the validation of BEGO’s leading 3D printing materials for dental restorations, our printer enables dental professionals to produce all necessary components for their treatment workflows and achieve outstanding results every time,” says Pontus Degerlund, CAD/CAM Director at Planmeca.
“Our leading 3D printing materials adhere to the highest quality standards, enhancing the quality of patient care and improving the efficiency of manufacturing workflows. We are delighted that these materials are now available to the users of Planmeca Creo C5 in a validated workflow,” says Marius Kempf, Team Leader of the 3D printing category management at BEGO. “I am particularly pleased that this also includes VarseoSmile Crown plus, which stands out due to its clinical longevity, excellent translucency and overall aesthetics as well as the many scientific publications that prove its outstanding performance. We are eagerly looking forward to a future collaboration with the companies and distributors of Planmeca Group.”
