Flexcera Smile Ultra+ delivers exceptional strength, life-like
aesthetics, and long-term performance that is revolutionizing
digital dentistry with permanent 3D-printed restorations, including
dentures, crowns, bridges, veneers, and more. This breakthrough
material represents more than three years of research and
development and leverages proprietary long-chain chemistry to
deliver exceptional performance in dental prosthetics. The
highly-versatile material, one of several Flexcera brand resins
available today, can be used to quickly produce customized
permanent or temporary solutions.
“Demand for our superior Flexcera family of resins has been
overwhelming in the marketplace,” said Ric Fulop, Founder and CEO
of Desktop Metal. “This is the first time we’re making our
proprietary resin available to another 3D hardware provider. We’re
delighted to work with Carbon, which is widely respected in the
dental lab community.”
“Our customers continue to lead the charge in converting the
industry from analog to digital dentures. Collectively, they have
produced hundreds of thousands of dentures on our platform, but
this represents only a small percentage of all dentures made, as we
are still in the early innings of 3D printed dentures,” said Phil
DeSimone, Office of the CEO, Carbon. “We remain dedicated to
helping labs meet the growing needs of the industry and are
thrilled to offer Flexera Smile Ultra+ to our customers. The
materials are highly regarded in the market and are a natural fit
within our portfolio.”
Lou Azzara, President of Desktop Health, added, “We are excited
to provide the dental community access to the outstanding aesthetic
and strength benefits of Flexcera through our partners at
Carbon.”
Flexcera™ Smile Ultra+ is for permanent, printable smiles. It's
a next-generation hybrid nanoceramic resin FDA 510(k) Class II
cleared for a wide range of permanent and temporary dental
restorations including teeth for dentures, crowns, inlays, onlays,
bridges, veneers, and full, monolithic and partial dentures.
Flexcera Smile Ultra+ is currently available in the US, and will
soon be available in the EU.
Later this year, Carbon and Desktop Health also plan to release
Flexcera Base™, adding an additional denture material with
exceptional fracture resistance to Carbon's material portfolio.
