Do you need models for a wide range of indications for your dental practice? Formlabs Dental’s 3D printing ecosystem enables you to accurately and reliably produce parts for a wide range of applications.
3D printing for dental practices
Watch videoAn easy and coherent workflow
The Formlabs Dental Ecosystem offers a simple and clean workflow that can be implemented in any dental practice. It includes user-friendly preparation software, additional monitoring tools and automated post-processing.
1. 3D scanning
You receive the patient anatomy digitally from dentists via a 3D scanner or digitize impressions with a laboratory scanner.
2. digital planning
Process the scan data into a printable model, a dental application or a restoration design using the PreForm print preparation software or in your dental software.
- Formlabs 3D printers can be used with all CAD dental software that supports the export of STL data.
- Integration with 3Shape, ExoCAD and more
3. 3D printing
To set up printing, import the CAD files into the PreForm print preparation software and send them to a Formlabs printer.
- Easily exchange the materials and resin tanks for other applications.
- Start print jobs remotely while on the move.
4. post-processing
After printing, wash, dry and harden the printed parts. These parts can be used intraorally or for the fabrication of various indications.
- Save work, time and money with automatic post-processing
Consistently precise parts that meet the requirements of dental medicine
Innovative low-force stereolithography
The Formlabs SLA 3D printers feature advanced low-force stereolithography technology. This minimizes the forces generated when the printed parts are separated from the resin tank between individual layers. In this way, it enables the production of parts with incredible surface quality and clarity.
Precision
Thanks to its low-force stereolithography technology, the Formlabs Form 3B can be used for various indications, including the production of high-precision removable die models, drilling templates or splints. The Form 3B offers the same precision as large-format 3D printers for dental technology, which cost CHF 35,000 or more.

Smooth crown margins, tight die and denture fits and a smooth surface finish help you to achieve high-quality end products.
Lower costs with higher production volumes
With the Formlabs Form 3B, you can print two to three times more parts in a single print run compared to printers with a small build platform. As a result, you spend less time operating your printer and more time on value-added tasks.

Calculate your time and cost savings
Use Formlabs’ interactive ROI tool to calculate your time and cost savings when 3D printing with a Formlabs dental 3D printer.
Calculate your ROIA system that adapts to your needs
As order volumes grow, you can seamlessly add more 3D printers and post-processing units to your system. Expand with the Formlabs Form 3B to respond flexibly to demand or with the Formlabs Form 3BL to process large batches. However, you don’t have to dig too deep into your wallet and can easily integrate the new devices into your existing system.
Free user-friendly software
With just a few clicks, you can prepare your data for 3D printing in the free Preform software. You can also use Formlabs software tools to access your printers from any location.
Preform software included
With Formlabs, the software is included: consequently, there are no licenses or annual fees. You can install the software on any number of systems and work from anywhere.
