SprintRay Debuts Next-Gen Solutions at 2025 Dental Events

Key Takeaways: SprintRay introduces advanced materials and hardware for digital dentistry, including next-gen sports guards, restorative resins, and multi-material printing kits. Debuting at the 2025 Chicago Midwinter Meeting, these innovations aim to enhance efficiency, precision, and patient care.


SprintRay Unveils Expanded Digital Dentistry Solutions

SprintRay has announced significant expansions to its digital dentistry portfolio, set to debut at two major industry events in 2025: the Chicago Midwinter Meeting and Lab Day Chicago. The updates span both the Digital Press and Digital Print product lines, introducing next-generation materials and innovative hardware accessories designed to improve production speeds, versatility, and clinical outcomes.

Advancements in the Digital Press Line

Building on the success of the 2024 launch of the Midas, the world’s first digital restoration press, SprintRay is expanding its material offerings to address a broader range of clinical needs. These new materials leverage Digital Press Stereolithography (DPS), a technology that enables the use of highly viscous, ceramic-filled resins previously considered unprintable. Encased in capsules, these materials streamline workflows by eliminating mess and reducing training requirements.

New Materials for Enhanced Restorations

  • Digital Temp: A ceramic-filled resin utilizing proprietary NanoFusion technology, this material delivers superior fit and aesthetics for temporary crowns and bridges. It is FDA 510(k) cleared for 3D printing full and partial restorations, offering exceptional fracture toughness.
  • Crown HT (High-Translucency): Exclusive to Midas, this material contains over 60% ceramic filler, replicating natural tooth light diffusion. Ideal for definitive crowns and minimally invasive restorations like inlays, onlays, and veneers, Crown HT mirrors the mechanical performance of natural teeth.

Dr. Matt Nejad, a leading biomimetic and aesthetic dentist, praised the innovation: “The Midas Digital Restoration Press represents a transformative advancement in dental technology. Its innovative DPS allows for the use of highly viscous, ceramic-filled materials, enabling the creation of ceramic composite restorations with enhanced strength and esthetics.” He added, “In our practice, it has reduced multi-surface restoration time from 90–120 minutes to just 30–40 minutes per patient visit, dramatically enhancing efficiency and the overall patient experience.”

These materials complement SprintRay’s existing portfolio, which includes Ceramic Crown and OnX Tough 2, providing practitioners with comprehensive solutions for various restorative needs.

Innovations in the Digital Print Line

The Digital Print product line, known for its bespoke light delivery systems, continues to evolve with new materials and hardware accessories. Introduced in 2024, the Pro 2 printer exemplifies the next generation of 3D printing technology, offering unmatched accuracy, throughput, and versatility for chairside applications.

Next-Generation Materials

  • SportsGuard: Designed for custom athletic mouthguards, this material offers impact absorption comparable to conventional soft EVA materials but with 250% elongation at break. Engineered to meet or exceed ADA specifications, SportsGuard ensures durability, comfort, and safety for athletes in high-impact sports.
  • Digital Temp: Also available for the Digital Print line, this ceramic-filled resin provides superior aesthetics and fracture toughness for temporary restorations.

These materials join SprintRay’s extensive library of biocompatible resins, which cater to applications ranging from dentures and night guards to surgical guides and full-arch hybrids.

Hardware Accessory Kits for Enhanced Efficiency

SprintRay has introduced two new accessory kits for the Pro 2 printer, further optimizing speed and versatility:

  • Arch Kit: Featuring a compact resin tank and build platform, this kit is ideal for single-patient applications, delivering rapid production for small-batch jobs like hybrid dentures.
  • Duo Kit: A patent-pending invention that splits the build platform and resin tank into two discrete areas, allowing simultaneous printing of different resins. This innovation accelerates the production of appliances like dentures, where both teeth and bases are printed.

Amir Mansouri, PhD, CEO and co-founder of SprintRay, expressed enthusiasm about the advancements: “I couldn’t be more excited about these transformative products. These innovations culminate years of hard work, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in digital dentistry. The cutting-edge technology in both the Digital Press and Digital Print portfolios will elevate the care experience for providers and patients alike.”

A Glimpse into the Future of Dentistry

SprintRay’s expanded portfolio underscores its commitment to advancing digital dentistry through user-friendly, efficient, and precise solutions. By addressing diverse clinical needs—from temporary restorations to custom sports guards—the company aims to empower dental professionals to deliver personalized care while optimizing chairside workflows.

Visitors to the 2025 Chicago Midwinter Meeting (Booth #1614) and Lab Day Chicago (Booth G-27) will have the opportunity to explore these innovations firsthand. For more information, visit www.sprintray.com.

As Dr. Nejad noted, “This technology paves the path for future materials that will be far superior to anything else on the market and ideal for restoring teeth with a biomimetic approach.” With these latest developments, SprintRay continues to shape the future of dental care.
