CHATTANOOGA, Tenn.—Motion View Software has announced its SLA-based iPrint 3D printers for use by orthodontists in their own offices and on their own schedules.

Motion View’s in-office iPrint 3D printer eliminates delays and reduces costs compared to contracting out to a lab for 3D printing services.  Instead, appliances for indirect bonding and other purposes are made onsite and quickly available to use. Results are extremely accurate, in high resolution, and fast.

The iPrint 3D software accepts .STL files for printing models at user-selectable layer thicknesses of 25, 50, or 100 microns. The iPrint 3D printer is SLA-based, using a laser to cure the printing material in a build area of 7 x 7 x 8 inches.  The iPrint 3D printer can print approximately 15mm per hour vertically (in Z-axis) or more in some circumstances.

SLA technology and no print heads to replace mean much less wasted print material. Use only the resin that is needed for each job and the rest can be stored for later.  Low-maintenance equipment and cost-effective pricing provide more for the money with iPrint 3D printers compared to competitors’ brands.

When orthodontists use the iPrint 3D printer for printing .STL files exported from Ortho Insight 3D software, the orthodontists have tools for a complete solution in their own offices. Orthodontists can create treatment plans that use transfer trays for indirect bonding, aligners for tooth movement, and other appliances including surgical drill guides and surgical splints.

Treatment planning with the Indirect Bonding module for Ortho Insight 3D avoids the tedious manual positioning of brackets on plaster models. Instead, orthodontists can simply use Ortho Insight 3D to precisely calculate the required bracket position for the intended tooth position, create the setup with virtual brackets on the 3D model, export the transfer tray files, and then print the transfer trays and other appliances with the iPrint 3D printer.
