Intended Use
NextDent Denture 3D+ is a light-cured resin indicated for the fabrication of denture bases fabricated in dental laboratories, including full and partial removable dentures. The material is an alternative to traditional heat cured and auto polymerization resins. NextDent Denture 3D+ is intended exclusively for professional dental work. Fabrication of denture bases with NextDent Denture 3D+ requires a computer-aided and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) system that includes the following scanner, design software, additive printer and post-cure unit:
Device Story
NextDent Denture 3D+ is a light-cured, methacrylate-based resin used for 3D printing denture bases. The system requires a CAD/CAM workflow: 3Shape scanner/design software, NextDent 5100 Figure 4 3D printer, and NextDent LC-3DPrint Box for post-curing. The resin is polymerized via photo-initiators using light exposure. Used in dental laboratories by technicians; output is a custom-fabricated denture base. The device benefits patients by providing an alternative to traditional heat-cured or auto-polymerizing resins for removable prosthetics. Proper mixing and post-curing are critical for material quality and biocompatibility.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Compliance with ISO 20795-1:2013 (denture base polymers) and ISO 10993-1:2009/C1:2010 (biocompatibility) demonstrated. Testing included flexural strength, flexural modulus, water sorption, water solubility, residual monomer, and comprehensive biocompatibility (cytotoxicity, sensitization, irritation, systemic toxicity, genotoxicity).
Technological Characteristics
Methacrylate-based resin with photo-initiators, fillers, and pigments. Polymerization via visible light in 3D printer and post-cure light chamber. Compliant with ISO 20795-1 (Type 4 materials) and ISO 10993. Non-sterile; 2-year shelf life. Requires specific CAD/CAM ecosystem (3Shape scanner/software, NextDent 5100 printer, LC-3DPrint Box).
Indications for Use
Indicated for fabrication of full and partial removable denture bases in dental laboratories by professional dental personnel.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A denture relining, repairing, or rebasing resin is a device composed of materials such as methylmethacrylate, intended to reline a denture surface that contacts tissue, to repair a fractured denture, or to form a new denture base. This device is not available for over-the-counter (OTC) use.
