At Dr. Hess Dentistry, your premier destination for cutting-edge dental solutions in Whiteland, Indiana. Our 3D printed dentures represent the pinnacle of modern dental technology, offering unmatched precision, comfort, and convenience for our patients.
What Are 3D Printed Dentures?
3D printed dentures are advanced dental prosthetics that leverage state-of-the-art digital scanning and printing technologies. At Dr. Hess Dentistry, we utilize these innovative techniques to create custom-fit dentures with exceptional accuracy and efficiency.
Why 3D-Printed Dentures Are a Great Choice.
Thanks to advanced digital scanning and computer-aided design (CAD), 3D-printed dentures can be customized precisely to the unique shape of your gums and jaw. That means a snug, comfortable fit that minimizes sore spots or shifting — often right from the very first day you wear them.
With 3D printing, we can preview and adjust tooth shape, size, color, and alignment before fabricating the final denture — helping ensure your smile looks natural and blends seamlessly with your facial features.
Faster Results, Fewer Visits.
Because the process uses digital impressions instead of physical molds, the turnaround is much faster than traditional denture fabrication. Many patients complete the process in just a few appointments and receive their dentures in days instead of weeks.
Easy Replacement — Peace of Mind for the Future.
Once your denture is designed and printed, we store your digital file. If your dentures are ever lost or damaged, we can quickly re-print a replacement — often without the need for a new scan or mold. That saves time and hassle.
Who 3D-Printed Dentures Are Best For.
- Patients who value speed, convenience, and fewer dental visits.
- Patients who have had difficulties with traditional dentures (slipping, sore spots, frequent adjustments).
- Patients who want a natural-looking, comfortable smile.
- Anyone who would appreciate a backup or easy replacement option.
Benefits of Choosing 3D Printed Dentures at Dr. Hess Dentistry:
1. Fewer Appointments: Our streamlined process reduces the number of appointments required to make dentures from five to just three, saving you time and hassle.
2. Enhanced Comfort: With fewer impressions needed, our digital scanning ensures a more comfortable experience throughout the denture-making process.
3. Trial-Run Denture: Experience peace of mind with our trial-run denture, allowing you to preview the final result before it's finalized. Keep the trial-run denture as a backup in case of loss or damage to the final denture.
4. Effortless Replacement: In the event of loss or damage to your denture, we keep a digital copy on file for quick and easy replacement, minimizing disruption to your daily life.
A Note on Durability and Fit.
While 3D-printed dentures offer many advantages, some studies have found that milled denture bases can exhibit slightly higher flexural strength under lab conditions.
In a small number of cases, patients have experienced slightly less retention or comfort compared to traditional dentures — though many report good or excellent fit.
