By embracing 3D printing, Dr. Shao empowered his clinic to produce intricate dental prosthetics more efficiently and after a number of years printing, the clinic needed something more robust and versatile to adapt to the rapid evolution of dental materials. In came the Ultra. The Asiga Ultra provided Dr Shao and his team access to the widest choice of dental materials available, moreover new highly filled materials for restorative cases.
Â
With many high fill ceramic resins coming to market the Ultra is perfectly positioned to process these due to having onboard heating via both Infrared and Chamber heating modules. Materials can now be heated to 70 degrees celcius drastically reducing viscosity and aiding accurate layer formation in a much faster time.
Dr. Shao’s adoption of 3D printing has helped streamline workflows and reduce turnaround times, offering patients swift access to bespoke solutions. As a result, Dr. Shao’s vision to embrace 3D printing and the Asiga Ultra has elevated the standard of dental care for his patients.
