VOCO announces the launch of V-Print dentbase, their new permanent denture 3D printing resin for the production of removable permanent dentures. It is sedimentation-free, thus requires no shaking or rolling prior to use.  

V-Print dentbase comes in a natural gingival-shaded resin, can be polished to a high gloss and results in esthetic denture bases with high patient satisfaction. V-Print dentbase is biocompatible, tasteless and odorless for patient comfort and it features a high green state strength that ensures dimensional stability after removal from the platform.

V-print denture is compatible with all resins for characterization and with all standard reline materials for repairs, including VOCO’s award winning Ufi Gel reliners. Furthermore, it is validated for a variety of quality 3D printers, including those from Asiga, Dental Wings, RapidShape, Microlay, MiiCraft, Ackuretta, Shera, Straumann. And as with other V-Print resins, it is included in the design software from 3Shape and Exocad.

Introducing VOCO Retraction Paste, an astringent paste with aluminum chloride that effectively widens and dries the gingival sulcus, creating the ideal conditions for accurate and successful conventional or digital impressions.

VOCO Retraction Paste features a custom-engineered capsule with a long, fine, flexible plastic tip rather than metal, that avoids damage to the gingiva and allows for precise application. Its 2-stage viscosity makes for simple application. First, the paste easily flows under low pressure out of the capsule into the sulcus with minimal extrusion force, then once in place its viscosity increases to remain stable as it temporarily widens the sulcus. At 0.3 g per cap, VOCO Retraction Paste capsules contains enough material for up to three teeth.

Primarily used for the retraction of the marginal gingiva and moisture management of the gingival sulcus prior to analog or digital impressions, VOCO Retraction Paste can also be used to assist in the cementation of temporary and permanent restorations, and as preparation for Class II and V restorations.

The material itself comes in a bright turquoise blue color, providing high contrast to tooth structure and gingiva, ensuring that the paste is visible and can be easily rinsed off after only 1 – 2 minutes.

VOCO Retraction Paste can save up to 50% of the practitioner’s procedural time compared to other methods and brands, and it can be used as a replacement for, or in combination with a retraction cord.

VOCO is proud to present V-Print Splint Comfort, their new FDA 510k-cleared biocompatible 3D printing resin, for the production of clear, strong thermo-flexible therapeutic splints and night guards that are durable and esthetic.

V-Print Splint Comfort thermo-flexibility allows for a precise fit to the teeth for optimal patient comfort. The high flexural strength and excellent wear resistance permits the fabrication of devices as thin as 1mm. The easy to polish V-Print Splint Comfort is clear, color-stable and odorless. All V-Print resins are sedimentation-free and therefore do not require shaking or “rolling” prior to use.

V-Print Splint is part of a large and growing line of 3D printer materials from VOCO, and is engineered to work with, as well as validated for, a growing number of open-source 3D printers that include Asiga, Dental Wings, RapidShape, Microlay, MiiCraft, Ackuretta, Shera, and Straumann. And like all V-Print resins, it is included in the design software from 3Shape and Exocad.

VOCO presents the VOCO Caps Warmer, a preheating device for composite and nano-ORMOCER restorative unit dose capsules. The VOCO Caps Warmer can easily warm one unit-dose capsule while it is loaded in a VOCO Caps dispenser, and simultaneously warm four extra caps and two instruments, giving the device a total of seven warming bays.

The VOCO Caps Warmer assists in making composite and nano-ORMOCER restorative materials easier to extrude and manipulate, particularly if stored in a dry environment. Furthermore, warmer, more viscous material will have a softer consistency, allowing the material to better adapt to the imperfections, micro-etch pattern or small fissures within the prep. Warming an instrument will make the sculpting of a composite easier and more precise.

The VOCO Caps Warmer has three different temperature settings: 98 °F (37 °C), 130 °F (54 °C) and 155 °F (68 °C). Each temperature setting can be selected to achieve a different viscosity depending on the material being warmed, resulting in increased adaptation, and simplifying application.

The VOCO Caps Warmer is optimized for VOCO restorative capsules, allowing for the perfect fit and enabling the best heat transfer while also ensuring that all capsules and instruments are warmed uniformly. Warming VOCO composites will not decrease or modify their physical properties. The VOCO Caps Warmer simply changes the way in which the material functions temporarily, allowing for diversity in handling during placement.

Upon initial power up, the VOCO Caps Warmer reaches the desired temperature within 15-20 minutes, maintains a steady temperature throughout the day, and it is equipped with a mechanism that will turn the machine off after 10 hours of continuous use to avoid burning out the heating element. Once it reaches its set temperature, its ability to warm individual capsules depends on the specific material placed in the VOCO Caps Warmer but, in general, takes about three minutes.
