Printed Models & Dies
High-resolution printed models & dies support restorative design, appliance fabrication and diagnostic communication. Files are prepared for dimensional stability and clear margins, so a printed model reads accurately and a removable die seats cleanly. Send an STL or PLY, choose solid, sectioned or die, and we print to spec.
Where printed models & dies fit
- Restorative design: Working models and removable dies for crown, bridge and implant fabrication.
- Appliance fabrication: Stable bases for guards, retainers and other appliances.
- Diagnostics and communication: Study models for planning, presentation and records.
Accurate, reproducible, archived
Because the model is printed from your digital file, printed models & dies reproduce exactly if you need another, without storing stone. For full-arch and aligner work, that repeatability keeps a whole treatment on one accurate record. We prepare files for dimensional stability, mark the margin clearly, and check the print before it ships.

Frequently asked questions
Send the digital scan (STL or PLY) or impression, a completed prescription, and the model type you need. Complete records let us produce printed models & dies to spec.
Yes. We accept major intraoral scanner workflows and open STL or PLY files. Contact our team if you need help connecting your scanner or transferring a case.
The standard estimate is 3 to 5 days in lab. Timing varies with volume and complexity, so confirm the current schedule when submitting.
Solid models, sectioned models and removable dies, printed in dental model resin. Tell us the workflow and our team recommends the right printed models & dies for the case.
Rush service may be available depending on case type, records and the production schedule. Call before sending so we can confirm feasibility and your requested delivery date.
