The Nightguard Resin with Minimal Post-Processing Required

Glidewell TuffSplint™ Appliance Resin is a light-cured resin indicated for the fabrication of orthodontic and dental appliances, such as bite planes, mouthguards, nightguards, splints and repositioners. The printed nightguards are transparent and blue to resemble traditionally thermoformed nightguards.

When using this resin and printing with the fastprint.io™ 3D Printing Solution, you can skip the time, skill, and labor that is usually required for clear appliances with LuxCreo Digital Polishing™. This advanced resin technology makes it possible to print crystal-clear mouthguards straight out of the printer with minimal post-processing required.
