Stratasys' Inkjet Printing Technology Leads The Way, Pushing Digital Denture Precision To New Heights

In October 2025, the oral healthcare industry has been reinvigorated by Stratasys' digital denture technology. Chris Cabot, the newly appointed Vice President of Dental Business at the company, revealed during the introduction that the company has not only significantly reduced the number of patient visits in digital denture manufacturing but has also made breakthrough progress in precision control. In particular, its adopted inkjet printing technology has controlled the error in denture manufacturing within an extremely small range.

In the field of denture manufacturing, precision is a key indicator for measuring denture quality. The higher the precision, the better the fit between the denture and the patient's oral cavity, and the stronger the comfort and functionality for the patient when wearing it. Currently, widely used technologies in the industry such as DLP (Digital Light Processing) can reduce the error in denture manufacturing to ±200 microns. This precision level meets the needs of conventional dental restorations to a certain extent, but there is still room for improvement for patients with extremely high precision requirements.

Stratasys has keenly identified this market demand and continuously increased its investment in technological research and development. After years of efforts, the company has successfully adopted advanced inkjet printing technology for denture manufacturing. Chris Cabot proudly stated that the error of this inkjet printing technology can even be controlled within ±100 microns, far below the industry average.

To better understand the significance of this precision improvement, let's make a simple comparison. An error of ±200 microns means that there may be a certain gap between the denture and the oral cavity. Patients may feel discomfort when chewing food, and it may even affect the service life of the denture. An error of ±100 microns, on the other hand, greatly improves the fit between the denture and the oral cavity. Patients hardly feel the presence of the denture and can eat and speak more naturally.

A dentist with many years of experience in dental restorations, Dr. Li, said, "Stratasys' inkjet printing technology is truly a huge breakthrough. In the past, although we could achieve a certain level of precision in denture manufacturing, there were always some subtle errors. Now, with this technology, we can make more precise and comfortable dentures for patients, greatly improving patient satisfaction."

The precision improvement of digital denture technology not only meets patients' expectations for efficient and comfortable dental restorations but also injects new impetus into the development of the oral healthcare industry. With the continuous progress and improvement of technology, it is believed that Stratasys' digital denture technology will be applied in more fields in the future, bringing benefits to more patients. At the same time, this will also encourage other companies to increase their investment in digital technology research and development, driving the entire oral healthcare industry towards greater precision and efficiency.
