A 3-D printer built by dental professionals for dental professionals? That’s what you’ll get with Kulzer’s cara Print 4.0, which can print a variety of dental appliances with accuracy and precision in just minutes.

The cara Print 4 offers a faster, more economical method of producing polymer-based dental appliances in-house for practices and laboratories than traditional milling.

“While many 3-D printers are marketed to dental professionals, they weren’t built with the dental professional in mind,” says Lesley Melvin, Director of Marketing for Kulzer North America. “It was important that cara Print 4.0 be designed specifically for dental professionals, and that it be supported by Kulzer’s dental experts.”

With cara Print 4’s 3D-DLP technology, you’ll get precise, accurate results every time. Plus, the printer can create most appliances in 20 minutes or less thanks to the intelligent calculation of the illumination sequence, the mechanical movement of the z-axis and the design of the tray window. A touch screen makes operating the printer easy and allows you to verify your specifications prior to printing.

The printer comes with cara Print CAM software and accepts STL files, the format used by CAD programs, such as Dental Designer.

And the results are sure to impress you and your patients. The cara Print 4.0 results creates smoother, more homogeneous surfaces than competing 3-D printers, while the long-lasting resin tray remains transparent and stable.

Kulzer’s dima print materials are compatible with the cara Print 4; dima’s light-curing monomers for printing splints, night guards, impression trays, surgical guides, models, casts and dentures can help you create appliances that are perfect for your patients. For best results, use Kulzer’s HiLite Power 3-D post-curing unit for your additive manufactured objects.

Not only does the printer provide a cost-effective alternative to milling for certain indications, it is priced more competitively than many 3-D printers on the market. Plus, cara Print 4.0’s refill system is more cost-effective than a cartridge system.
