Why Choose Dental LT Comfort Resin?

Excellence in Every Print

The Formlabs Dental LT Comfort Resin Form 4, 5L is formulated to provide dental practitioners with a versatile, wear-resistant material that simplifies the creation of therapeutic appliances.

Medical-Grade Quality Assurance

Formlabs takes safety seriously. All BioMed and Medical Device Resins, including this one, are manufactured in an FDA-registered facility in Ohio. The production process adheres to a robust Quality Management System that is ISO 13485 and EU MDR certified. Produced in an ISO Class 8 clean room by a dedicated team, these resins are fully registered with the FDA and carry the CE mark, ensuring global compliance.

Using Dental LT Comfort Resin

Optimized for Patient Comfort

Engineered to be significantly more flexible than the standard Dental LT Clear Resin, the Dental LT Comfort Resin offers improved durability and superior patient feel. A key characteristic of this material is that the splint gradually becomes more flexible once placed in the mouth, adapting to the oral environment for optimal comfort. Printing at a layer height of 100 microns, it delivers precise fits and exceptional clarity.

Workflow and Resources

To achieve the best results, ensure you are using a biocompatible Formlabs SLA printer (such as the Form 4B or Form 4BL) with up-to-date firmware and the latest version of PreForm software. The workflow requires a compatible resin tank, build platform, and post-processing equipment like the Form Wash and Form Cure.

Printing Tips:

• Open the Dental Workspace in PreForm to select or create an occlusal guard template.
• Import your intraoral scans and let the software orient and support the splint automatically.
• If you encounter fitment issues with the default settings, try reducing the angle of the splints relative to the build platform.

Finishing and Post-Curing

Achieving the Perfect Finish

Proper post-processing is critical for biocompatibility and mechanical performance. Use the Form Wash to agitate the parts in a solvent bath, ensuring that any hollow models or internal channels are thoroughly flushed of liquid resin. If fit issues arise, clean the splints extensively with fresh solvent and compressed air.

Post-Curing Guidelines:

• Mandatory Curing: The resin requires post-curing to reach its final mechanical properties. Follow the official application guide settings strictly.
• Color Change: Newly cured parts may have a slight green tint, which will photobleach to a clear blue hue over time.
• Avoid Over-Curing: Do not exceed recommended settings to prevent discoloration.
• Support Removal: Allow parts to cool completely after curing before removing supports to prevent warping.
